Night at the Station

The weather conditions have been pretty torrid over the last week and faced with a night of wild camping on Friday, Mark received some welcome hospitality and shelter from the local fire station.

He was joined by Mike and Alanna, who he met for the first time in the United States. The pair interviewed Mark as part of their documentary called Going the Distance, which featured on this blog two months ago. The couple are on their own epic journey from Alaska to Argentina in the name of love!

I spent a very random night in a fire station. Mike and Alanna are a couple who are doing the same route but on an Ural (motorbike and sidecar) who I first met in Utah. Our paths have crossed a few times now and they also kipped down in a bunkroom with the firemen!
