And you thought we were mad!

Now if anyone is thinking we were a little nuts, how about this:

Friday

Met a guy in Kas yesterday, name of Ash (Ashley) had been taking some time out after University, had bought a second hand bike in Katmandu, and was travelling back to Shrewsbury in the U.K..... and the bike a Royal Enfield Bullet 350cc. Although these are still made in India the basic bike is still a 1950's design.

He visited Napal, India, Pakistan, Iran, Turkey Syria, Jordan, then back to Syria and Turkey again. He'd set off this morning to Bodrum, intending to take a couple of days, and then catching the mini ferry to Kos, then on ferry hopping to Venice.
To think we'd gone from Croatia to Italy to avoid (wots the place) because it was supposed to be a little unsafe.

Hats off to you Ash, hope the rest of your trip goes safe and well, and you manage to avoid the 'old bill' on the last leg.
