30+ Hour Transit

So 30+ hours of travel took its toll early this week. I ended up losing count on the actual hours but it worked out to be:

Adelaide - Singapore = 6 hours
Singapore Airport = 6 hours
Singapore - Helsinki = 13 hours
Helsinki Airport = 1 hour
Helsinki - Paris = 3 hours
Paris train-station = 3 hours
Paris - Brussels - Rotterdam - Breda = 5 hours

Anyway we decided to call it quits in Brussels after a long haul which turned out to be a great call. We spent two nights in what is a really nice city...
