Thanks Nathalie. They tend to scare small children though.

But I did spend a night in Auckland a couple of months ago, so we might have got caught in some kind of wormhole. So to speak.

― teeny (teeny), Sunday, 27 August 2006 13:18 (nineteen years ago)

No, I decided to be ILX-free for a year while I did it, and set up a completely seperate website instead, which more and more people joined as our journey progressed.

In a nutshell, we bought this car ("Clarice") in Vancouver for 250 bucks (knowing next to nothing about cars):

http://img177.imageshack.us/img177/2039/img10851dy9.jpg http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/1176/img10881xr9.jpg

We drove her - or rather swerved her - up through the snow and ice of the Canadian Rockies, down the west coast of the States, through Nevada and Arizona, all the way round the roadkill-strewn coast of Mexico, through the hurricane-ravaged roads of Guatemala (illegally, as it turns out), then onto mentalist Belize City, where we managed to sell her for 800 bucks to a lovely man named Santa. She's now being hired out to tourists in the city (If you're ever there, say hello).

It took us 7 months. And I'd do it all again tomorrow. This is a terrible cliché, but it really is hard adjusting back to some perception of 'normality'.

In hindsight, I wish there was an 'epic' travel thread. And if there is I can't find it.

― Huey in Melbourne (Huey in Melbourne), Sunday, 27 August 2006 19:33 (nineteen years ago)

$250 for what to me looks like a pretty decent car? WAHT?

― Scourage (Haberdager), Sunday, 27 August 2006 19:36 (nineteen years ago)

Yeah, Craiglist Vancouver is really good for buying used cars. Obviously not being petrolheads we had to trust the guy we bought it off, but he was really helpful. Plus, it had a Jaguar symbol and mother-of-pearl seatbelt trimming:

The brakes failed a couple of times - not a huge amount of fun when trying not to crash on steep volcanic roads - but other than that she was a bargain.

Everything was red, except for flashes of chrome.
She was the ultimate porndisco car.

Incidentally, we're also planning to travel back from Australia to the UK over land/sea, and take a year doing it. Perhaps that's worth a thread on its own!

The site (The Arc) was mainly for posting images and staying in touch with friends back home and those we made on the way, rather than a linear blog or diary, something I quite regret because it's a great story.

Apologies for minor thread highjack.

it's a pretty great beard though! red! you should grow it bigger around the chin/sides of mouth, less goatee-like, more impressive.
