ripleydavenport 1 place remaining... Last chance to join the team if you want to take a light walk through an oversized sandpit in the company of some moody, spitting four legged ships of the desert.

c0d3m0nk3y Hey Ripley, me & my wife are both REALLY interested in the trip, however, it will rely largely on whether we can afford it. So, any better estimate on how much it would cost? Moreover, we are Egyptians, so can that be handled? I mean, we will be flying in from a different place.

Norrie
Norrie Hi, Ripley, have sent you an e mail (await your response) and would request you mail me full details of the trek. I note that you have a minimum age limit, do you also have a maximum? Yours, Norrie Brax.

ripleydavenport
ripleydavenport Hi Norrie. Interesting question about an upper age limit. Well, No - but you should be physically fit for an active life. It will be a demanding trek but something of this magnitude demands, in addition, a high mental fitness. Why not send me an email with a introduction?

Lauren For those seriously thinking of joining - Put Steve Blethyn's blog into your favourites: http://blethyn.blogspot.com/ He's the Expedition Medic and is writing about the health & medical related issues you should be aware of before (and during) the adventure next year.

Mike Thanks for the link Lauren... Steve, awesome source of information; great work... I might even focus on getting used to your special drink before Gobi 2011 is just around the corner. Oh I'm esepcially interested in your research into drinking water purification and that UV light tool you mentioned... Personally, I don't really want 'Gobi Gut' to round out the complete experience. Cheers.
