n nNext year Im going to be 80 years old. My car will be 20 years old. Together well be 100. Were going to drive to Cairo.n nAnd what route are you going to take?n nI have no idea. I think Ill keep to the right.n nWhen 80-year-old Julia Albu calls in to her favourite radio show with a zany, half-baked idea, she has no idea that it will lead her to the adventure of a lifetime.n nFrom helping push a 30-year-old Toyota bakkie up a precipitous mountain pass in Malawi to being adopted by the riotous ex-pat South African community in Dar es Salaam and being fed mildly hallucinogenic herbs by her Ethiopian driver-guide, nothing deterred 80-year-old Julian nAlbu from her quest to drive through Africa from the Cape to Cairo.n nShe and her 20-year-old Toyota Conquest, Tracy - a personality in her own right - travelled through 10 African countries, from South Africa to Egypt (and beyond). Julia was accompanied by a series of companions who added texture to her travels: three of her four grown-up children, her son-in-law, and at least one person who began as a complete stranger and ended up as a friend for life.n nReminiscing about her long and interesting life along the way, and maintaining a bright and upbeat outlook regardless of the circumstances, Julia proves that youre never too old to tackle that buckn
