It’s about time …

So it’s taken me longer to process all the photos and get them online than my holiday took, but all the good stuff is now there. Next time I’m making my holiday much shorter, so avoid post-holiday photo trauma. Continue reading

Well I am now travelling alone through a country I have no idea about; thank god they speak english!! I arrived in Singapore, said my farewells to Maia and Leigh, brief though they were. Checked out of customs and picked up my baggage. On that note I have to say Singapore has so far been the best Airport I have travelled in, although I am a bit confused about the supposed security. I really have to say so far Australia… Continue reading
After the previous days power bus tour, we decided to do it again earlier so we could see the sites. First stop, Musee D’Orsay, museum with many famous artworks from ye olde artistes such as Moset, Van Gogh, Renoir, Cezanne, list goes on. Some cool stuff, some crap stuff, spent about 3 hours checking it out before we got bored and hungry, so we wandered to find lunch and dessert. Next stop, had a brief look at the famous Opera… Continue reading
Before arriving in Paris we booked (well I really should say Stef and Leigh booked) a hotel room in the Latin quarter right next to the Bastile monument. Pretty simple hotel but close and easy. We arrived in Paris in the evening so it was straight to dinner for us all. It was Stefs last night in Paris so we decided to eat in style, so we ate at the oldest resturaunt in Paris called Bofingers. Fairly nice dinner although… Continue reading

It was a very pretty train trip travelling through the mountains between France and Italy, would make a nice quiet getaway around there, with waterfalls coming off the… Continue reading

There, nice little summary, now its time for the detail…….. Continue reading
The title says it all. Continue reading
When Leigh and I first decided to travel together overseas it was more of a melding of two trips. I wanted to go to Turkey, Leigh wanted to go to France. The rest of the trip was pretty much made up of us getting from Turkey to France. Occasionally I get asked the question why Turkey? Well after some thinking I have decided the reason why I have always wanted to go to Turkey was because of an abiding memory… Continue reading
