Rain, thunder and lightning accompanied me packing up the Zoco bike. The box had been kept in the garage for a couple of months and was already a bit damp. Anyways, a few miles of rope, several rolls of tape, a few hours of sweating, and it is done. Hope the box stays together till Hanoi! Europeans pack these things much better, they have boxes that allow the wheels to poke out and you can roll the box! Saves you taking off the wheel too, but our airlines dictate that the front wheel comes off. One more day in Tasmania!

Walter van Praag has Cystic Fibrosis and does inspirational adventures to raise awareness and funds for CF and encourage people to become Organ Donors. This year Walter is travelling to the USA to get Phage Therapy to eradicate an antibiotic-resistant bacteria out of his lung. Phage Therapy is a serious contender to replace, or at least adjunct antibiotics treatment to fight antibiotic-resistant infections.
