Round the world challenge



We are working our way through the novel 'Round The World In 80 Days' and are thoroughly enjoying our trip with Phileas Fogg, Jean Passepatout, and Detective Fix.

Mr Baylis has set a challenge task for Room 1. Design your own trip around the world in 80 days.
The criteria are as follows:
- Each continent (except Antarctica) needs to be visited.
- The trip is to be no more than 80 days.
- The trip is to start and finish in Auckland.
- At least 2 modes of transport are to be used.
- The trip is to cost no more than $20,000.

Here are a couple of websites to help you:

We'll keep you posted with how we are going and what our finished itineraries are.
