Map

We've had requests for a more visual rendering of our itinerary (Tasha!), so Al plugged all our stops into Google Maps and you can check it out here.  Pretty cool, eh?!  You can even click on most of the markers to see where we're staying.

It's really real...

Well, it's really going to happen.  We've spent the last week finalizing the route and booking our accommodations along the way.  (that's 83 different b&bs, inns and hotels)  And today we booked our plane tickets to London and home from Inverness.

I have our itinerary on a google document that I hope you can see here .  We still have to confirm 5-6 of the places, but the bulk are set.  So to all of you interested in joining us, now you can see where we'll be.

iPad trial

I'm posting this from our iPad, which hopefully will be how we'll do blog on the walk.

I just discovered that I can't post pictures from the iPad without an app, so I'll try that next time.

As far as our prep goes, we are firming up our schedule and have started booking accommodations. I'll put the link to the google doc up soon. We've both got our boots, rain jackets and a supply of wool clothes.

That's it for now. This is just a test.
