That was mean. I apologize. I love penguins but I also love seals. Maybe if the penguins had a better defense than ‘cuteness’ then I could love them both equally.

Sad world.

A penguin dies every 6 seconds…

Great article by the way.

Ever thought of walking Lands end to John o Groats? Would take longer than your average holiday but the experience would fit snugly into examples you gave.

Coincidentally I was speaking to a guy in Taupo yesterday who when he gets back from NZ is in May/June going to spend 9 weeks walking with side trips John o Groats to Landsend

Guess you can afford 9 weeks when you have just retired

Yeah, the idea was things that can be dive without quitting your job. I guess you could cycle it in a couple of weeks?
