Goa
Hello, apologies for the silence, text haven't got through.
Have made it to Goa, and have been relaxing on the beach and sleeping in a beach hut. Not far to go now, weather and scenery amazing. Sea food a welcome change after two weeks of curry. Have bumped into loads of teams now were on the final stretch.
It almost feels like we've finished yet there's still 1000km to go and rumours the road has been blocked.
Speak soon, hope you're enjoying the snow. we're off to the sea to cool down.

In Agra!
Hello all. Watched the sun set over a hazy Taj Mahal last night with the Rickshaw Nightriders, Tuk Tuk Goose, and Tukelicious (so feel free to check their blogs if we're too lazy/disorganized to post!). All going well so far, exhaust fell off the rickshaw but Marc's roadside bodge-job has done the business. Headed South this afternoon, hoping it'll start getting warmer soon! We've been told that the Queen's face which a Nepali guy painted on the side of our rickshaw looks a lot like Jon. I double checked this morning and can confirm that they are, in fact, identical.

Everythings going smashingly, we finally made it through the desert. The car has sand in every nuck and cranny and we're not much different. We're finally going over the mali border today!

we set up a lovely little camp last night, which blew down meaning nobody got any sleep. We are deep in the desert now, police checks are annoying

In Marrakech lastnight where every man, dog, horse, moped, bicycle and policeman was on the road. Marc used the horn like a true little local.
