Ten Months in Africa: Overland from Casablanca to Cape Town
Wednesday August 30, 2006 at 7:00pm
REI San Carlos
1119 Industrial Rd Ste 1B
San Carlos, California 94070 Get Directions
In December 2004, independent travelers Teresa O’Kane and Scott Soper rented their Bay Area house, and set out with full backpacks to travel overland from Casablanca, Morocco to Cape Town, South Africa. Tonight, Teresa and Scott will share slides and stories of their 10-month adventure, traveling by truck, train, bush taxi, dugout canoe and bicycle rickshaw, through off-the-beaten-path West Africa, Ethiopia and Madagascar. Come experience the wonders of this vast continent, as you trek the Dogon Escarpment in Mali, explore the ancient cities of Axum and Lailabela in northern Ethiopia, travel by pirogue down Madagascar’s Tsiribihina River, and camp on tree platforms to watch wildlife in Zambia’s Luangwa National Park.
Additional dates/venues:
