The Fears: August 2006
http://thefears.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Married couple rapidly approaching middle age continue to try and cling onto their youth. Tuesday, August 01, 2006. I think it's fair to say that this trip has done both Lynne and I the world of good - we have helped each other through the difficult times that have occasionally emerged and both feel at peace now with our current situation. The next part of the adventure will undoubtedly begin when we arrive home. After all, life is not a dress rehearsal. Lynne outside the Gold Museum in Bogota. The wonde...

The Fears: June 2006
http://thefears.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Married couple rapidly approaching middle age continue to try and cling onto their youth. Friday, June 30, 2006. 28 - 30 June 2006.Welcome to Bogota. Bogata completely took me by surprise. I had no idea what to expect from the capital of a country I knew nothing about - I imagined Colombia to be a crime ridden, dangerous country where drugs and violence are the order of the day and I would almost certainly be kidnapped if I ventured out after dark. How wrong could I have been. During the afternoon we stu...

The Fears: May 2007
http://thefears.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Married couple rapidly approaching middle age continue to try and cling onto their youth. Saturday, May 05, 2007. 15-21 April 2007 - Paris. From one European capital to another there is no getting away from it, Matt and I are city people and as much as I like the idea of an idyllic country life away from the hustle and bustle of London it's simply unlikely to happen for quite some time. And not only that, our carbon footprint remained relatively low. The food market from the bottom of Rue Mouffetard.

Married couple rapidly approaching middle age continue to try and cling onto their youth. Sunday, April 30, 2006. 22 - 29 April. Rapa Nui. Ahu Kote Riku at sunset. Ahu Akivi - the only group of Moai to be found inland and Matt s favourite spot on the island. Ahu Akivi - Lynne is top left to give some idea of scale. The fifteen Moai of Ahu Tongariki at sunrise. The eight toppled Moai of Ahu Vinapu exhude a sense of absolute futility. A beautiful sunny morning at Ahu Nau Nau. The majority of the moai lie s...

The Fears: March 2006

Married couple rapidly approaching middle age continue to try and cling onto their youth. Friday, March 31, 2006. 22-30 March.Eight days and one change of clothes. Just another day in Torres Del Paine National Park! Torres del Paine National Park, Chile. Cloud descended upon an Argentinian mountain across the border from Chile as we descended to Refugion Dickson at the end of day five. The highlight was undoubtedly the hike over the Gardner Pass, a part of the park that most people miss because of the di...

The Fears: January 2006

Married couple rapidly approaching middle age continue to try and cling onto their youth. Wednesday, January 25, 2006. 25 January 2006 - a sprinkling of unconventionality. The trip is fast approaching and I'm still more nervous than Matt. Crazy really, considering it was my idea in the first place and it's taken over two years to get to this point. Posted by The Fears @ 11:56 AM. Sunday, January 15, 2006. 15 January 2006 - dull stuff - how much will it all cost? Budget is $30 each a day. Saturday, Januar...

Married couple rapidly approaching middle age continue to try and cling onto their youth. Sunday, May 28, 2006. 27 May 2006.Cañon de Palca. The triple peaked Illimani tops out at 6439 metres. This track took us down into the Cañon with Nevado Illimani dominating the skyline. After an hour or so we descended into the Cañon itself. Its red sandstone pillars towered on either side and a small river meandered between the rocks and boulders. We are in the dry season at the moment so the river was a me...I ve ...

The Fears: November 2006

Married couple rapidly approaching middle age continue to try and cling onto their youth. Friday, November 24, 2006. 19 July 2006 - Learning to dive. Our day started at early at the Poseiden Dive Centre in Taganga. Mad Max from Munchen, our tattoo covered dive instructor, greeted us in the customary curt German manner. Why are they always so serious? After struggling into our wetsuits and donning the equipment we headed down to the beach. I was amazed at how heavy the gear was and as we walked toward...
