My arm, the pin cushion

Yes today the immunisations started. My left arm is very sore indeed. Ahhh this is the sign that departure is not far away.

Preparations are in full swing. Eight days ago I didn't have my passport, today I have three visas - Kazakhstan, Vietnam and Cameroon. So that give you, dear reader, a hint as to some of the places I am visiting in this 2011 adventure. Three weeks to go now...
