Day 117, 2011/08/26 Haifa to Limassol in Cyprus

Day 117, 2011/08/26

After receiving tickets the day before, Clemens and myself decide to pay another visit to the local agents. The agents advise us that, the boat we are due to been on will actually be arriving early and impact will be here that morning and, will be leaving this evening. WOW!! That is the best news I have heard all week! So it is a big rush now. We head back to the hotel to checkout and collect our bikes and things. We are back by midday and then the wake game begins. While waiting another two bikes arrive. The riders are two Italian women, the one on a KTM 990. Impressive!!! Eventually, we are guided through passport control and customs and onto our Grimaldi cargo ship. After handing over our passports, we are shown to our cabins, which will be home for the next couple of days. They are really luxurious compared to anything i have seen in months, nothing like the ones on the Wadi Halfa ship. Eventually at about 6 pm we set sail. What a relief! Finally the last major stress has been lifted and it feels like my final goal, that of arriving in Europe is finally becoming a reality.
