1st: Of course anywhere on the continent of Africa...this pic from Offroad Academy reminded me just how much I want to go




Also, love to wheel in the Pacific NW. The huge, evergreens and mountains, leading to desert and ocean is just awesome! I've only gotten to drive a Camry on the beach in Seaside, Oregon on a drive from Portland to SeaTac. Here's the pic that made me realize that!

Yea, where is that guy's pants? Maybe he forgot them in the tent...

And it's not like I know anything, but I've never seen two tents on one roof before. And Pantsless looks friendly enough (G)

Wow, that Namibia picture is truly a winner. Damned Africa, always calling my name.....

Thanks a lot, I didn't even see the pantless guy until you mentioned it (didn't scroll to the right), then I had to go back and see what you were talking about. Could've gone all day w/out seeing that.Lynden

to most americans - swim trunks are a larger affair. however in ROW - depsite their bad statestide rep - speedos are the standard.

having had to suffer in speedos my self whilst living in a british colony - i can personally speak of their use.

Yeah I figured it was a speedo under there too, but I didn't even need to see his spindly legs holding up the pot-belly.

I've always said I would like to visit (certain) parts of Africa ... I used to say I would rather see Africa first than Europe. Just not the way it's worked out, (sigh) oh well.

As for "pantless" - I was thinking along the same lines as Steve ... probably in a speedo. ... hehehe, makes me remenise about a time when I was traveling with two of my best (girl) friends, and there were these guys who didn't speak english too well, and wanted to learn more (American slang). The FIRST words we taught them were "wieni-bikini" ... "What is this weini-bikini?? ... Oh, yes, I wear WEINI BIKINI!! ...." "Ssshhh! Not so loud!"
