 | Full Circle is amazing!
rating: 5
Full circle is an incredible 10,000 plus mile journey around the entire pacific rim. My favorite parts are the geo-reserve in kamchatka, the trip up the yangzte (pre dam), the jet boat in new zealand, and the amazon river boat trip. It's great that Palin documents China like this just before the technology explosion.

This was fantastic

OK, I know it's not out yet, but I recorded this on DVD when it ran on Bravo several years ago and I remembered watching it on PBS way before then. This was when I first heard of Michael Palin's travels. This is probably my favorite of all of them. Even so, I still plan to buy this when it comes out.
In this travel, Palin begins on Little Diomede Island in the Bering Strait and travels, counterclockwise, around the Pacific Ocean visiting Russia, South Korea, Japan, China, the Philippines, Australia, New Zealand, Chile, Bolivia, Colombia, Mexico, the US, and Canada, but due to weather is unable to return to his starting point about one year later.
