2018

Tasch, Switzerland

The Matterhorn, the reason we came to Zermatt.

Our drive from Bonne, France to Tasch, Switzerland was a short 3 hour journey, and while it was short, it was heart stopping in some places as we traveled deeper into the Swiss Alps and traversed some high mountain passes.  Read more →

Bonne, France

Sunset in Bonne.

We arrived in Bonne after a 5 hour drive from Paris.  The journey was relaxing, driving through beautiful French countryside on quiet highways.  Our tolls for this journey totaled Euro 47.60 which we thought was very reasonable for a 5 hour drive, which could have been an 8 hour drive on toll free roads.

The Story behind Dory

Dory at our first stop in Bonne, France.

Many years ago a friend referred to us as “tropical fish” because we lived on a Caribbean Island and our bodies had acclimatized to the heat after so many years away from Canada.  Read more →

Two Pillows and a Blender

This post was inspired by a conversation I had with my cousin in Guildford.  We were discussing our upcoming travel plans and I mentioned with excitement how I could hardly wait until we had our own little car and I could purchase some items.  Read more →

My cousins house with a lovely English garden.

Our overnight flight from Calgary to London was smooth and uneventful.  We had been on pins and needles the week before as we awaited news regarding the possible WestJet pilot strike.  Read more →

Farewell Canada

May 22, 2018October 25, 2024Susan

And we’re off……we have spent the past 3 months in Calgary and it is with anticipation, and some trepidation of the unknown, we begin our travels to unfamiliar places.  It has been an easy start to our home-free life spending 2 months in Florida Read more →

On The Move

April 27, 2018October 25, 2024Susan
On the road to Canmore, Alberta

This past month was another quiet one for us as the weather in Calgary continued to be unseasonable with more snow and low temperatures, not conducive to getting out seeing the city and taking photographs.  Although, it has given us the chance to spend a lot of time with family and friends.  Read more →

Quiet Times in Calgary

March 24, 2018October 25, 2024Susan
More snow…..

We have been in Calgary for a month now and life has been very low key with consequently not much to write about.  It has been cold with above average snowfall since we arrived in late February, a friend suggested it was our punishment for living on a Caribbean Island for the last 15 years 🙂  Read more →
