But you probably take enough precautions against boredom/restless legs etc., and you've done it often enough to know what to expect (although I guess no two trips are ever exactly the same, are they?).<br />I know what you mean about it seeming like yesterday when you arrived in NZ, and at the same time feeling as if you've lived there forever. I often get that kind of self-contradicting impression about certain situations and places in my own life.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-495553397518653924.post-23013064476228488302013-04-29T02:05:07.530+12:002013-04-29T02:05:07.530+12:00welkom weer thuis.welkom weer thuis.Bas.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13804347915356897054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-495553397518653924.post-5415212045574426972013-04-29T00:02:51.131+12:002013-04-29T00:02:51.131+12:00Hey, thanks so much for showing this!
As a travel ...Hey, thanks so much for showing this!<br />As a travel agent, I often had to work out the best route for a journey, not just the money side of it, but the length of time that it would take.<br />I just added it up, it is about 12,689 miles. Wow. Get some rest after your flight is over!<br />Then, read "Sailing Alone Around The World" and think of someone doing that all alone in a small boat! :-)Kay G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07228498846814735537noreply@blogger.com
