Peregrinations of a young-ish adventurer with time on his hands and the desire to visit and re-visit extraordinary places during a month-long six-continent trip around the world during the northern hemisphere's fall of 2010. The notion of "chasing the sun" comes from a "theory" that by traveling in a westward direction the body is able to transition time zone changes more easily. This we shall see.

Off to South America
I'll be heading for the airport shortly for a flight on Iberia to Madrid. Then, after a bit of a lay-over I'll board the LAN (formerly known as Lan Chile) flight for Santiago, Chile. This will be the longest flight segment of the trip at 13 hours and 50 minutes. I'm hoping for the best in terms of getting some sleep. So I'll check back with you upon my arrival there. Adios!
