400.000 km
09.02.2014,
119 047 km since the beginning of the journey,
Ruta 52, Argentina,
(GPS S23 41.626 W065 42.854).
Just a nice round number, with many zeroes, and almost an anniversary.
I will stop for a moment, take a picture of the speedometer, and then walk across the road to get for the archive some images of the bus as well.
Thinking back - then the previous round numbers in the speedometer were in Kenya in 2011, just a few kilometers after crossing the equator.
Crossing the equator for the first time. It was May 17, 2011. 999 days ago.
Coincidence ? Or by chance? Certainly coincidence as well - as the average travel speed is 100 km per day. On some days there is more driving and on others days less, and some days are just car -free days. Or car-free weeks.
Because it is not important to count kilometers, but most important are all these interesting and beautiful places that could be visited and enjoyed while covering these kilometers.
