updated itinerary

so, Jason has left on his trip...he left on Saturday for Korea through Vancouver. It's weird to have him gone and me here trying to tie up some loose ends. I meet up with him in a month in Singapore so it won't be too bad (by the way, apparently Singapore Airlines are awesome...he said it was how he pictured first class...I am almost excited to spend 18 hours on the plane! *groan* the only thing saving me is my plan to reread (or more exactly, rerereread Diana Gabaldon's Outlander. I am almost giddy thinking about picking it up again). If you're thinking of taking a big trip, here is the finalized itinerary starting with when I leave Ottawa:

19 September: Ottawa-Vancouver
22 September: Vancouver-Singapore (to meet Jason)
8 Oct: Singapore-Manila, Philippines
18 Oct: Manila-Sydney, Australia (with a quick stopover in Bangkok)
13 Nov: Sydney-Auckland, New Zealand
26 Nov: Auckland-Nadi, Fiji
6 Dec: Nadi-Mumbai, India (with stops in Auckland and Bangkok. This will be a really yucky long flight in case you're wondering)
14 Dec: Dubai, UAE-Cairo, Egypt (if you're quick you've noticed that we don't have an organized flight from Mumbai to Dubai...not quite sure yet how that will work out)
28 Dec: Cairo-Frankfurt, Germany
29 Dec: Frankfurt-Toronto-Ottawa

So, if you're looking to get away for a few weeks, don't be shy! :)

Hi Michelle! This is Marsha - Jason's coworker. Jason sent me your blog before he left so I can be travelling in my cubicle.
Can you tell Jason my brother's Singapore cell number? 65-8149-6139 He lost his old cell phone.

Wow Mish, that looks like an amazing trip! You are so lucky to be able to do it. I can't wait to hear your stories and see your pics. How did you & Jason get that much time off work?

HOLY!!!

I see you cut out South America. I think I would have gone nuts trying to work out the logistics of all of that, though I had a cousin who took 1 full year off to travel the world.... Are you doing hostels (or sleeping under bridges or on rooftops or in ditches...) or are you staying at Hiltons?
