Highest point in Oman at 3018m - WHAT A VIEW. Not quite 500 miles, but 24.5 km covered in 7 hours makes one tired Tom. Now to go lie down…
Well done to those of you that guessed Oman from yesterday’s post, excellent detective work :)

Are you even a tourist in Sri Lanka if you don’t take the train ride across the mountains to Ella? Simply breathtaking.
It took 7 hours and 20 minutes to travel from Nanu Oya to Colombo at an average speed of 28 kmph. How long is the railway?
Try it without a calculator for a challenge :)
