Southward bound

After spending a nice relaxing Christmas in Fort William we headed to Kinlochleven to spend the day at the Ice Factor adventure centre. We started with some indoor rock climbing followed by an outside adventure course which involved traversing an obstacle course suspended 10 metres off the ground. The best part of this was the giant swing that you get to go on at the end.  After a small stop for some lunch (best not to go on boxing day as the kitchen staff are off) Glenn participated in some ice climbing on the worlds biggest indoor ice cube.

After leaving London late we found a place to park in Basingstoke so we could spend our first night in our new home. It was one of the best sleeps we had had so far due to no late night interruptions. Unfortunately, we had left the fridge on overnight, being accustomed to having one run 24/7 which resulted in us waking up at 6am with sub zero temperatures and a flat battery. Thankfully, after a short 45min wait, we were assisted by a couple of locals heading off to work allowing us to continue our journey.
