I am hard to shake or perhaps I just don't want the journey to end, but I have to share the last leg.
Dave survived his day visit to Tokyo airport and got to Vancouver safe and sound
.
I left steaming ( after a heavy downpour ) Ho Chi Minh City at 3 am on Monday and at 3.00 pm Tuesday I found myself on a bus travelling from Invercargil in the very south of the South Island of New Zealand back to where the last leg of the plane trip to conclude.
Due to a very early heavy snow we couldn't land in Queenstown so had to fly further south to come down.
I felt I was in a time, cultural, and temperature time warp. From 34 to 2 degrees, from 90 to 4 million people, from constant noise to a beautiful and silent white wonderland......ahhhh, so good to be home !
