Two Weeks to Go
Man, two weeks to go... I can't believe it! Pretty scary to be honest but I am really excited. I've got most of my kit together now and am in the process of packing all my worldly goods to put into storage. I'm moving out on the 23rd (Saturday). Matty H is coming down to drive the hire van up to Yorkshire. Bang me stuff in the garage and then hop it to Manchester for final farewells. I'm only finishing work on Friday so it's all a bit stressful at the moment. Still, it's keeping life interesting as I'm desperately trying to learn Spanish, sharpening my bird identifying skills (sorry, sharpening? More like blagging) and in an intense fitness program of... erm... trying not to smoke as much. Looks like I'll be set then! As for what it is I'm going to be doing in Ecuador you can visit the company's website here and the specific project I'll be working on can be found here. If you're interested the website is pretty good but in a constant state of change so the link might not work for long.
Probably my two best pieces of kit so far are my bins (binoculars for Bill Oddie ing) and my new camera... Pentax istDL. Here's a shot I took the other day before boarding the London Eye:
Taking a digital camera to a rainforest might not be the best idea. Hmm. Got to try it though. If anyone's got any tips on keeping it dry etc, please feel free to share them.
Incidentally, watch this, it's unblievable!
