The Kayak
(Preview)

Jacobs Ladder
(Preview)
Managed to scare myself silly yesterday by going up Jacobs Ladder on Ben Lomond. Cannot believe this road is access to the ski fields! Single lane, no where to pass - unless on the hairpin, up traffic has to give way to down - so what? - I would have had to BACK down the road!!!! No safety barriers. I do not ha...

Solo travelling
(Preview)
Well made the big leap a week ago and I'm camped at greens. I haven't met so many friendly and helpful people in such a short time before. Just the right balance of me time and chat. I'm glad so far I took the plunge and recommend it to any other solos out there wondering. Cheers

Arrived at Wuruma Dam
(Preview)
Set off from Ban Ban Springs by 7am heading initially for Eidsvold where I wanted to ascertain that the pharmacy there carried the medication needed for my 6 monthy injection for bone density. Hard enough to get to Eidsvold from Wuruma without finding that it is unavailable. Ended up having to get to r...

Ah the serenity
(Preview)
The wind has dropped, the birds have gone to bed and the crickets are chirping. I have a glass of wine and just watched the sunset. The too close neighbour has moved on. Maybe this solo travelling life ain't so bad after all.
