The World by Road is now currently in Sydney, Australia. It is hard to believe that we have been gone for nearly a month. Fiji is a distant but prominent memory and we hardly had a chance to catch our breath after the Canyon Swing before we had to leave New Zealand. I wish we could have spent more time […]

Thrill ride of a Lifetime
March 16, 2007 – 12:38 am
I have done a few crazy things in my life and have been known to push the edge a little bit from time to time when prompted, but I have to say that today presented one of those thrill seeking moments that truly struck fear into my core. Queenstown New Zealand is home to some […]
Km’s and Cops
March 11, 2007 – 5:14 pm
We have been here in New Zealand for a little over 2 weeks now and have been on the road here for just as long. Getting used to driving a right hand drive car on the left hand side of the road is actually not that difficult although they do have a few yielding laws […]
We are on the South Island now.
March 7, 2007 – 8:39 pm
Hello everyone. It has been a few days and a lot has been going on. We are currently in Hamner Springs in the heart of the Southern Alps on the South Island of New Zealand. We have been on the South Island for a few days after having crossed over on the Cook Strait ferry […]
New Zealand Update
March 1, 2007 – 5:16 pm
It has been a busy first week out of the country for Steve and I. Hard to believe it is day 9, but when you think that we still have 2 years or so to go, it isn’t much at all. Fiji went by in a blur and we spent 3 days in Auckland getting […]
South of the Equator… in part
February 22, 2007 – 6:22 pm
You could say that this is our first blog entry from the road, although we are not really on the road just yet. As I sit on the deck of the lodge house we are staying at on Malolo Island in Fiji, I am greeted by the smell of fresh air, the sight of crystal […]
TWBR Hits the Road
February 15, 2007 – 9:27 pm
Well, the moment we have been waiting for for nearly 2 years has finally arrived. Steve and I left Denver on Monday February 12th at about 5 in the evening. We were planning on leaving several hours earlier but it took a lot longer to leave than we estimated. It was pretty emotional as Steve […]
Expedition Team Update
January 30, 2007 – 1:28 pm
In planning for an expedition of this nature, ultimately some things do not pan out as planned. It is an inevitable component of something on a scale such as this. We greatly appreciate all of the work and effort that Duane Batcheler put into trying to make this expedition a success. Duane is a great […]
What Brown Can’t do for You
December 29, 2006 – 5:36 pm
So here is a little vent of a blog post, but it needs to be done because we here at TWBR have had so many horrible experiences with United Parcel Service (UPS)(aka – brown). Writing tends to be therapeutic for me so here it is. Over the course of the last several months Steve and […]
DCIS Assembly
December 6, 2006 – 11:46 am
It has been a very busy couple of weeks for the TWBR crew. As you know, we are getting very close to our departure date next month, so everyone is running around trying to finalize as much as possible before we leave. In my last post, I mentioned our education initiative. We have been very […]
