Thanks to the continuing information and suggestions. I just read the latest Porsche magazine and was inspired by the massive round-trip taken by two avid Boxster owners! There's certainly a few additions to my plan.
Unfortunately my departure date was held back after I was viciously swiped from my Kawasaki Ninja by, yes a driver who "didn't see me". I bought a fluorescent yellow bike with matching jacket and drove dry weather days only with my full beam lights on.
Arm badly smashed and only just felt comfortable to drive the Boxster yesterday around the block.

The information on healers is also very useful - I am open to people anyone has used that is worth their salt and truly practices their art with humility and grace.

I did take delivery of my new DSLR and lenses so hope to provide some great shots along the way.
