Ever since my dad first read us Swallows and Amazons my hero has been Nancy Blackett. Her real name is Ruth and she is fearless, an enterprising leader and a good sailor. I am neither fearless or a good sailor - my sailing instructor on Lake Windemere told me that I had a "wiggly wake". And I am beginning to realise that I am not as adventurous as I think I am. Going off to Africa with 2 kids sounded easy enough, until I started writing a big list of everything we need to do before we go!
However, I was recently reminded by a wise woman that I should not be concentrating on all the worries and fears about travelling to and living in Africa, but we should remember that this is an amazing opportunity for an awesome adventure. An adventure which Nancy would have faced with no fear!
