Wandered up and down the long Singapore Changi concourses watching the sun rise, and waiting for our last flight – a small Silk Air Airbus to Darwin – arriving back in the great south land just after lunch.
It’s been a great trip.
We visited 15 different countries in 60 days, and got over 50 stamps in our passport, exchanged 12 different currencies, slept in 22 different beds, did 24 tours and one cruise. We travelled in planes, trains, trams, buses, ferries, yachts, cars, taxis, funiculars and an underground trolley. We walked over 927,000 steps, a total of 602 km (about the same distance as Melbourne to Canberra), at a rate of just over 10.5 km per day. Don’t ask me how many security checks we’ve had to endure, I don’t want to know.
With the aid of a little bit of plastic to fund it, a passport to open the gates, and the internet to keep us connected, we’ve completed an extraordinary journey when you really think about it. And all of it in complete safety. How amazing is that.
