Travel Adventures

Another exciting day.. Did some laundry and then headed over to a huge RV show. We found our next RV Tradition 385RSS by Double Day. If we plan to do more trips like this one we have decided we need something just a little bit bigger. The salesman almost had Joe sold on a new truck and 5th wheel. I would have loved to have a bigger rig for this trip but didn39t want the cost that came along

In late April I decided that my favorite pair of shoes were getting really broken down and needed to be replaced. There are several Adidas stores in Zhuhai so I didnt think Id have a problem.Needless to say I had a problem.I didnt have any trouble getting to the Adidas store or finding shoes that I liked. Unfortunately the largest size the store carries is a ten. I need an eleven.I we

We all spent a morning with the subject of herbs used for medicinal purposes. Diana is a medical herbalist so is the perfect teacher. AP loved this part and has had an interest in the old ways of medicine for a long time.Many herbal remedies have been discovered over hundreds of generations of interaction between people and wild plants though much of this knowledge is now lost in the mainstream o

21 May Trip from Edinburgh to London was 4 12 hours....for us it seemed to go quickly maybe because there was only four stops York Darlington Newcastle Haymarket kings cross.There wasn39t a lot of scenery other than sheep greenery or these yellow flowers which I39m still trying to figure out..We arrived at Haymarket station and guess what I got confused and started walking the other

Upon waking up we made the decision to stay in St. John39s for one more night to really relax and take in some more of the city. We did some exercise today. We had almost forgotten what that felt like so got the jelly bellies a jiggling on a 2 hour hike and climb along a deathtrail that rounds Signal Hill atop extremely steep cliffs with end of your life drop offs. The hike was tough but su

Throughout the last 8 and a bit months we have done day by day exactly what we wanted to do. If we fancied visiting a temple we could if we fancied a beer at 12pm we could and if we wanted to do nothing more than spend all day in bed we could although we didn39t. It has been incredible to do that but for us we decided we needed to do something productive and a little more structures for a

Hey peopleIt39s been insanely hot here...35C or 95F Too hot to do much of anything other than lounge about smartly actually. Weather folks say rain this week.....but I don39t believe it for a minute. Not much happening here sadly other than a birthday party for Mikos on Monday pictures to follow. Other than that I try and steer clear of the sun because 1130 am to 4 pm it39s intense

At the weekends we are free to roam Devon and Cornwall. This particular Saturday we decided to visit Boscastle. It is a small town much like most of them round these here parts. We went to the witch museum which we both found interesting and also disturbing as there were many witch hunts and trials during the 15th to 17th centuries these were known as the 39burning times39. Pretty nasty stu

Cusco is one of the top cultural cities of Peru filled with quirky shops huge markets selling everything from wellies which we bought right down to deconstructed cows heads and plenty of opportunities to get your photo taken with a lamb or alpaca. This wasn39t our main reason for coming though the main reason was to eventually work our way to Macchu Picchu via the Salkantay trek.Coming from
