Red Bishop Sponsors are friends of the expedition who have supported us financially and morally in our aim to raise awareness about the global water crisis by completing the first unbroken  journey from the source of the Blue Nile to the Mediterranean Sea.

Please take a minute to recognise the kind people who have opened their hearts and contributed to the Colours of the Nile expedition, their selfless generosity is immeasurable:

Bayly & Rosemary Tanner
Wellington, New Zealand.

Up with Edmund Hillary and Neil Armstrong who adopted the approach:
"I am a pioneer and in the process of creation, experimenting with and experiencing life, I venture with confidence even into the unknown because it is my truth that things aren’t wrong just because they sound impossible, can’t be seen or proved by orthodox methods." You are a team of new millennium David Livingstones.

James Smerdon
Vancouver, Canada.

“It is in the compelling zest of high adventure and of victory, and in creative action, that man finds his supreme joys.” -- Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Arturo Borrego
Laredo, Texas.  USA.

Continue search our past to solve future problems! 

Libero
Dig deep mate. How much do you want it?

Kate
Vancouver, BC. Canada.

As T.S. Eliot wrote, “Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.”
Your team's journey will take you through an amazing part of this world we all live in. Just as the river must meet its challenges, so must you. The stories you will bring to the world will inspire us all.

Bryn, Katie and Lucas Wyka
Vancouver, BC. Canada.

“A traveler has a right to relate and embelish his adventures as he pleases, and it is very impolite to refuse that deference and applause they deserve.”
--Rudolph Erich Raspe
Heh, I look forward to sitting down with a pint and applauding your embelishments! Good luck on the adventure and I hope this trip gets the publicity it deserves.

Jim & Mary
Mill Bay, BC. Canada.

May the river rise to meet you, May the wind be always at your back, May the sun shine warm upon your face, the rains fall soft upon your head, And until we meet again may God hold you in the hollow of his hand.

Karen Clark
Seattle, WA. USA.

Aliveness is the real enjoyment in doing what you do. It's excitement...exhilaration that makes you feel glad to be alive. It's the joy, stimulation, and pleasure that makes life worth living. The best way I've found to generate aliveness is to get someone to do what they really want to do. What you want to do is always your best option in life, because life appears to be set up for you to get what you want, IF you dare to want it. So, when you are making choices, do what you want most - NOT which choice makes the most sense. -Anonymous

Harry & Elli, Vancouver, BC, Canada
"You never know what's enough until you know what's more than enough."
-Friedrich Nietzsche
"The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom." 
-William Blake
We wish you a successful journey and a safe return home.


Shadoe Stephens, Vancouver, BC, Canada
You will be in my thoughts daily as I wish you strength and endurance for your travels; may you remain and return healthy and safe. I look forward to tracing your route.

Brian and Judy Tanner & family, Te Puke, New Zealand & Sydney, Australia
“A person needs at intervals to separate from family and c
ompanions and go to new places.  One must go without familiars in order to be open to influences, to change”. 
Enjoy being on your arse all day in the boat – better you than us.  All the best for the journey – we look forward to tracking your progress.
