20. Sep 29 The cap goes Arizona bound

The cap has moved on again. From Dubai he moved on to Brazil and from there has travelled to the Grand Canyon

What a cracking few days I have had with Shona and Antonia and the rest of the girls from Brazil. All this Samba dancing has left me shattered. I feel like I have been in the field on the boundary with the taxman bowling 6 overs. I really must find some quietness and serenity.

I left the country and met a helicopter pilot and had a chat over a few beers over in America. After a brief discussion and him realising he was talking to the badger he offered me a free trip to the Grand Canyon. for a bit of relaxation.

Meet Brent from Maverick Airlines. He took me on a tour of the Hoover Dam and then we dropped into the Western Rim in the Grand Canyon. It was so quiet and sheer bliss. A complete opposite to listening to the sledging and the pavilion banter. To top it off Brent cracked open a couple of bottles of champers.

This reminded me of a Saturday session on the Magners !

Burnsys to Heathrow to Buenas Aires to Cayman Isles to Philadelphia to Niagara Falls to Thrumpton to the ICC Dubai to Brazil to the Grand Canyon
