Did this repeatedly in Kenya, in particular each time we drove back and forth btwn Nairobi and Eldoret.
Twice on the way south and twice on the way north returning home. The first time I crossed it was on a trip to Australia and New Zealand. The second time was earlier this year on my trip to Peru. Each time I wasn’t really aware that we were crossing the equator.
I want to cross the equator again on visits to South Africa, Chile, Argentina and on a return to New Zealand. I’d also like to visit Antarctica, but that one is a long shot now.
I’ve always wanted to do this, but haven’t been anywhere close so far. There is a chance I might get to go to southeast Asia in the next year or two and I might be able to swing a weekend across the equator then if I’m close enough.

Yesterday I received a travel catalog in the mail from an agency that works with AARP. One of the tours to Australia, New Zealand, and Fiji included RT airfare from Los Angeles and lodging for 18 days with 20 meals, priced at $4,079. There are stops in Melbourne, Cairns, Great Barrier Reef, Sydney, Queenstown, Mt. Cook, Christchurch and Nadi. If I can start saving $250 a month now, I would actualy be able to afford it by the May 2008 departure date. Something worth considering.
I was on a ship from Mogadishu, Somalia to Mombasa, Kenya and remember the inercom on the ship claiming that we were passing over the equator. I looked out the window, shrugged my shoulders, and went back to sleep. Oh well…at least I did it. :)

When I traveled to Singapore, that’s only a couple of degrees north of the equator. And my friends invited me to go with them to Borneo, but I went north to the Philippines instead. I feel like I’m missing something big. A view of the Southern Cross? I’ve spent my entirely life north of this invisible line. Perhaps the best way to do this is to cross it on a ship and do the Neptune celebration.
