What did we do!?? We're retired and took an epic vacation! We're collecting a meager retirement and decided to travel while our legs still work!
This page holds the basic structure of what we're doing. Check the Places Links to the left for each country we visit and some photos. Way more photos posted on our Facebook pages.

Our Activity Calendar(s):

Changed plans:
We mostly went to general plan, though we added Vietnam, and didn't make Hong Kong. We considered Fiji, Nalaysia and other South Pacific Islands.
We had planned to visit Utah after Hawaii, but circumstances had us re-direct to Juneau before heading home to Fairbanks.
Why didn't we have a firm plan more than 3-4 weeks out? Well, mostly it's too much to plan. We've made lists of features we might like in each country, but information on transportation can be vague. Situations in other countries can change. What's allowed into which country may be an issue. Mostly, it's not like traveling the USA, or the Schengen/European Union, where you can go anywhere at practically any time. We're traveling in all separate countries, each, we assume, will ask where are you staying, and when are you planning to leave?! ...so we'll be planning that far ahead.
Ex: We know exactly what we hope to do in Japan, and have flight in and Ferry out information, and so now we plan for South Korea and book a flight to Taiwan before we go to South Korea, etc.
We could change plans in any country (stay longer, etc), but never did.
