An eclectic collection of thoughts, stories and ideas - come for the wit, stay for the charm. Tuesday, May 18, 2010. Hello all. So we have left Toronto. No more Canada for us for a while. All we saw was Ontario and a little of Montreal, but we loved it, and Toronto was really good to us. I am now a Blue Jays / Raptors fan, which I hear makes for promising starts of seasons, but disappointing finishes. Little Havana in Miami. View from the front of our place in Miami Beach.

So Steph and I got hold of a car for a couple of weeks and over Spring Break went on a little road trip. The plan was to get to the Grand Canyon, but due the massiveness of this country it just wasn't feasible. We ended up doing some camping at two national parks: Sequoia National Park and Joshua Tree National Park. Highway in the Mojave. We camped nex...

An eclectic collection of thoughts, stories and ideas - come for the wit, stay for the charm. Thursday, December 11, 2008. So after Allepey we headed up into the mountains to Munnar. It was a nice little town surrounded by thousands of hectares of TATA Tea Plantations. We spent a few nights here walking around, watching people pick tea, drinking tea, smelling tea leaves and generally enjoying the cooler tea atmosphere. Tea Pickers and lots of Tea. So, contrary to what others. Posted by Tony Hawke. Contra...

It was hard work but super amazing. A view very near the glacier (the actual glacier wasn't so impressive). It was mostly a donkey trail used to supply the villages in the valleys on the way so was easy to navigate and we were able to get meals and beds in guest houses all the way along. The perfect trek.

Home is indeed as sweet as they say it is and I am loving being out here on the farm with my family. Mums cooking is still the best ever and Cookie Time. S are still super tasty. So from India we popped into Singapore and saw Rowan. For a few days, sneaked up to Malaysia for a little peak and spent a small amount of time with Dave.

An eclectic collection of thoughts, stories and ideas - come for the wit, stay for the charm. Thursday, May 29, 2008. I should stop following New Zealand sports teams when they come to Europe. My trip to Paris didn't help the All Blacks cause at the Rugby World Cup, and I don't think I helped the Black Caps in the test against England in the Cricket. Oh well, I had fun. The weekend just passed Andy. I spent the day after the cricket looking forward to another curry on the Curry Mile. The street festival ...

An eclectic collection of thoughts, stories and ideas - come for the wit, stay for the charm. Monday, August 02, 2010. So over the Pyranees we went into France. There wasnt even a sign to indicate the border, we only knew for sure we were in France when people started greeting us with Bonjour rather than ola. The Pyranees and Spain well behind us. The chaos before the race. The front line of the Tour de France. Farms, trees and the occasional pretty town. thats rural France. So we hit St Emilion. whi...

An eclectic collection of thoughts, stories and ideas - come for the wit, stay for the charm. Sunday, March 14, 2010. Canada: Toronto, Haliburton Highlands. Our street with a little bit of snow. Looking towards downtown from China Town. Toronto Raptors game. I was going to be a fan, until I went to one game where they just didn't want to win. it was embarrassing. And they love it too which was nice. We got to drive the sleds, yelling commands at the dogs and everything. I'm standing on a lake! Philadelph...
