Our Travels

Wish you were here?

Hi, After we left you on Monday afternoon we took a walk from our hotel down to the Tulum ruins on the beach. We didn't have the place to ourselves like at Chichen Itza unfortunately but most of the tour buses had departed. The ruins are of a Mayan...

 

Tahiti

Not the best night’s sleep, as our vast amount of mozzie bites kept us wake. The temperature barely drops at all at night, in fact it feels hotter when it rains – certainly more humid. We woke at about 3.30 feeling really hot and sticky but managed to ...

We arrived in La Paz on Thursday afternoon. It is absolute mayhem here! Buses, taxis, combis and people everywhere. Crossing the road is a challenge in itself. We went to an Asian restaurant for our farewell meal on Thursday night. Having not had a cur...
