Saturday, August 30, 2008. Under The (Mongolian) Weather. We're spent the last couple of nights living in a traditional. Tent-like structure) - the scenery was breath-taking, and the air was breath-able, which is a nice change after smoggy China. While at the ger. We went horse riding, visited a nomad family at their ger. Dairy products and made the most of the lovely views. Wednesday, August 27, 2008. Blueberry Flavoured Potato Chips. The worst chip idea.

Gawne Travelling: Home
http://gawnetravelling.blogspot.com/2008/12/home.html
Wednesday, December 3, 2008. And so, like all adventures, this one has come to an end. I am back home, about to start the same job, as though nothing has happened in the last four months and I somehow just slept through spring. I certainly don't begrudge coming home, nor does my bank balance. One of the most important things you can have while travelling is a home worth coming back to, otherwise it's just too depressing passing through the arrivals gate.

Gawne Travelling: Jetlag in Japan
http://gawnetravelling.blogspot.com/2008/11/jetlag-in-japan.html
Wednesday, November 19, 2008. So it's been a whole week packed full of adventure and I haven't writen. Now I'm in an internet cafe at Tokyo airport and really can't put seven days of fun into one pithy post. Instead over the next week or so I'll post about my adventures, which will have the added benefit of delaying the inevidable self absorbed meta ramblings of the recently returned traveller. But now, to the duty free store! Did I just miss you in Japan? November 24, 2008 at 9:06 PM.

Gawne Travelling: Tokyo
http://gawnetravelling.blogspot.com/2008/11/tokyo.html
Wednesday, November 26, 2008. To prevent excessive rambling I'm just going to give my top three favourite things about each city that I visited in Japan. City number one, that sprawling metropolis, the capital of Japan; Tokyo. 2 Sukiji Fish Markets. But there I was on a crisp, clear morning, at a market the size of Vic Markets (ie BIG) dedicated to supplying the fishy needs of over 8 million people. It was a life and death experience walking through the mini carts used to haul the fish around, but we...

Gawne Travelling: November 2008
http://gawnetravelling.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 28, 2008. After a few jet lagged days in Tokyo we traded the bright lights and crowds for some time in Gotemba. Gotemba. It's the small city somewhere between Tokyo and Kyoto that Dave calls home. It could be said that it doesn't have a lot going for it as a tourist town, except for the fact that it's situated on the side of a giant inactive volcano. So, three cool things about Gotemba:. Oh, you're actually on Mt Fuju. This is endlessly amusing. Fuji, of course. It was t-shirt weather fo...

Tuesday, September 30, 2008. No Rain In Spain. Despite the fact that a turn in the weather has been predicted since my parents arrived here ten days ago, every day has consistently been clear blue skys, sunny and mid-twenties. And so it was when we took a couple of hours drive across the border to visit Spain - well, more specifically, the small holiday villiage of Cadaques. There were a lot of trucks from lots of different places heading out of Spain; from Portugal to Turkey, Sweden to Italy, all going ...

Friday, October 31, 2008. England (the telly, the weather, the cake.). These three thngs are really of great importance while in England. most of my time over here is generally spent visiting family, which means we get a lot of chance to watch the local TV content, discuss the weather and eat cake. Thus I will tell you all about these things, as they are at the forefront of my activities. Tomorrow Claire and i are off to London to terrify the good citizens of that fair town. Saturday, October 25, 2008.
