Hi. We will be heading up the West Coast but at the moment have no clue how long it will take to care there. Keep an eye on us (I will make an effort to be more productive) and hopefully we can meet...
Right, so the laptop has been un-murdered and we can resume posting. We are currently in Porto Seguro getting our act together before we head north for Salvador city, Natal and Forteleza. After a few...
Sorry for the lack of updates, my wife semi killed my laptop by dropping it out of the Landy and finding camps with wifi has been an issue. Tech troubles aside all is well with the Bell family and we...
Hi Merv. We are heading North while you are heading south. I am sure we will meet up somewhere along the way. The southern Brazil coast has been awesome and cheap with plenty of safe camping. Bon...
I understand, it is an unfortunate reality. I guess that is why I only took a photo of the flag. We are enjoying Montevideo but have just heard that the Landy will probably be delayed until Monday so...
I had my first run in with the South American Policia today! It had to happen eventually, you can't stumble through life being as silly as I am without attracting any attention. The family and I had...

Hi Merv.
That is really helpful! I assume the Mog didnt go in a container. I think that is where our costs come in because there are unloading and dock...
There are a few names for english speaking S Africans. There is Rooinek (red neck) which I believe does not mean the same thing in the states) Soutie comes from - one leg in Africa, one leg in...
Hi Espen.
Africa and Braai go hand in hand. I m glad you are enjoying Malawi.

Ja nee, dis nou n groot trek vir die souties. Ons gan ons Afrikaanse taal mooi gebruik in die Amerikas.
In other words... (direct translation)
Yes no, this now a big trek for the salties...
Thanks Jerry.
It will take us quite a while to get up to Cental America. We will be happy to miss the Alaskan winter so we will pace ourselves to get there in summer.
Cheers
Hi Jessejman.
Thanks for the comment. My wife can be a bit of a clean freak. Usually after a long day on a dusty backroad she will tidy the Landy and wipe away the dust, but the biggest challenge is...
Hey guys.
We will be following in your tracks soon so we look forward to meeting you. But first... your post got us really curious. How on earth did you manage to land the truck in MV without...
Hello.
We are an African family who will be shipping our Land Rover Defender to South America and then driving from Argentina to Alaska. Here is some background:...
Thanks! We will definetly try and be there!
Hi guys.
Just want to share why I am interested in the US rallies. Have a look at this thread...
The organisers are busy planning next years rally. Maybe you should book a ticket to South Africa :)
The Festival was held in Vereeniging, a town just outside Johannesburg, South Africa.
The first pic is of our Malaria No More stand at the festival and the second is of my buddy James from...
Here are some pics from our little convoy on the way to the festival. We hadn't planned to drive with the orange G4 Landy's, we just happened to meet them at the midway campsite and joined forces. We...
