3.My mother sat in silence,shocked by my guided tour of websites of adventurous families,who bike around the world for charity,sail the globe in search of their roots or see the world through children's eyes.We found many people on boats,bikes and foot,showing that adventure doesn't have to die when a new life is created.As one of my friends says,‘This is your one and only chance to explore the world with your children as they are now.'‘Mum,'I began awkwardly.‘We're going to travel across New Zealand.Two bikes,two trailers(拖车),two toddlers(学步的孩子) and 2,000 miles.'
‘Two thousand nappies(纸尿裤)more like.'
My mother wasn't the only one to raise objections.While friends and family were impressed by our bravery,they were horrified at what it would involve.‘No nursery,no babysitters,no bath time,no peace,no escape…'And that was before we mentioned the real difficulty:pulling 50kg of trailer,toddler and baggage.And of course the nappies.
‘Is there anything I can say to put you off?'my mother asked.
‘No,Mum,'I replied firmly.
‘Well,we'll see about that.'
The challenge of dealing with my mother's phone call about potential disasters is as great as anything we may have to face on the road.Meanwhile,we rush to toilet-train both children to avoid the nappy carrying.Among the voices of doubt and disapproval,I still sometimes wonder if we are mad,but know we aren't mad alone.We have now been in communication with many of the families I showed my mother on the web.And we can feel our own voice getting stronger and more confident with their encouragement,advice and support.
Now we know there are so many families out there adventuring,we're already developing ideas for a world tour to meet some of these families and talk with them about their experiences and spread the word about the possibilities for independent family adventure.As a friend of ours said,‘The only limit is the parents'imagination.'We intend to let ours run wild.
