April – May 2003 

Intro

So this trip is not what it was originally supposed to be.  I bought a “Circle Pacific” fare, which allows you a certain maximum number of miles to cover during a certain time period, for a fixed price.  So, I was supposed to go to all the countries of the Pacific Rim that were available using this fare:  Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, China, South Korea and Japan.  Well, with travel, things rarely go

Somehow I got duped into climbing the Sydney Harbour Bridge with “Bridgeclimb”. Mind you, I’m deathly afraid of heights. Yes, I was attached to the bridge by a safety cable — in case I slipped and fell to my certain death, I would in fact be bungeed back to life. But… that would not be fun. The views from up there though — wow, priceless!
