Kenya, Saturday 26 August 2006 - Rune Ovlien left Cape2Cape for Dubai on Saturday

Rune know how to travel on "the bright side", meaning; He likes it a bit more comfortable than the average tourist. That's why he sign up for cape2cape in the first place, and thats why his next destination is Hilton Jumairah Beach hotel in Dubai!

More than four weeks together with Rune was a treat for me as well, as I got to see places that I normally would have avoided when travelling alone. What Betsy's opinion is, I don't know, but I guess she liked the idea of getting a facelift and changing a few spare parts as well. All in all a great travel companion.

Betsy and myself will now try to readjust and ignore the fancy restaurants, hotels with shiny white tiles and comfortable lounges and swimming pools. What will happen when the next "predator" is arriving, we dare not to think about, but he is also known to like fabric white instead of paper napkins and I am not sure if he ever drank out of a plastic glass before. I am talking about my brother that arrives on Monday 28th.

Betsy will take me back to Tanzania and the hectic town Arusha on Sunday, lets hope it will be thrilling!
