A lot of work has gone into organising this epic trip—some might say “Adventure.” As always, there are the usual things: passports and tickets, but we found there are many different laws to abide by in different countries.
For example, did you know that in Turkey, you’re not allowed to fly a drone? It is unclear, however, whether it’s permissible to cross the country with a drone, providing it is not used.
As a result, we thought it more prudent for our support crew to meet us with the drone in Bulgaria.
We did some planning for this, so a couple of weeks ago, we took our support vehicle (a VW camper van) to Bulgaria where it’s waiting for us. That was quite a trip in itself!
We struggled a little with the French toll booth tag (“blip and go”)…
Seeing so much beautiful scenery through eight countries in just two days has given us a real flavour of what we might expect on the longer adventure to come. We’re pretty excited about everything we will experience on our 9-day trip in the MG!
We are now ready to depart; watch this space for the next update.
