After having a short couple of hours in our very nice hotel, New Riverside Hotel, a quick shower and nap, we got ready to start our adventure.
First we got lunch in the town center, western food, which was not all that great... but the fresh papaya juice more than made up for it! It was so good and the best one of the trip. Back at the hotel, our bikes were assigned to us (we had previously sent Read on...

We all slept really well in the hotel, thanks in part to the cocktails! We got up, found a Dunkin, and headed to our final destination. The trip took way longer than we anitcipated. First, Theresas tire was low on air and we had to stop at two gas stations to find an air machine that worked. Then, the traffic was really rough in places, particularly around Philadelphia. There were no easy rest sto Read on...

Day 1 Woke up early . We are not due on the tunnel until tomorrow but Gabby is all packed up ready to go. She has been washed and provisioned .

The story of classic cars in Cuba is full of political and historical significance. This makes Cuban classic cars a beautiful addition to the urban landscape of Cuba and an important cultural artifact.
Cuba has never had a car manufacturing industry, so they relied solely on automotive imports to populate the islands roads. During the War, the first car imported into Cuba was a <em 0px; solid; Read on...
It was 67 and sunny when we left Seattle today. Hows the weather in Missouri? Thats probably a mean question. It feels like autumn outside here.
So what happened today? I was awake before 4am Seattle time (which is before 6am MO time) so I took a shower and got ready while Kamie slept. I finally woke him at 8:45am while I walked across the street to Starbucks. I had already downed two iced coffee Read on...

We see our apartment in the daylight for the first time. Its very big. It didnt seem so big last night when we were wandering around in the pitch black backstreets trying to find it. Its on the top floor, and its got a massive terrace right above the seafront with excellent views out over Marsaskala Bay.
Were a bit tired after a long day of travelling, but we eventually manage to rouse ourselves Read on...
The wifi here seems to get overwhelmed in the evening and I couldnt get yesterdays post uploaded before I went to bed. I woke up at 1:00 am and had internet service but couldnt log on to this site. When I woke up about 4:00 I tried it again and it worked but must have taken a half hour with all the photos. Luckily I slept till 8:20 which is unusual but Im happy for it.
Bacon and eggs were on my m Read on...
