So out of the middle east and into Asia we trundle...improving steadily all the time. The Pigeons have taken flight and are brandishing their strawberry feathers to anyone who may cross their path. A three pronged attack from the Ezza family - Tezza, Mezza and Brezza... Mad Dog Madigan was disappointed that he had to change nicknames to be a part of the Ezza's but his leadership and motivation is helping the two tiny Ezzas to bring their passion to the fore.
Mr Ed has now officially sworn off apples for good after meeting the Witch from Snow White on the plane to Pakistan, no matter how much we told him, he said that he was still addicted to the sweet, sweet taste of the red apple that grows in faraway lands. So yeh, he passed out and had to wait for Smshr to kiss him and bring him back to life, only problem was that she had just finished her 43rd mars bar for the morning... and like the ad says "Mom says chocolate isnt good for horses......but you can have the rest of my milk....." So he was then rushed back to the medical facility strangely run by Eddie McGuire (he really is everywhere) where he was quickly nursed back to health by his long lost Aunty Atilla....
We got to Pakistan and a balmy 54 degrees celcius greeted us when we arrived.
Smshr had worn through her 98th pair of shoes, and was hoping that she would get a letter from the Queen when she got to her 100th, sadly all she got was a letter from the bank that her account was overdrawn from buying too many shoes....
Lilian, Boofhead and the others continue to work hard, with the steps slowly increasing, i have a feeling we might be headed somewhere near the himalayas, and Everest....but we will see.
News of other teams is not good, the Turtles lost one of their members for a week, and even with her return today, are still looking down the barrel of a gigantic deficit. No sign of any Pigeon pie as yet, seems that a turtles mouth is alot larger than its feet...The 'Stiffs' are going ok, although im getting unofficial reports that they want to take out one of their own, as some of the group are getting sick of carrying the others on their frail backs...The Globetrotters are still seething that one of their members has gone to India without them, so they are walking there to pick him up so he can help the team.
Update: 138th place average 12,208 steps per person per day

The sick Turtle is now back on deck and in training for her Transylvanian trek in September; another Turtle is hiring a treadmill to save her carpet from being worn out at home. Only time will tell if Turtles mouths are bigger than their feet...
