Sam Goes Walkies:
Trip Diary

 

Monday, February 27, 2006: 2 weeks to go...

Well its just two weeks now until I go, infact Id actually be there by now.
In Delhi, doing something, probably sleeping as they are 10 hours ahead.

Anyway, time for an update.

Last weekend - the 18th February, met with some of my fellow trekkers down at ActionAid HQ in London, was an interesting experience, was briefed as to what we have instore and head of us, lots of walking mainly it seems. And sleeping in tents. My fellow trekkers seem fun though, and I expect come the end of it we will all be good friends.

This weekend just been - the 25th February, I went with my Dad up and down Snowdon as a practice run. Was challenging, but survivable. Main problems were due to a lot of snow and ice at the top and not having spikes to cut in on the walk upwards, so it was one step forwards, 12 steps backwards. Total trip time was about 7 hours of solid walking which is a good practice run.
No ill effects afterwards either. Hopefully I can post some photos from this online to give the gallery page a bit of content.
