You can all stop being jealous now

Triple whammy today. The first was always going to happen. It is day 67, so we are two-thirds through, twice as close to coming home as going away. At this rate our 16500km so far will turn into about 25000 all up, or about 20% above the nominal distance I calculated.

The second was that we had our first pack up in the rain, with a tent that leaked, so pretty much everything was wet.

The third was the we have now passed south of the latitude of home. We can no longer have you jealous of us being up north for the winter. Still, it is spring tomorrow, so hopefully we have missed the worst of it.

Just so you know that we cover all of the important milestones, we had lunch at precisely the latitude crossover point. Here’s the proof…

Think of us poor souls suffering the elements as you tuck yourselves up in bed tonight.
