By the numbers

I compiled a few statistics about our trip. Wow, we were busy!
  • Number of days: 15
  • Different time zones: 5
  • Number of time zone changes: 9
  • Different currencies: 3
  • Number of flights: 11
  • Different airports: 9
  • Total flight miles: 25,992
  • Total driven miles: 769
Ma and I have been to five continents in ten months. Where will we go next? We discussed a trip much closer to home. We've been meaning to see some American wonders such as Yosemite and the Badlands. I wouldn't mind seeing the Grand Canyon again either. We also pondered a trans-Canadian adventure. Nova Scotia, Montreal, Vancouver, perhaps? Well, knowing us, we'll change our minds entirely by next year. At the end of last year's trip, I was considering Thailand and Ireland. And we ended up in Australia. So when we talk about Nova Scotia, don't be surprised if we decide on Portugal!
