both 81, recently returned home after the 2-and-a-half-month trip that started in Antarctica and took them to a World Wonder, the North Pole, and all the way Down Under.

It would take nearly two more years for Hazelip, a doctor, and Hamby, a photographer, to start their journey as COVID-related travel restrictions affected their trips to most of their planned destinations. The friends traveled with their own small entourage composed of a physician and photographer who helped document all their destinations through their blogs and various social media accounts.

“After leaving the mystical Easter Island, we planned to go to Peru and take the train to Machu Picchu,” the friends wrote in a blog post from February 5. “Because of political violence in Peru and especially in the Machu Picchu area, we had to cancel this portion of our trip.”The duo took in the sights of the Northern Lights in Finland.

They went on to see India’s Taj Mahal before traveling to visit the breathtaking views of Mount Everest and Mt. Fuji.
