http://garyandmags.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Nothing better to do? Follow us on our amazing and implausible journies around the globe. Wednesday, March 28, 2007. Queensland, as hot as chip fat. We flew north to visit Glenys and her boys Zak and Adam. We generally hung out for a week basking in the sunshine and relaxing. We helped Glenys celebrate her? Birthday on the 6th March and received some wonderful news from home where our niece Leah had given birth to Sarah Louise in the same day, making Mags a Great Auntie – but don’t tell anyone. We spent ...

Gary and Mags: September 2014
http://garyandmags.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Nothing better to do? Follow us on our amazing and implausible journies around the globe. Wednesday, September 17, 2014. We decided to take a mini break from our big break. This was prompted by British Airways writing to us informing us that we’d lose our air miles if we didn’t use them soon. We checked out destinations from City Airport and chose Stockholm. I hadn’t been this far north before and I could feel my hair becoming blonder as we neared our destination. We lunched at Omermalmstorg Saluhall in ...

Nothing better to do? Follow us on our amazing and implausible journies around the globe. Monday, September 12, 2011. We finally arrived after the endless flight. I started to fret that the Aussies might regain the Ashes before I arrived. I’d only come to rub it in. We booked a day trip on a small plane visiting some of the local attractions. First stop Windjana Gorge in the Napier range ( www.kimberleyaustralia.com/windjana-gorge-national-park.html. The scenic flight back took us over countless tiny isl...

Nothing better to do? Follow us on our amazing and implausible journies around the globe. Friday, June 06, 2014. We’re now back home where the weather is 23 and sunny, just like Sydney. I achieved a lifetime ambition earlier today due to the jet lag, I arrived at Borough market early, and had a pint in the Market Porter before early closing at 9am. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Nothing better to do? Follow us on our amazing and implausible journies around the globe. Tuesday, June 21, 2011. We bade a fond farewell to the U S of A and flew up to the Rockies (Adrian! We’re at Banff, after a brief orientation stop in Calgary. We’re now back to ordering two mains at restaurants instead of sharing one, as was the practice south of the border. Sunday, June 12, 2011. Magical Mystery Tour - Part 2. We were more fortunate on our next outing and had a wonderful hour among the spectacular ...

Nothing better to do? Follow us on our amazing and implausible journies around the globe. Tuesday, March 20, 2012. Down and out in Paris. Wandering around the Morais, nudging Mags past ‘cute’ boutiques, it occurred to me that Paris must have 90% of the world’s population of wicker chairs all spread invitingly on the pavements welcoming visitors for a leisurely vin rouge or two. Yes, we’re in Paris for the weekend, a well deserved break for Mags after a week or two of hard labour in Canary Wharf. After a ...

http://garyandmags.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Nothing better to do? Follow us on our amazing and implausible journies around the globe. Saturday, May 21, 2011. Were now on the mystery part of our trip as we haven’t booked anything until we land in Canada, so were going to set off this morning heading roughly north and see what we find. Hopefully Oregon and then Washington unless things have changed recently. Tuesday, May 17, 2011. Wednesday, May 04, 2011. Unfortunately for us, the Pacific Highway, which runs along the coast to San Francisco, was clo...

Gary and Mags: July 2014
http://garyandmags.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Nothing better to do? Follow us on our amazing and implausible journies around the globe. Wednesday, July 09, 2014. Stage 1 St. Bees to Ennerdale Bridge 23.5 km (14.5 miles). First you have to get to the start, which is St, Bees on the Cumbrian coast. For us this was a fast train to Carlisle and then a two carriage country train that trundles along with the novelty of request stops. It ran into St Bees eventually after a pretty journey along the coast. We ran into the Texans (How y’all) in the pub ...

Gary and Mags: April 2011
http://garyandmags.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Nothing better to do? Follow us on our amazing and implausible journies around the globe. Wednesday, April 27, 2011. It’s hot, hot, hot here with the mercury approaching 90F. Naturally, this requires frequent refreshment. We found a very cooling Mexican place serving wonderful Margueritas so we settled in there for a few hours. The restaurants here have water pipes spraying a fine mist onto the diners outside to keep everyone cool, very impressive considering we’re in the desert. Saturday, April 16, 2011.

Nothing better to do? Follow us on our amazing and implausible journies around the globe. Tuesday, March 10, 2009. We did manage a very strange meal in Palermo as we found a Chinese restaurant and, after 3 weeks of Italian food, we fancied a change. The meal was mostly memorable for the surreal experience of ordering Chinese food in Italian. We really must get a pack of cards. Sunday, March 01, 2009. Cantania is on the east coast of Sicily facing the Ionian sea and nestled in the shadow of Mount Etna, Eu...
