JULY
2008 - We've made it

When
we last heard from the intrepid Outside Edge adventurers they were
full of optimism and fired up by the beauty of our own South African
coastline. This is the final story, of the long and sometimes dangerous
journey that has tracked the outline of Africa through 33 countries.
The battered expedition Land Rovers roar towards the Cape of Good
Hope finishing point. “It’s a race against time,”
says Kingsley Holgate. “We want to empty the much travelled
calabash back into the cold south Atlantic on Madiba’s birthday.
The great man has been such an inspiration to this odyssey, his
picture with our family and his handwritten message
in the Scroll of Peace and Goodwill, has encouraged thousands of
others who live
along the outside edge of Africa to endorse its pages. We’d
like to thank all
who have followed our story, its been great to have your support
so please join us in the final countdown to the longest and most
exciting humanitarian journey
ever undertaken.
