Just a quick update today. Andrew and I got separated when we passed though a town so we spent the afternoon riding alone. He took a different route from me that went through a National Park and apparently got the best views of the trip, which I missed. I think a theme is developing.

We’ve had the great joy of being joined by Andrew's father Stuart for a few days and I’m enjoying getting to know this fine man. We are camped with him near Mutare in The Eastern Highlands of Zimbabwe and are debating the next few days as there are a number of route options.

It looks like we’ll plump for heading into Mozambique early tomorrow and trying to get all the way North and then East into Malawi. It's a long way though, over 700 KM on unknown roads with unsure gas supplies and through a border that has issues.

Ah the adventure! It’s going to be a fun day!
