Good vacation.

On the same day of the bet, Phileas Fogg and his new butler, Passepartout
undertook a journey to Paris. As luggage he carried a change, 20,000 pounds, (half of his fortune, the other half had been staked) and a travel guide.
And from Paris, smoothly, to Turin
From Turin, they crossed all of Italy to Brindisi
From Brindisi, crossing the Mediterranean by boat, to Suez
From Suez, across the Red Sea and the Arabian Sea to Bombay
They crossed India to Allahabad
From Allahabad to Benares
And from Benares to Calcutta
They left India to get to Hong Kong
And through China to Shanghai
From Shanghai to Yokohama in Japan
And from Japan to America
And they came to San Francisco
From San Francisco to Omaha in Nebraska
And from Omaha to Chicago
And from Chicago to New York
And across the Atlantic to Cobh (former Queenstown) in Ireland
And from Cobh to Dublin
And from Dublin to Liverpool
And finally, from Liverpool to London
And with British punctuality, after 80 days, Mr. Fogg followed by a delirious crowd made his entrance into the Reform Club.
