  • Legs of this Journey:

    Bristol To Shanghai

    Suchern flew to Okinawa ahead of me, then on to the small island of Ishigaki, where she spent a few days under leaden skies and in stiff sea breezes; it should have been tropical, but felt cold. To top it off, she'd accidentally left her phone at Naha airport, so it was a few days before I found out she had made it okay 😯 I set off with more luggage than is sensible, and a bike bag that is so big the airline may refuse to take it, on Tuesday 10th March 2026, fortunate that I booked with China Eastern in that Donald Trump's war with Iran wouldn't affect my flight to Shanghai over Russia...
