Road tripping from Las Vegas to Zion National Park was a lot of fun. A 2.5 hour trip ended up taking me 4 hours, I’d see something that looked or sounded cool so I would veer off. My sat nav was losing patience with me, that’s for sure. I drove through a state park called…
2018 Cow Week at Vista Verde Ranch
My favourite week of all is Cow Week at VVR. It is just such an amazing time, in such a beautiful place with incredible people!! It was great to catch up with friends from last year and meet some new people as well. And the warmest of welcome you receive from the staff I had my…
2018 Portland, Oregon
The saying in Portland is “keep Portland weird” . . . and it’s a little weird, but oh so cool. 3 days there were definitely not enough. Portland is a foodie destination with their microbreweries putting them on the map. Downtown is a great place to walk around and discover food cart pods, microbreweries and…
2018 Roadtrip Days 3, 4 & 5 – Guerneville, CA to Astoria, OR
Well, it’s been a wonderful few days driving from Guerneville, California right up to Astoria, Oregon! Roughly about 668 miles, (1,075 km). But it didn’t feel that far, so, what was it like . . . ? AMAZING, driving up the Northern California coast and into Oregon is just so beautiful. The big tall Redwood…
2018 Roadtrip Day 1 & 2 – San Francisco to Guernaville
Day 1 of the roadtrip was amazing, such a great drive from San Francisco to Guernaville, passed through some very pretty little towns. I picked up the hire car from the airport (pretty cool, compact sized SUV) and using my trusty satnav I managed to work my way from the airport, across the Golden Gate…
Snowboarding into 2018
Quick update from yesterday as we didn’t post – we headed up the mountain in the morning to welcome 2018 after we grabbed our usual chicken sushi seaweed triangle for our breaky. The visibility was not that great but it was snowing and snowing and snowing – which will be great later. I managed to…
Japow-pow New Year’s Eve 2017
After waking up a little stiff and sore, I braved the mountain once again. We started off with a run that we were familiar with from yesterday’s lesson, but it wasn’t long til we were trying a few different chairlifts and runs. I’m still trying to master the graceful entry and exit onto and off…
Japow-pow Day 2
The day started off with a quick run to family mart (convenience store) to get some breakfast to fuel us for the action packed day ahead. After organising our lift passes we suited up and headed for the snow fields. It took us a while to find where we were meant to meet up but…
Japan Day 1
After dumping our bags in our hotel room (which we couldn’t find straight away, only to then find it was right next to where we had been standing trying to work out where it was), we went in search of dinner. We ended up finding a cool little place where we had to order our…
Nashville
I’ve just spent the past 3 days exploring the charming neighbourhoods of Nashville. I stayed in the most eclectic BnB in East Nashville – Urban Cowboy, it’s amazing. The neighbourhood of East Nashville is also quite eclectic with some great spots for shopping, coffee, food and drink. My first stop on Monday morning was to…
