Only $4556.
The sanding and painting continues in the Room Formerly Known as Pool Room. Life continues in the House Formerly Known as Quiet House. Now Plotnik understands why J-Whacky always said the pool table should go: J-Whacky is a painter.
The ceiling now is smoother than it was. This matters to the following people: J-Whacky, The Great Ducknik and the folks at the paint store.
It's noisy around here. So yesterday, Plotnik downloaded information on the following RTW (Round the World) trip. ( -> signifies an airplane flight):
Los Angeles -> Cook Islands -> Fiji -> Auckland -> Sydney - overland to Melbourne -> Perth-> Singapore - overland to Bangkok -> Delhi - overland to Mumbai -> Nairobi -> Johannesburg - overland to Cape Town -> Buenos Aires - overland to Lima (this is a long bus ride) -> San Jose Costa Rica, overland to Mexico City (another long bus ride) -> Los Angeles.
Cost of all these air fares: $4556 on a RTW Ticket. This is what you think about when plaster is in the air.

The Great Ducknik needs to walk in, when you are up to your elbows in paint and plaster dust, and say "You know, now that I've thought about it a bit, that pool table was actually really nice have in here."
That trip in no way sounds attractive to me. But it's got TGP written all over it.
Ummm, can I join you on this epic adventure? When we went to NZ/Australia, I definitely looked into adding Fiji as a layover. It more than quadrupled the cost of the ticket.
ah, escape!
Ok Plot... o--o is a car trip.
Seattle o--o to Phoenix (spring training) o--o to Los Angeles (Passover), o--o to San Antonio (Riverwalk),
o--o to Austin (City Limits Music), o--o to Arkansas (Clinton Library), o--o to Kentucky (Louisville slugger factory tour and Bourbon tasting!), o-o to State Parks in Utah ( Canyonlands, Arches, Bryce and Zion), o--o to LA because we can and up the coast with a possible layover at PWorld Hdqtrs.
All in about 6-8 weeks!
That's the tentative plan for the first Retirement Road Trip!
Hugs!
How about this trip instead (good music and it's cheaper too)?:
