Are there many meaningful challenges left for intrepid explorers? The world"s greatest peaks have all been climbed. The earth has been circumnavigated many times by plane, foot, bicycle and balloon, among other means of conveyance. Many of the major rivers, lakes and seas have been swum or canoed. Satellite navigation technology allows mankind to see almost every river, copse and hill.
But once upon a time warriors like Alexander the Great and Genghis Khan led their forces thousands of miles overland across unknown topography, while fighting off rival armies. Great navigators - Vasco da Gama, Christopher Columbus, Captain Cook - "discovered" new continents.
This Friday however some visitors to the Chezger September Fest will begin their very own challenge. Yep, they are attending the aquarium. Leave all preconceptions at home people, gird your loins and prepare yourselves for the greatest adventure of your lives.
