I had the opportunity to visit San Antonio recently with a friend and explore what they had to offer. I wanted to share a few pictures with you all as it is a beautiful place. I dont have pictures of the Alamo here as I visited it a full tour a couple years ago. Initially we visited the Nowhere Bookstore, an independent bookstore created by author Jenny Lawson. We then followed the Missions Trail Read on...
First of all we went for breakfast at 8am only to find we should have previously booked a table and the next sitting was 9.30. After some irritable discussions we arranged for our money back and sped off along the cycleway through Lancaster to Glasson Dock where we had bacon/ egg buns and hot drinks ( eventually) out in the sun which had just arrived. I think we created chaos by arriving so early Read on...
Bob did suggest we could stay at the Merry campsite for another day but I was aware of the day of the week, Friday, and that the Mesnil campsite was likely to be busy at the weekend because it is by a lake so undoubtedly gets a lot of weekend visitors. Also no pool at the Merry site and Ive swum every day except first couple on the Somme before the weather warmed up and at Merry. Easy to drive of Read on...

Waited in the van all day, not knowing when the auto electrician might get here. Went in the heated pool mid afternoon, enjoying the relief from the warm temperatures. Put a marinated Pork roast in the Weber at 330, then received a call from the auto electrician saying he would arrive in 20 minutes. It took him from 420 to 530 to swap the chargers over & solder the wires in. In the meantime, the Read on...
Carnival Sunshine arrived off Curaao after 11:00 a.m. on the third day of the cruise. Curaao, along with Aruba and Bonaire (the ABC islands), has been a Dutch possession since the 17th century. Despite their proximity, we found the ABC islands have little interaction with one another. There is no ferry service, for example, between them. The ship sailed at a leisurely pace along the 30 mile long Read on...
So, what is it like in quarantine? First, you set your alarm an hour before going into port so you can see some of the scenery from your balcony. You pray the ship docks on the starboard side so that you can see into the city. Yeah, it did today. (Well really yesterday) One of the and takes vitals in the morning. Then, you start your routine of room service, movies, reading, checking news and emai Read on...
By this, I mean, have you been to a place that no longer exists? The most likely, for Vietnam vets, would be North and South Vietnam, now a united Vietnam. places, that no longer exist would be Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), the USSR, Czechoslovakia (now Slovakia and Czech Republic), Yugoslavia (now Slovenia and Croatia), and East and West Germany (now Germany). Contrast this to places whose names have Read on...
My husband and I have traveled since the very beginning of our relationship. Come to think of it; we were long distance the first 8 months we were together. So, we literally had to travel to even see each other. This proves long distance relationships can work out. Its 11 years later, 8 years married, and hes still my favorite travel companion. In preparation for this Blog I was looking through s Read on...
