      Great question. I’m trying to remember which route my ships took the two times I went to Australia. It’s difficult to recall much of anything from those times, what with the blood rushing to our heads from being upside-down 24/7 for the first times in our lives. We were not accustomed to it like the Aussies are. We landed in Perth, so if we had taken a northerly route, Perth/Fremantle is my southernmost point. If we sailed south of the country, that would be the southernmost ive ever been.
      I’ve been all over mainland Japan, somewhere in Russia, Amsterdam, Wisconsin, New York, Seattle, London, Paris, Islamabad, Yerevan, etc., so I’m not sure how far north is my pinnacle.

    Naval northern cruise we touched the Arctic Circle just to enable the ship's company to qualify for certificates to be signed by King Neptune to certify we had crossed into and sailed the waters within the Circle.

    Furthest south was Trinidad.
