Hot News - July 2005 (July 12, 2005)
- Website statistics: In June we were able to welcome on our website 20'764 visitors
- from 103 different countries who did 410'405 hits
- (May = 19'154 visitors - 108 countries - 359'316 hits)

- Today, the French shipping line CMA-CGM made us a good offer to ship our car in a container
- from Cayenne/French Guiana to Singapore. Therefore, our LandCruiser will leave to Southeast Asia
- on July 24th and we hope to see it again around September 23rd. Unfortunately we cannot join as
- passengers on those vessels - at least not to conditions which are affordable for us. Therefore, we
- have not decided yet where we shall spend our time in the meantime, but it looks very much that
- Sumatra in Indonesia could be the choice.
- The chapter North- and South America seems definitively to come to an end. Totally, we spent nearly
- 10 years in the Americas (North and South combined) and drove more than 156'000 miles through
- 40 different countries. Although we visited already Southeast Asia in 1994/95, back then we were
- not able to visit all regions because of unrest, respectively uncertainty.

- On July 7th, 2005, we were able to celebrate after a journey through 150 countries the car's
- 600'000th Kilometer - very prosaic before the post office in Cayenne/French Guiana.
- Are you interested into the LandCruiser History, prepared by Toyota Motor Sales USA?
- (after some loading-time please klick "IN LEGEND" and afterwards "HAIR TO MAGELLAN"
- - and you will see that we already belong to it too!)
