In an effort to reduce the load in my bags I went through all the stuff again and took out literally anything that I possibly could. My Freeloader solar power panel was going to be for charging the phone in the 'wilderness' but it is heavy and takes forever and ever..it is also very rain adverse. So i decided to ditch it and leave it at the flat. Instead I have found a cool free solar charger app for my phone, it claims to charge the phone up if i jus tleave it open in the sun! pretty cool! I also have a mains charger for the odd motel and a car cigarette charger for the 'odd' motorist lol!

Today I have also had 4 VS Planet friends in America offer to meet up with me at various points along the route. The distances are vast, but hopefully I will catch up with each of them!

One thing i wont be sad to see the back of is all this English rain..Ha ha!
