Our route back from China

The plan is to get from London to Beijing in 28 days, but what next? Well we've had to rule driving back from China to the UK on the basis that we do have day jobs when we are not on a rally, so we're flying back.

Today we purchased our tickets back from China to the UK which we see as further progress on what seems like an endless list of things to finalise before the 21st June. The only other time we've had to use an aeroplane on a rally is when we returned from the Mongol Rally 2007. We did consider just pitching up at an airport in China and talking our way onto a flight, but our experience of doing that in Mongolia tells us that that might not be the best plan!
