There are some 165 plus rivers in the world. 165 includes the longest ones from 7000-1000 km from the Nile believed to be the longest in the world but balanced against the Amazon that may, in fact, be the longest. Being on a river brings me closer to water that is a natural high for …

Santiago Sit-in
3/4/16 What to do in Santiago? Most of yesterday, my second full day in this Chilean city, I simply sat in the Plaza des Armas (there's one of these too in Lima, Peru!), in the warm sunshine that arrives later in the day it seems, around 2-3 pm. Why just sit? Well, I was tired, …
Ha Long Bay A long trip
Today I'm off to Ha Long Bay, where amazingly I had a picture as my screen saver for years, not knowing where it was but wishing I could go to see it. now I will! Bus took ages to arrive, waiting from 7.445 to 9 am, then four hours on the bus. I did though …
Jungle camp!
When we camped, which is usually the last night of the tours - hadn't been sure whether to go or not, and Susan and Tom had returned to Iquitos the previous day - I didn't realise this and just thought I was going on a new jungle walk so didn't tale anything like extra clothes! …

Cheeky monkey!
I visited the temple today at Takiad near Hua Hin with monkeys running free. Cute as they seemed at first I bought a bucket of food to get the engagement with them but the big male I assume, jumped up and knocked the bucket of food from my hands so they could all get it …
A little learning …
Since I started my plans for travelling, I have learned a lot, mainly that there is a lot! A lot to learn, a lot to do, a lot to consider and choose, decide, share, explain, manage and monitor! Visas Image courtesy of Brandon Sigma via www. freedigitalphotos.com These are difficult to manage en mass, with a …
An elephant never forgets …
Well, things are moving on! Not quickly but steadily I think. I have a couple of weeks (not one as planned) to sort the house out - and there is lots to sort out! Trips to charity shops and rubbish tip, sorting what to keep, donate or throw - decisions, decisions! 🙂 I have …
