arrival

We arrived at Heathrow airport in the early
morning hours of June 24, 2007. Our gear
would soon be expanded into cycling mode...

We set out from Heathrow onto cool, misty, quiet roads. The feeling of being in a different place, on a different continent were intense, and exhilarating.









































We rode towards a campsite in Chertsey where we had stayed on our first trip abroad in 1996. The scents of late spring and early summer brought welcome feelings of nostalgia.
