Alexander Stanley: Cervinia 2015
http://alex-stanley.blogspot.com/2015/02/cervinia-2015.html
Saturday, 28 February 2015. Skiing, at long last some skiing again. Of course I could not resist to take my camera with me and stop to take some pictures. However I did have my real camera and tripod with me as well. Here are some of the pictures I took, more can be found in my Cervinia 2015 album. The mountain at night. This was taken from the other side - Zermatt. Think Toblerone. And finally, 50 additional points for whoever can guess where this picture was taken (and what it is). St Andrews, Scotland.

Alexander Stanley: Traveling Scotland
http://alex-stanley.blogspot.com/2014/12/traveling-scotland.html
Wednesday, 3 December 2014. Sunrise over Loch Lomond. Thanks to a visit from my brother and sister I had an excuse to go and explore some more of Scotland. After the, in the mean time almost obligatory, stay at the Oak Tree Inn. We drove past Kilchurn Castle and Glencoe to the island of Mull. Here we stayed at a cottage in the middle of nowhere for a few days. Sunset at the beach in Calgary, Mull. To see the full album). The night sky from in front of our cottage.

A Tramp Abroad: January 2008
http://stevestrampabroad.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Steves travels through Asia and Europe search of the finest objet dart, cafes and cheese shops. Saturday, January 12, 2008. I've done my dash in Malacca, so Thursday morning and it's time to make tracks for Singapore. I seem to be waking up early these days, and just make the 8am bus. I like the sign on the bus - no smoking, no food or drink, no durians! For those unfamiliar with this, the King of Fruit, Wikipedia describes it thus:. The hard outer husk is covered with sharp, prickly thorns,. Sign langua...

A Tramp Abroad: Sorrento and surrounds
http://stevestrampabroad.blogspot.com/2014/11/sorrento-and-surrounds.html
Steves travels through Asia and Europe search of the finest objet dart, cafes and cheese shops. Tuesday, November 25, 2014. It can’t be as bad as that, can it? There are a few who say the crime is over-hyped, and it’s no worse than you’d get in any big city. Nikki visited a few months ago without problems, but did concede a level of grunge-chic. I double-check that my valuables are tucked away in my bag or behind zipped or domed pockets. With a large suitcase in tow it’s impossible to be incons...The tra...

A Tramp Abroad: April 2011

Steves travels through Asia and Europe search of the finest objet dart, cafes and cheese shops. Friday, April 29, 2011. Matala to Knossos/Heraklion, Crete. With this Greek tragedy strongly in our minds, we make our way to the ancient Minoan palace at Knossos. Would there be any traces of Daedalus' handiwork after 4,000 years? We peer down reconstructed rooms, but there's no sign or description of a labyrinth - was it all just a myth? Fortunately the Venetian fort remains. We bus to our hotel, Manos Studi...

Steves travels through Asia and Europe search of the finest objet dart, cafes and cheese shops. Sunday, February 13, 2011. It was Graham who said in November, "I'll be in Melbourne on business early next year. Who wants to do a track day at Phillip Island with me? That started the wheels turning. Come late January and the date had firmed up to Friday 11 February. I was pacing around like a bear with a sore head. I really really want to do it, but can I afford it so close to leaving for Europe? But the re...

A Tramp Abroad: Hong Kong and home
http://stevestrampabroad.blogspot.com/2014/12/hong-kong-and-home.html
Steves travels through Asia and Europe search of the finest objet dart, cafes and cheese shops. Friday, December 5, 2014. Hong Kong and home. 30 November. Our final day in Italy, in Europe. The trip’s coming to an end - now it’s the homeward leg. Arriving in Hong Kong is like revisiting an old friend. It’s a bit like flying in to the Northcote Shopping Centre, only a little bigger and with worse traffic. Even better, we’re on Graham St where the local food market’s located. You’re n...Situated across the...
