The idea of entering the Valley of the Kings was too good to turn down. Made it feel a lot more like a real adventure (particularly as my vertigo was not helped by the fact that I was sure my donkey was about to run off ovr the side of a cliff...)
We all named our donkeys, there was Simon, Eeyore, Falafel, and "Oh-my-god-stop-don't-go-there".

Paul & Amy left NZ in September 2005 on a global pursuit of decent coffee.
This quest has taken us to about twenty different countries (or a new one every couple of months), and there are many more still on the list. Not only have we learnt about coffee but we can now tell the difference between mint tea in various north African states. We have perfected the art of travelling with carry on luggage only with all liquids in containers of les than 100mls. And on every ryanair flight we swear it will be last. And the last one really was.
We are now off on the adventure of a life time. With no jobs, no house, and no particular responsibilities we will be travelling through Europe, the Middle East and Africa, no doubt still looking for decent coffee. And the best bit, we're not travelling with carry on, so can carry large-ish bottles of liquid!
