Adventure is out there!


Ten thousand feet up in the air, I took out my e-reader and opened a book.

To all those who lead
monotonous lives.
In the hope that they may experience 
at second hand
the delights and dangers of 
adventure.

[the dedication of Agatha Christie's The Secret Adversary]

I laughed and shut the e- reader down, because this time 
I wouldn't be having a second-hand adventure.
