Our lovely start to Newcastle UK and Bamburgh Castle Thanks to our kind friends in Accrington who gave us a ride in their new 4WD all the way to Newcastle. There waiting for us was our next fun host, Maxine. I met Max at a wedding in Perth many years ago, pre-child. And we hit […]
Accrington near Preston UK. Staying in a meadow. We left Liverpool and our friends drove us to Accrington. As we drove up the town street, it suddenly changed to a stony road. Before we knew it, we were in the hills. The view was magnificent across the meadows and green fields, looking out onto the […]
Liverpool England UK with a 9-year-old We are staying with friends just on the edge of Liverpool, so being a bank holiday weekend, we decide that it might be best to head in on Friday and explore. We catch the train to the city. It is spring but the wind is biting and we sit there […]
The Beatles Story Liverpool England It’s been a ‘Hard Days Night’ is playing as we wander into The Beatles Story. Once inside we learn about where the boys grew up. Schools, first bands and general youth of The Beatles. It shows posters and a stage remake of their days in Cavern. You can choose to […]
Llangollen and Conwy to Chester We left Llangollen town and journeyed out to Trevor to capture a photograph of the Aqueduct. From here we became lost. These twisty windy roads with their Welsh names of the next town seem to all merge together. We have little way of knowing which way to go. Left becomes […]
Blarney Church Ireland, and a coming together of churches I had been in Ireland for over a week, and one of the reasons I have stayed around in the Cork area is because I was invited to share at an International Day of Prayer. This is to be held in the Blarney Church, but what […]
How our road trip all began The greatest moments during our trips have been made by the interactions we have had with strangers, the random acts of kindness from us, and the beautiful sceneries we have spotted along the way. As we land in Florida, we know that this is the very same experience we […]
Road Trip to Sedona The weather today is perfect as we set out on our road trip to Sedona from Flagstaff Arizona. The snow has started melting on the ground and so we have a chance to hit the road for Sedona. We pass through a lovely windy road on our way, and a spine forest can […]
Gorgeous Palm Springs and an overtired single Mum We leave San Diego mid-afternoon for our next family travel journey and decide to drive to Palm Springs. We arrive and it is just starting to get dark. We have no idea Gay Pride Festival is on this weekend, so most reasonable hotels are booked out. Luxury […]
SeaWorld San Diego For Kids We are having a great time on our new adventure – a road trip through California and into neighboring states. I am glad we have a pass to access SeaWorld San Diego. This is part of a City Pass we purchased for Disneyland. This is nice since park entry is about […]
Legoland, San Diego We have just had the most delightful few days in Los Angeles and the family we stayed with has 2 Mums and 2 kids as it was a chance for us to share our lives as they shared their home before our road trip through San Diego began. For my son, it […]
California Adventure Park Luxury travel experts advise: Disney land is a very busy place. While on a family travel in California, we advise you get here as early as you can to beat the queues. By doing this, we figured out that our single parent travel would be more interesting, allowing us more time to […]
