Serious Fun Road Trip Video

Hannah — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 15:05:47 +0000

I’ve been reminiscing a little recently, looking through old photos, and decided I wanted to make a little reminder of our 2004-05 serious fun road trip adventure. I had so many photos sitting on our hard drive I just decided to stitch them all together in chronological order to create a little video of our 9 month trip in 6.30 minutes.

After 2 years of living, loving, climbing, surfing, boarding and spending summer 2003 slack lining in the local park in London Patrick and I hatched a plan to bunk off work for 9 months in search of a stress free lifestyle. The plan: 1) spend the snow season in Fernie, Canada, relishing the powder days 2) stock up for a trip surfing down the Baja Peninsular 3) surviving Baja, tackle the best climbing America had to offer. It didn’t all go to plan but it was great fun.

A return trip to Yosemite in 2007 with Rick Abbott and Will Hobbs. Not as successful as the first trip back in 2001, but a lot of fun none the less.

Hannah — Wed, 20 May 2009 20:30:13 +0000

We had been together for nearly two years living, loving, climbing, surfing and boarding. Summer 2003 was spent slack lining in the loacl park, this gave us a taste for the stress free lifestyle, a plan was hatched, to bunk off work for 9 months (or as long as lasted). The plan, 1. spend the snow season in Fernie relishing the powder days 2. stock up for a trip down the Baja Peninsular surfing, 3. surviving Baja we aimed to tackle the best climbing America had to offer.

There were a few hicups along the way…mainly P breaking his ankle but here are a few photos of the fun we had.
