I’m ready for Namibia

[Please note: This is a re-transcript of my original notes from the expedition to Namibia in 2002 combined with the notes/blog from another member as my original diary was lost. It was also edited in 2016 to remove photos of one of the group members – see my post containing a statement at the end of this category]

I’m all packed and ready for my expedition. There are 16 of us plus 2 group leaders from World Challenge Expeditions going to Namibia for a month – firstly to improve the sports facilities of a school in the town of Gibeon but also to have some fun. We have dune boarding, trekking, town visits and more planned and are meeting at our school today for last minute preparations before leaving for Heathrow in the morning.

All packed!
All packed!

I’m hoping I didn’t forget anything – not sure how easy it’ll be to get things out there.
