Flashback Friday Travel Photo Memories 21 – Honeymoon in Stellenbosch
As private garden spaces go, this verdant spot at a Boutique winery in Cape Town is pretty damn perfect! This was the garden outside our cottage at Camberley Wines. As you can see the cottage comes with a lovely labrador (the owner’s, but he seemed to like the sunny terrace and the view…
View PostBest of 2014
What I have loved (and, frequently hated) about this year is that I have captured and recorded a photo for every day of the year – just one left to go for tomorrow! I’ve put them all in one place if you want to have a rapid look! It’s been interesting, and flicking back…
View PostFlashback Friday Travel Photo Memories 19 – Dorset “I do”!
This is one of my favourite photos (and days)! Given the camera we had at the time – it is even more amazing! Mr P was in the process of changing jobs but had some time on his hands – so he’d done a bit of ‘shopping’! Before the new job started, off…
View PostTravel Advent Calendar – A Rural Retreat for Christmas
As part of the #traveladventcalendar I am taking this opportunity to tell you about a lovely Christmas we had in the middle of nowhere a few years ago! The year that we got married had been busy so at Christmas we decided on a rural retreat, just the two of us. It was…
View PostWinter is the time to update the travel bucket list
It’s amazing how much a travel bucket list can change, even since I started writing this blog! Granted I have checked off a few places that had been on the hit-list for a while (Greece, Sardinia, the Giants Causeway), but the list changes depending on what we see and enjoy from our travels,…
View PostFlashback Friday Travel Photo Memories 18 – The Cheshire Loop
“There is nothing, absolutely nothing, half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats” wrote Kenneth Graeme in Wind in the Willows! And he was right! And what was also interesting was that ‘boats’ don’t have to have sails (my preferred option) – they can actually have engines and very unpowerful…
View PostOnly 31 photos left in #project365 – here’s November
I took a deep breath at the start of November – there was an incredible amount to fit in! Sitting here in December – I managed it and I’m not exhausted! Flights being on time (and flat beds) really do make travel much easier to cope with! So – November dawned like another…
View PostUPDATED Washington Dulles BA Lounge & the BA216 A380 home
Just a couple of weeks ago, British Airways opened its new Galleries lounge at Washington Dulles Airport, coinciding with the new BA A380 route between IAD and London Heathrow. As chance would have it last week I was flying British Airways business class to and from Washington and so was able to visit! Not…
View PostFlashback Friday Travel Photo Memories 10 – Morocco
Morocco was a fam trip that my husband was invited on where I was able to go to – perfect result, and a great long weekend away in somewhere I hadn’t before considered. Ever since – I’ve been trying to get back there, but we just haven’t managed it so far sadly. We…
View PostInteresting characters from our travels
Another great link up idea, thanks to the lovely ladies Emma, Kelly, Rebecca and Molly – most interesting travel characters! Well apart from the best celeb spot and conversation that we have so far managed in the British Airways Concorde Lounge I had to have quite a think about this…. We don’t tend to make…
View PostFlashback Friday Travel Photo Memories 9 – Minorca Sailing
Not all holidays have to be relaxing, although we did have plenty of time to relax when we weren’t sailing! Minorca Sailing is one of the better equipped beach sailing companies and they also are very good at race training and racing for experienced sailors! We had a week down there honing our…
