A wonderful holiday but as usual we are glad to be home.

It's finally arrived - our last day before we head to our favourite destination of all.
Another day doing very little before we take the short flight to Honolulu for the night. Just a little sight seeing.

Another quiet day that started with the regular check for turtles at out front door and then a couple of hours at "our" beach.
Then back home for some more post midday planning and preparation (otherwise known as an afternoon nap).
We ended the day with a few more nibblies, a cold beer and aRead more

After a hot night (no air conditioning but a little breeze) we left for a short drive to the beach. Great spot just down the road.
Stayed for an hour or so and then took the scenic drive home - it took two hours! A very, very narrow mountain road.

Caught a morning flight to the island of Maui where we plan to have 3 days of rest.
Checked in to our beachside retreat and that's about enough for the day!
Well done folks, you never missed a beat and took in all the great things that your trip had to offer. Shame about Alcatraz but never mind. The Maui accommodation looks absolutely fantastic and a very rewarding rest for both of you. Chilkl out and we will see you soon

Thursday morning and today is Alcatraz day. We caught the bus to Pier 33 and found the only company that tours the island. No tickets until Monday!
Time to adjust the itinerary and instead we took a cruise around the bay that included a close look at Alcatraz (from the boat) and a ride under theRead more

It was interesting but I thought the fans would be more into the game.
The main attractions were food, beer, catching the fly balls, watching yourself on TV and I nearly forgot - the baseball!
For the record the Giants beat the Pirates 5-4. The Pirates scored 4 home runs in the 8th innings to makeRead more

Another busy day exploring San Francisco.
We took the hop-on hop-off bus that covered all the main attractions.

A day spent driving from Mammoth Lakes to San Francisco.
We decided to take the Sonora Pass over the mountains. It was a different drive to Yosemite but equally as interesting. A road less travelled!
We reached just under 10,000 feet again (Kosciusko is 7,310 feet) .
A highlight was road works whereRead more

Drove to Yosemite National Park and spent the day exploring.
It was quite beautiful and it would be absolutely incredible in the winter/snowy season.
We finished a full day with a very nice Mexican meal in the Mammoth Lakes village.
Wow what a trip you have both had......I need a holiday myself after following your every move. Welcome home and very well done on the organisation of the trip and the consistent updates from all places visited ....we loved it!!. GW
