We're off!

We are officially off. The day began with free english breakfast in a hyde park hotel and then with a short drive to the start. There ensued chaotic scenes as forty mad pairs of travellers congregated in hyde park. Massive thanks to my family and friends for such an awesome send off. Taking the biscuit had to be my sister and here family who managed to turn up by suprise and produce an enormous banner saying 'ghengis can't but panda's can'. Class.
