living far away

'I've looked for love in stranger places.' - Melee, Built to Last
The distance from Amsterdam Schiphol to Harare Kutsaga is approximately 5109 miles or 8222 kilometers. Flying time is approximately 17 hours including stopovers, either in Nairobi or Johannesburg or both.

The approximate number of days since I last saw my parents is 2008.  There were approx. 2191 days between that visit and the one before.

London - Harare cheapest fare is around 627 euros.

There are 120 days until my dad turns 70. So I'll be up 63 days if I can get back in time...

Enjoy Harare, where are your parents? (give Harare my love!)

The shops are empty there, my kids were there in Dec. They said it was pitiful.

Oh Ash, now you've got me crying. 2008 days?? I don't think I could do it. I last saw my dad (who turns 86 this month), brother and nephews in Feb and I already feel i need another trip home. And I didn't realise they were still in Harare - you must be worried sick. Enjoy yor time with them and I hope you don't find the changes in Zim too distressing. Hugs.

Tell me what you want me to know.
