Scottish West Coast Staycation

Thursday, 16th September 2021

One positive, if such thing makes any sense, from Covid-19 is that many people have discovered just how amazing parts of the UK are! Is there really any need to fly to far flung parts for our holidays every year? Well, I guess climbers always knew this as we spend every weekend, holiday day, etc. …

Washington DC

Friday, 18th October 2019

Laetitia had some work to do in Washington (work, huh, but the bills do need paying 😉 ) which gave us an opportunity to tag an adventure on to the journey and explore a part of the US we might not have ever explored otherwise…

Rome

Monday, 4th March 2019

Laetitia was off to Rome for a week with her work, so we stole the opportunity to head out for the weekend before and enjoy a sight seeing city break…

Athens

Tuesday, 4th December 2018

Our time in Leonidio came to an end all too quickly and it was time to start the journey home. But we had planned to take advantage of our location and explore a little of perhaps what makes Greece one of the most famous places on Earth and certainly one of the most ancient civilisations …

Vosges

Saturday, 14th July 2018

On our trip south for the Marmotte we decided to break up the journey… This had several benefits – We visited Belgium and saw the Atomium in Brussels, We visited Luxembourg City, We saved a massive amount of money on tolls by not using French motorways, and We happened across the Vosges Mountains…

Panoramic Route

Saturday, 24th March 2018

After our amazing safari experience the final part of our South African adventure was to take in the Panoramic Route on our way back to Johannesburg…

Cape Town

Saturday, 24th March 2018

We’ve wanted to visit South Africa for years and years, and this year events conspired to make it possible…

Champagne & the Great War – weird extremes, Luxury & Suffering

Thursday, 3rd August 2017

On the way home from the Briancon we broke the journey down by calling in on the Champagne region to find out if any deals were to be had. They were! We grabbed a box of six bottles of Canard – Duchene for much much less than we pay back in the UK. 🙂

Dinner and flowers

Monday, 24th April 2017

I had thoughtâ€‹ that the meal organised by a local bar for the people in the B&B would be the culinary highlight of the trip. I hadn't counted on the fantastic festival in the nearby town of Girasole
