I am in awe, and humbled. I can relate to some of those experiences - whether in the pics or in writing. I am inspired.

I THANK ALL OF YOU for sharing these moments which is almost too intimate/personal, and emotional, to be put down in words.

:notworthy:

I have one question MJ, excuss my ignorence but I think its called neap tide when it goes out further and comes up higher, well for the question, was this the tide at the time that you guys where there?

Don't wanna give it away, MJ will tell you in the next episode of......................Days of our lives.

I've read one or two 4x4 reports (4x4 overland forum) about that "doodsakker" section and they made my blood run cold.  In them the writers made no bones about being very scared.  I planned to go to Angola and mentally noted that I would never do that section.

I thought it might be easier by bike except for the logistics etc.  You guys have shown that it's like a day in the Dakar but without support.

So I'm hugely impressed and respectful of your courage and daring. Tough men.

censored....


i realised afterwards, that my initial response was a bit harsh for the family forum..but it's just such an amazing piece of writing... im still not over it 4 hours later...

Spring tide is what you describe.
Neap tide is the opposite; when there is the least difference between high & low tide.
2 spring (& neap) tides each month - more or less.

MJ: I repeat what I wrote before: you write bloody well.  Brilliant.

 

[popipants]

You guys better hope that your wifes does not read this report....otherwise you are going to be in the same boat as Plothond!!

 

[Wolf]

[africanSky]

Thanks again for all the effort in sharing your experience with us.
