Pre-Comp Respite Care for the crew

Never let it be said I can be selfish and obsessed with flying.

We've driven South West from the contest site for a couple of days near Sarasota. A day at Myakka National Park for biking, nature trails and canopy walks...

It's a Trek bike Jim, but not as we know it.


Up in the Floridian canopy
Bradenton Beach

...and then a day at the Honeymoon Island National Park and Canadesi Island with gorgeous beaches.....

...and time for an oil change on the trusty steed. Andrew's van is a V8 5.4 litre Ford that needs an oil change every 3000 miles. I love the Jiffylube drive through oil change centres - no appointment, just drive in off the street for fresh oil and a new oil filter in just 15 minutes. We need these in the UK. The 5.4 litres explains why we're only getting 12 miles per gallon: good job it's only 36p/litre for fuel
