And yet another early start, after packing up and having breakfast we boarded the jeeps taking us through Wadi Rum to board our coach to take us to Petra.
Checked into hotel, quite a change from last 2 nights, luxury, dumped our bags and then headed to Petra to see one of the wonders of the world.
Lots and lots of history here, you were offered a horse ride on entering but we were advised agains Read on...
It was a lively night in the bar last night. I was able to watch my beloved Blues enjoy an unexpected triumph on one of the big TV screens.

Too much driving today. Nearly 700kms. Road surfaces varied from smooth gravel, very dusty surfaces, rough stone, narrow one lane bitumen, bitumen wide enough for two vehicles to pass but with no shoulder. This was surprising for us as Mt Isa is a major town in Qld. There were more Floodways, creeks (mainly dry) and river crossings (also mainly dry or with pooled water), than on any other road tr Read on...

At wide with a drop, this waterfall roars. You can feel its power up close with a strenuous walk up a windy set of stairs up to a stunning viewpoint.

We did the trekking course on Dollis Valley Greenwalk from Whetstone to Mill Hill East on 11th May and found its northern route course – we decided to do the latter course on 31st May. I felt that we would be doing country walk; so we would have a picnic lunch at Arnos Park in the lunch time before approaching Whetstone/Totteridge.
The 251 bus was running as normal on the Bank Holiday and it br Read on...
One thing I did not mention in my previous blog the WC are mixed - yes mixed - and there are no toilet seats, however, at least they were not just foot wells with a long drop!
It was a quiet day so we decided to go into Orleans which was a bit of a walk and then a tram into the centre - which was nice using different transport.
We found the cathedral in the centre and it looked splendid with all Read on...
Greetings and a Merry Christmas! I am writing this entry after my first venture off the island of Great Britain in nearly two years! Yay – how wonderful, and I feel truly blessed to have been able to do this. Whilst Great Britain is certainly a beautiful island, and I have very much enjoyed exploring more of it these last two years due to the circumstances, it is still an island, and for a trave Read on...
Today we‘ll be taking the three plus hour drive south east from here in Canmore to Lethbridge where Emma and Michael live.
Its a regular zoo out on the road. We start off on the Trans Canada Highway, which, as the name suggests, goes right across the country and is one of the worlds longest roads. This isnt enough however to stop deer appearing at random in front of trucks herbing along at 110 Read on...
