Some may say the trip of a life time! To retire from work for 2 years and travel the globe. Sounds very tough - NOT! Let us take you through our journey beginning with the Trans Mongoligan Railway from St. Petersburg to Bejing, China, South East Asia (Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia), Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and South America, including Antarctica and the Galapagos! When will it end you may ask? Well that's when the money runs out, so lets wait and see.

Cordoba - Argentina

Cordoba is a historic university city. Like all other cities attractions it included a Cathedral, some museums and a tourist bus. We did none of these, and therefore didn´t get much of a feel for the place. We only stopped for a couple of nights and were happy to move on. We caught up with Richard who had a very different feel for the city, as he had met some locals who showed him around. Rich (we blame him) suggested we go to the Opera, as he had been told that the best opera was ¨Aida¨. Not only did it go on for hours, it had 3 intervals (which is when we decided to leave), it was hot and it was putting me to sleep. Don´t you hate that jerking head feeling when you snap back into consciousness, and look around you to see whether others have noticed you´ve been sleeping! There was also a big story line, but all in Spanish. At least the guy next to us told us what it was all about, in English.
