June 30 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 31 °CSo we survived the bumpy little flight here and realised we have another night in a bed in a lodge here before we head into the canyon. So I have some cell reception. Met the rest of our 19 person group. They seem really fun and we already have a tab at the bar at the lodge.
June 29 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 34 °CRecovering from a rough start to the trip last night. Thunderstorms in Dulles meant we left 2:30 late so arrived in Vegas at 11pm local time. Then unusually toby left his bag on the plane so we had another45 min delay while we sorted they out. Needless to say we crashed hard when we finally got toRead more

June 29 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 35 °CSo the trip improved with some time by the pool yesterday , a nice sushi meal and seeing cirque de soleil -O. Definitely the most amazing show I have ever seen. Hard to describe but it is the largest swimming pool in the US and it seems to appear and disappear as the performers do amazing dancesRead more
Martin SeedSo things got better quickly Nici! Sounds an amazing show. We love Oliver’s hair- so he now has a long term ambition to join the British army to march and protect Buckingham Palace without needing any extra headgear!? Guess you won’t read this til the end of the rafting so we look forward to your next post!!
December 30, 2017 in Cayman Islands ⋅ ☀️ 28 °CWe decided to try parasailing this morning and booked for 10am. Oliver wasn’t feeling up to it so I decided to take the plunge. Not really a plunge - more of a feeling of being let out like a kite. Amazing fun and amazing views. Would very much recommend it. Even to us scaredy cats 🐈.
December 29, 2017 in Cayman Islands ⋅ ⛅ 28 °CFeeling very fortunate where our little apartment is located. We have a lovely quiet spot and a direct view of the ocean as well as the favourite spot for lots of lizard life. Sitting on the patio reading and enjoying the late evening softer heat is perfect.
December 27, 2017 in Cayman Islands ⋅ ⛅ 27 °CWe have a car for a day to explore a bit and show Dominik the island. Walked up to hertz around 11am and couldn’t quite persuade toby to rent the big Volkswagen bus.

August 10, 2017 in Kenya ⋅ ⛅ 21 °CSitting in the lounge in Nairobi catching up on my last post from Zanzibar about the hotel. It was a different feel than the other places we stayed - all inclusive and much larger. It had a weird mix of German honeymooners and Eastern European and French families. Not many native English speakers.Read more
