Title: Long way Down........
Post by: Danie on November 16, 2008, 10:03:09 AM

..........from Holland, through Africa - and heading for the Southpole - alone....... on a tractor !

This is a very interesting trip by a brave young lady, and the trip report and  nice pics about Africa can be viewed at:

(Unfortunately most of the trip report on the first page is in Duch, but the rest of the report on the other pages is in English)

Wow!  GREAT Photos.  I want to read more.  :D

Sort of like the story about the old man who traveled half way across the US on a riding lawn mower.  Except times 10!

Why a tractor?

What a woman!

I always knew a tractor could go almost anywhere, but never considered that someone would have the patience to drive one any farther than they absolutely had to.  Wish I could send a link to my long passed friends I farmed with almost a half century ago.
