A few months back, you may remember a post about two friends leaving\u00a0their jobs and\u00a0comforts of home life to hop on a Land Cruiser and drive around the world<\/a>. At the time of that post, it was March, they had just checked off Central America, and were heading south towards Buenos Aires.<\/p>\n

I popped back onto their blog<\/a> yesterday to check out the progress.\u00a0They have\u00a0successfully made\u00a0it through South America, with an apparent extended stay in B.A. (who can blame them?). Then,\u00a0back to the master\u00a0plan, shipped their ’96 Land Cruiser over to\u00a0South Africa to take on the wilds of both the cities of\u00a0Johannesburg and Durban, as well as\u00a0the actual wilds of Kruger National Park.<\/p>\n

Their most recent post<\/a> is makes me want to fill up the gas tank and head to South Africa (something doesn’t sound right about that). It is filled with some amazing shots from their “safari” thorough the park (seen above), the\u00a0adventures of finding a camp\u00a0each night, and the history and observations of their current location — Mozambique.<\/p>\n

One problem that\u00a0snuck up on the pair:\u00a0not enough room in their passports.\u00a0I can’t say I’ve ever had that issue yet . . . must be nice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
