Once you reach a peak, a bit of a rest is surely in order. Actually, Rob and Sarah were ill during the whole trip, so their fellwalking demonstrated particular persistence.

The hiking boot: noble symbol of our determination.
Which isn’t to say we never take them off…

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford.
Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.

In our defence, we were both feeling rather under the weather when we got beaten severely by Barney, although we did put up a good fight. :)
Rob and Sarah,
I didn’t mean to question your vigour or vitality. The walking portions of the trip were testament to your determination.
