The city was Portuguese forhellip..ever donrsquot make me look up dates here Irsquom on vacation and it sure shows. Many elderly residents still speak the language but more telling is the archi

I made it I made it to the letterbox It took me a long time and I had to detour to the lemon tree but I did it I'll just spend a couple of days here resting and checking out the local sights and then I'll set off again to destinations unknown at this stage.

Nathan Street BridgePerhaps I'm poetic but I hope I will always be impressed by the view from the bridge as I cycle home. I snapped these photos after cycling for 3 hours around downtown. I was tired sore slightly sunburnt and thirsty but the unique colors and utter stillness or the Ross River enticed me to snap a photo. The view of the stars at night is also impressive when I cycle home from

Today we were heading towards Seattle so we had brekkie at our hotel and headed around the Olympic Mountains. The weather a bit drizzle but it was good to see some rain. As we were driving along a Deer ran across in front of the car was really cool to see. It was so fast we couldnrsquot even get a photo of it. Some of the drive took us along the coast were there was a lot of camping spots were t

Today was a long marvelous busy day.It started with breakfast in the lodge. It was better than just a continental breakfast and the lodge actually had moose antlers over a stone fireplace. Then we decided that since it wasn't raining and there weren't too many clouds we'd drive back up the park road and try to get a glimpse of Denali. We got lucky Only 30 of visitors get to see it becau

An even earlier wake up time although again we slept quite well and awoke over an hour before we needed to a decent breakfast and we were on our way to the Los Angeles community to finish the houses. This time the women went to places by themselves and just us guys and one more adventurous young lady worked on houses in the community. Soon aft

Getting ready to leave. Bags are packed and we are off to Ottawa airport early in the morning. Looking forward to another adventure and seeing new sites. Attending the Robert's wedding in Whistler will be a great start. Off we go.

Ralph and I are off again this time to Denmark and Norway for three weeks. Neither of us have been there so it should be a whole new adventure for us. And of course I'm combining my family research with our vacation. Last fall I finally discovered the actual farms where my Norwegian great great grandparents were born. So now we have a reason to visit the Lillehammer area in the central

Hello y'all Hope everything is good with all of you and the weather is wonderful and not raining as it was here. Both Ed and I are loving New Zealand but we should probably work chronologically and take you back to our last evening and full day in Sydney which now seems like a lifetime ago. So we did go to the posh Indian I mentioned in the former blog and it did not dissapoint first of all

Hi EveryoneWell we made it to Prudhoe bay it was a 238km ride north from our campground at Galbraith and wrist slittingly boring on that stretch of road. DeadhorsePrudhoe looks like it belongs on the moon by the way and the wind blows dust devils through the area something fierce if you're on a bike. Anyway after a 15 lunch at the Prudhoe Bay hotel we headed south and camped at Coldfoot for t

Of course shortly after I promised to post a photo of a Wallaby they disappeared from my life. It was only after trekking around all of Saturday that I happened to run into them again and get a chance to snap a picture.

S efter 14 dage uden moderne bekvemmeligheder som aircondition internet og cable tv var det dejligt at kunne tjekke mailen se nyheder og lave popcorn igen. Vi var begge s fyldte ovenp alle de oplevelser vi havde i Yellowstone og Grand Teton at det eneste vi egentligt havde lyst til var bare at trkke stikket ud nogle dage og lave ingenting. Vi indlogerede os p en rigtig dejlig campground

I got into Fiji 3 days ago and I'm leaving for Vanuatu tomorrow morning. So Nadi...it's what I envision Cuba looking like 20 years ago it's pretty rundown. When the car picked me up from the airport all I could think was I hope the hostel isn't in downtown Nadi. I new it was on a beach but Nadi is on the water too. Anyways the hostel Smugglers Cove is on the edge of Nadi and has it's own
