About this Flexdashboard
While looking at one of my flexdashboard maps, I started thinking about ways that I could re-make the graph. And since I have been listening to one of my favorite books Le tour du monde en quatre-vingts jours (Around the World in Eighty Days) by Jules Verne, I used Mr. Fogg’s original itinerary as insipiration for the graphs in this flexdashboard.
| Place | Days of Travel |
|---|---|
| London, United Kingdom to Suez, Egypt | 7 days |
| Suez, Egypt to Bombay, India | 13 days |
| Bombay, India to Calcutta, India | 3 days |
| Calcutta, India to Victoria, Hong Kong | 13 days |
| Hong Kong to Yokohama, Japan | 6 days |
| Yokohama, Japan to San Francisco, United States | 22 days |
| San Francisco, United States to New York City, United States | 7 days |
| New York, United States to London, United Kingdom | 9 days |
| Total | 80 days |
I found Mr. Fogg’s original itinerary on wikipedia along with a map that I decided to to remake using R libraries.
