Barcelona

Barcelona has been and gone.


We had two full days in Barcelona and it was HOT! It was over 30 degrees. We spent the first day at the beach and we visited Park Guell the next day - along with alot of walking.



Our accommodation was fine. A private room in an airbnb, it was a lovely wife and husband with a little girl. It's always a little awkward being in another person's home, but they were very welcoming and it seemed like Patricia really enjoyed being a host. They made us breakfast every morning too which was lovely.


We found that it was quite difficult in Barcelona with reading restaurant menu's and signs around the city as very few of them were translated into English .
Overall, we enjoyed Barcelona but it doesn't top Amsterdam!
Our plane to Paris was delayed by three hours at Barcelona airport so there was a lot of waiting around. We met a very nice family who were waiting for the same plane as us. They were American but had lived in Havelock North, NZ for a few years a couple of years ago. We gave their two children some cards to play with before they went crazy waiting around.
I will post an update of Paris soon!

Hello :-)

Hello Everyone! Sorry we have been away from the computer the last few days! Both Theo and I have been unwell with a bad tummy bug :-S We were trapped in our Bangkok accommodation for about three days! Luckily we were able to do some exploring before and after all of this, and we are now at the airport heading to Chiang Mai for the week. Bangkok has been pretty chaotic, we started out just off Khaosan Road which is the backpackers central. In his element ordering Thai street food (Probably what made him sick !!) We then moved to a quieter area but still close to everything. We took the boat ferry for 14 Baht each ( 60 cents ) to the Grand Palace. What a beautiful place! But as usual, packed with tourists! On the boat taxi We saw a Symphony Orchestra in the park More updates to come. Miss and love you all xxx

$1 Camper!

Hi all! Yesterday we picked up our $1 a day relocation camper from Las Vegas..we have four days in this lovely beast and we are driving it to Denver Colorado. There's a lot more room than our dodge caravan that's for sure! It's got a full sized shower, toilet, kitchen with fridge,oven , microwave. It even extends out once parked to make more room! We fly out of Denver on the 13th to Washington DC for a few days or so. We'll then head to New York. :-) Everything is swell!  Woohoo! Super excited! Breakfast this morning made by the fabulous Grace
