Tuesday, June 16th, Day 19 of our trip and the 12th day in Newfoundland, was a long day of driving due to our Most Excellent detour to Gros Morne yesterday. We had 421 km to cover. We got off to an early start, mostly because we not only had...

Saturday, June 13, Day 16 of our trip and the 9th day in Newfoundland, was intended to be a full day at St. Anthony with another overnight stay there, but turned out to be a partial day then we drove south to Port au Choix to get better weather....

This is blog post #29 from our tour of northern Europe. We would take a tour/shuttle to Amsterdam with a 2-hour stop at Gouda, then fly to Iceland the next day, and on the third day, fly Reykjavik-Vancouver and Vancouver-Whitehorse. When I opened the curtains of our cabin on...

This is blog post #6 from our tour of Europe. Our final full day in Paris, Friday, June 27th, was a relatively slow day, with a walking tour of the area around our hotel and then a concert in the grandest local church. Saint-Germain-des-Prés is one of the four...

Although we didn’t put a lot of miles on the car on Monday, November 18th, I shot a lot of photos so am breaking the day into two posts, Kingman to Lake Havasu City, then on to Quartzsite where we overnighted. See an interactive map of the first part...

Sunday, November 17th – the stress of getting to Arizona was past. In my current state it’s hard to believe that I used to travel, and arrange and coordinate travel, for a living. But for the next week we’d be on the road in a particularly beautiful car, so...

There wasn’t anything important to tell you about for 6 weeks, but I just returned last night from a wonderful road trip in Arizona with my daughter, and now I have lots to tell you about and show you. This was pretty much a spur-of-the-moment trip – after deciding...

It’s now the evening of June 22, but I’m continuing to back-date the posts about our cruise-based trip as if I had posted them as we were travelling, which I was unable to do. This post covers June 11th and 12th, and the final one will be about the...
