Yikes! This one cleaned me out...smile. The tour and airfare is paid in full and now I am even more committed than before. I booked my airfare too, and as I said earlier, this is the first time I will be doing an "around-the-world" plan.
I fly from Anchorage to San Francisco via Phoenix on March 29th. I'll stay overnight in San Francisco. Then it's on to Newark where I will stay another night. I'm taking it easy this time around. From there I head east to Istanbul. I'll arrive around noon on April 1st.
I then have three days of free time before meeting up with my tour group. From there it's overland for 125 days. Coming home I'll be flying from Mongolia to San Francisco on July 31st and connecting to Anchorage.
Here's the good news:
Anchorage to San Francisco - FREE
SFO Airport Hotel - FREE
San Francisco to Newark - FREE
EWR Airport Hotel - $48
Newark to Istanbul - $377
Peking to Ulaanbaatar - $306
Ulaanbaatar to San Francisco - $527
San Francisco - Anchorage - FREE
PS: Finished two of the four visa applications...yikes...not an easy task!
From the Mediterranean Sea to the Pacific Ocean, this is my first "round-the-world" tour and the first time I am traveling alone. It's also the first time I am NOT the leader of the group. This will be a huge adventure for me, one that tests my patience (smile), stamina and my ability to adapt. I can't wait!
