drive from Sydney to London
In
April 2006 Patrick and Colleen Edwards set off to drive from Sydney to London.
The idea was to drive across Australia to Darwin, take a ferry to East Timor and
inter-island ferries through Indonesia to Singapore and then drive overland from
Singapore through Malaysia, Thailand Laos and China. They would drive on the
Karakorum Highway over the Himalayas from China to Pakistan and on through Iran
and Turkey, then across Europe to England
Here
are some of the audience for this very interesting talk.
Note Jason
was the tour guide in China at the time.

Driving
To London
In April 2006
Patrick and Colleen Edwards set off to drive from Sydney to London. The idea
was to drive across Australia to Darwin, take a ferry to East Timor and
inter-island ferries through Indonesia to Singapore and then drive overland
from Singapore through Malaysia, Thailand Laos and China. They would drive on the
Karakorum Highway over the Himalayas from China to Pakistan and on through Iran
and Turkey, then across Europe to England.
Things didn’t
always go according to plan and they had plenty of adventures along the way. The
journey from Singapore to London took six months! Some highlights:

They were robbed in Australia

Offered heroin in Laos

Met the most honest man in China
·
Arrested in Pakistan
· Almost refused entry into Romania
(because the Romanians couldn’t distinguish between Austria and Australia).
