Destination #5, Mackay

Not sure what to say that hasn’t already been said… this is the city that the Davis’ call home and we are excited to be spending time here once again. So far from our home but still welcoming and comfortable. A chance to catch up, chow down, drink up and slow down… time to digest our first 20-ish days of adventure while visiting our good friends. Now to do some laundry and pour a drink (not in that order)!Read more
Traveler Bonnie and Jason are looking awesome. It is so nice to spend some time with dear old friends.

Thank you

Just a quick shout-out to everyone who has read, followed and especially commented on our posts (we read all the comments, often more than once). We are so happy to hear (and read) that you are sharing in our adventure. There may be the occasional lag in our posts, but we are working hard to catch-up and keep-up with the stories and pictures.

And Thank you to our friends who have, sometimes against their will, ended up in our photos… awkward smiles, cut-off heads, muffin-tops and closed-eyes, we have them all and love them all!

Please keep coming back, we are not even at the half-way point yet!Read more
Traveler I just love reading your posts and seeing what adventures you are up to next! The Did you know facts are quite entertaining too.

Reflections

Reflections after a month of travel…
Traveling is not always relaxing and laided-back. Sometimes is a stressful, sometimes it makes you think more than you would like, and sometimes it is a down-right worry. After almost a month of travel, I am not going to lie, we have been through all those emotions at some point already. Now that being said we have seen and done great things, enjoyed time with friends and found many moments that are more than worth it.
We have already reminisced about where we have been and how ‘long ago’ it was since we drank beer at NWT Brewing in Yellowknife or drank beer at the Anaheim Brewery in California or drank beer at Les 3 Brasseurs in Tahiti… oh ya and rode the Radiator Springs Racers in Disneyland or paddle boarded in Bora Bora. We are so fortunate that the adventures keep coming and the experiences continue to amaze us. But moving through the places and spaces of this trip keeps you on your toes and double-checking.
So far we have enjoyed destinations with amazing weather, and that certainly lends itself to relaxation and comfort… and hopefully that continues.
We are sharing some amazing sights, sounds and experiences with our children and with any luck making memories that will not soon be forgotten.
As we step on new continents, step into new cities and maybe step out of our comfort zone we want to leave tracks that encourage our kids to never stop exploring.

With many memories behind us and our eyes looking ahead of us the adventure continues…Read more

Traveler I cannot believe how much the boys look like they have grown up.
