          it took myjack about 4 days to get in 10 flights. lol
          he's been working outside so not much need to be stair climbing at work.

          he finally got petronas twin towers done!

          he is on his last climb for the virtual buildings now.

            Back from mountains (real ones!!) where I did lots of flights. 80 steps to reach my hotel room and everyone thought I was crazy for never taking the lift (elevator to you Americans). So....

            Topped the CN Tower in Toronto and have started (well, nearly finished actually) the Forth Rail Bridge.

                        At about 1400 hours ADBB time, Boonie stomped the last 3 flights of 2,860 steps to the top of Petronas Twin Towers, Malaysia. Here is what she sees....

                        "What a VIEW there is from the top!!" "Wish you could be here!!"

                              This is a great challenge, I'm excited! I decided to start with the Sydney Opera House. I want to do all virtual buildings, until finally climbing the ACTUAL CN Tower.
                              My decreasing dress size shall be the main measurement of my success.
