911 Around Australia
When I first read this, it just re-ignited my desire to cross Australia myself — a little differently maybe (with two-wheels instead of 911), and I really believe it’s a rite-of-passage for Australians who love to travel. I’ve spent much of the last six months travelling back-and-forth between Australia & Malaysia, and yet I’ve barely explored my own back-yard.
In the sandy silence of this limitless landscape I feel like a pioneer. For some reason my thoughts switch to Neil Armstrong and the Eagle module on the surface of the moon. Curiously, our 2009 model Porsche probably has more computing power than the flimsy contraption that first carried man to the moon 40 years earlier.
