I have to say that the idea of going from top to toe of the Americas, or vice versa, has an appeal but there is the issue of the Atlantic that needs to be crossed so I am not making any plans to do it just yet.
My plan is essentially a trip around Africa doing as much scuba diving on the way as possible whilst still making some progress. I was given the Michelin maps of Africa - 3 maps - and have started poring over them to figure out reasonable routes that will allow me to dive and visit places that interest me en route. Heck, I might even meet up with my wife and kids on the way.
In the meantime shorter, 2 week, trips to Europe will be the order of the day going to see things like the Northern lights in Norway, concerts at Carcassonne in the south of France, etc.
Enjoy the planning, at the moment it is as close as we are going to get until the vaccines kick in.
