http://global-citizen-01.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Join me in my wanderings around the globe via these online ramblings in far off places. Sunday, 29 August 2010. Cairns: the Rusty’s Ritual. Occasionally I actually make it home to Cairns. Yes, even I find it hard to believe I have a home, but for the last week or so I have been home. And if I am home over a weekend there’s always one thing I want to try and do, and that’s make it to Rusty’s Markets. So yesterday I fired up the beast and drove into town to do the. Driving to Rusty’s. Rusty’s Market ...

Comments and miscellany from a denizen of Australia's Deep North : :. Tuesday, February 22, 2011. The lyrics to Everybody's Free to Wear Sunscreen, by Mary Schmich:. If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long-term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice now.

:: M M V I I ::: Shanghai Public Transport
http://mmvii.blogspot.com/2012/12/shanghai-public-transport.html
Comments and miscellany from a denizen of Australia's Deep North : :. Saturday, December 01, 2012. Probably the best Metro in the world in Shanghai. Extensive, very cheap, clean, safe and very frequent trains - every 2 or 3 minutes. Have to admit feeling a bit daunted but after a few days of wild taxi rides and sitting in traffic jams, bit the bullet and googled the Shanghai Metro, found a webpage. Also downloaded a Shanghai Metro. Awesome that one can use these cards in Taxis as well - Seamless! Feast o...

http://mmvii.blogspot.com/2011/02/morello-cherries.html
Comments and miscellany from a denizen of Australia's Deep North : :. Wednesday, February 16, 2011. Finally got to taste fresh Morello cherries from a pick your own orchard in Plenty, north west of Hobart. Quite tart in taste and a lovely change from "regular" cherries. Having not lived in Tasmania for several decades now, are they similar to the old Kentish Cherry variety which was also quite tart but great for jams and stewing? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Comments and miscellany from a denizen of Australia's Deep North : :. Saturday, December 01, 2012. Wow, first day in Shanghai dawned cool and clear, perfect for a promenade on the iconic Bund. Not ready to tackle the Metro so caught a taxi from Citidines. Had an idea to get a ferry from the Pudong side across to the Bund on the Puxi side so asked the concierge at Citidines to write down the name and address of the Pudong ferry terminal. Discovered the amazing Fairmont Peace Hotel. Feast of the Senses.

Comments and miscellany from a denizen of Australia's Deep North : :. Saturday, December 01, 2012. To be invaluable for getting around by taxi in Shanghai, one just has to bring up the destination and it lists the address in Mandarin as well as English. With the iPad I just had to show the driver the webpage on the iPad screen, who would read the address in Mandarin script and we'd be away. Twice though we encountered taxi drivers who couldn't read so were forced to find another taxi. Feast of the Senses.
