Real-time
Thankyou! Thankyou! Many, many thanks to each and everyone of you, I couldn't have done it without you lovely people! Earlier today my blog ticked over a momentous milestone; 500,000 page views, that's right, half a million clicks!
I posted my first blog five years ago in August, 2012 but posted just four blogs that year as we prepared for life 'Out There' on the road. 2013 was really the year it all began and from there it took just over three and half years (43 months) to reach the 250,000 mark on July 30th last year. This means that the blog has had an astonishing quarter of a million views in just 13 months. Absolutely amazing! I am so grateful to you all for following us along on our travels and encouraging me with your comments, both on the blog, Facebook, travel forums and when I happen to meet you in person. I wonder where the next 500,000 clicks will find us.
And because I can't do a post without at least one photo here's one from our recent travel through the Lewis Pass which is part of the Alternative Route, the one and only road between Picton and Christchurch at the moment and until the earthquake damaged coastal highway is repaired.
A beautiful mountain tarn at the start of the St James Walkway at the top of the Lewis Pass.
Ok, Dad, you can stop clicking now!
