It's a Small World After All

The world just got that much smaller. How small? Small enough that the traditionally marathon-esque journey from London to Sydney can now be undertaken by bus. Granted, it's a 12 week bus ride, but that's still a heck of a lot faster than the time needed by the first fleet to make the same journey by boat (eight months). So if you're in the market for a novel way to get to Australia (or to London), check out OZ-Bus.

An itinerary is provided here for the Australia-London leg, although the website does note: "Due to the unpredictability of political and environmental conditions, the route can be subject to change."
