WE have arrived in Armenia and plan to go to the orphange this morning. The whole trip is for the charity and I cant wait to see the children and adults faces!!!!!
\We all made it here safely, although we left our car on the side of the road, as did others….. alot of repairs, and temporary fixes to the cars!!!!
sorry we have not had alot of time to update, if you are my friend it may be easier to just go to my facebook, and if you want to be my friend ask me and i will add you!!!!!
this has been certainly an adventure of a lifetime already!!!! the countries we have visited, the wild roads we are driving, the people we meet ,the languages and trying to communicate. The different currency in each country and conversions are nuts!!The gas prices are so so strange and hard to decipher. The race teams are great people from all over the world..there arre someo ther canadians from Toronto and one from Australia with a canadian from BC. We are very tired after driving the wild curvy non existence some times roads our car is very old 1993 and no power at all we have nick named her chitty chitty bang bang. the steering wheel is huge and very ahrd to turn around each corner. the gear shift is looseand hard to get into gears and fith gear and reverse we hit each others legs!!! but all in all a good fun vehcile to drive. The sponsers that gave us money towards our gas and insurnace etc, are displayed with decals THANK YOU!!!! We have had 2 Canadian Flags stolen off the car though, too bad i guess t hey really wanted them. we have hadned out toys and candy only in Albania so far, as the poor little ones have so little there, their main transportaion there in the high mountains cities is horse or foot. The y loved a smile or a wave as we drive through, The sharp curves and no guard rails is nerve racking to sasy the least, but the country is so so beautiful!!!! Abit of trash garbage though!!!!! Cows, goats or sheep can be found inthe middle of the roads, as can rocks, huge holes etc. the roads are very narrow and the odd b it of asphalt here and there.. We have totally enjoyed hte sights so far, and so much more to come, We toured macodenia yesteray and now into Greece today 8 countires in 4 days is not too bad!!!!!
