Warwick Disappointingly it was still raining the next morning so we took our time over breakfast and slowly packed up our caravan. We refueled and drove into the town, passing a lovely old stone church on the way. We had arranged to meet up with a third cousin of mine for lunch. Her Dad and …

Well, it's finally about to happen, we are heading off soon to Europe again. Back in 2019 we booked a trip to Europe but due to two years of Covid lockdowns in greater Melbourne and a few family events, good and bad, we haven't managed to leave Australia since. What will we be doing and …

Victoria’s Silo Art Trail, part 2

On July 19, 2023 By Born to TravelIn Art, Australia, Photography, Roadtrip, Travel2 Comments

Day 3 Lascelles to Avoca Awoke to a classic Autumn morning, cold with a clear blue sky. Once we had eaten breakfast we packed up the caravan and headed over to take one last look at the silo art in Lascelles. It was tricky to take a good photo because half the silo was basking …

Victoria’s Silo Art Trail

Day 1, Dromana - Stawell Even though we have driven along the North East Silo Art Trail in our home state of Victoria we had never been along the original Silo Art Trail in the Wimmera region. Finally we decided we would do it as a 'shake down' trip before we headed off to Queensland …

Day 3 After a late Sunday breakfast we took another walk. Jay guided us through Crows Nest and Waverton to Waverton Park. We passed a fascinating succulent garden just before we came to the park. Then we followed this path down. At the bottom of the park we came to a good viewpoint across to …

Days 1 and 2 Between Easter and Karen’s birthday we took a quick trip up to Sydney. Back in January I’d secured flights with frequent flyer points during a sale.  We flew up on the Friday afternoon. Our flight had been a morning one but of course QANTAS sent us a message the day before …

Queensland Footy Trip At the end of last year my best mate, Phil, and his wife, Dorothy, retired to the north of Brisbane from Melbourne. They kept asking us when we would come up and visit and see their new house which they had had built in the suburb of Newport. We suggested we would …

Vanuatu – Day 5

Vanuatu – Day 5

Another day, another chance to try something different from the buffet breakfast display at the Ramada resort in Port Vila. After taking our time and enjoying the relaxing view of the Erakor Lagoon we took a leisurely walk along the shore back to our apartment. The rest of the morning we sat and read on […]

Vanuatu – Day 4

Vanuatu – Day 4

A tropical holiday certainly encourages you to slow down, relax and recharge. After another late buffet breakfast we decided to take a reconnaissance walk to a Japanese Restaurant that was within walking distance of the Ramada resort with a view to eating there one night. So after putting hats and sunglasses on we set off. […]

Vanuatu – Day 3

As we had a half day tour booked we were up early, about 7:15, and down to the restaurant for our buffet breakfast by 8:00. That still left us with plenty of time to enjoy lots of the options before getting organised and making our way up in a buggy to reception by about 9:10. […]

Taipei

Taipei

As we drove to Melbourne Airport in my brother’s car we noticed peak hour was just about over. So we arrived in good time to check in just after 7:30pm for our 10:35pm flight direct to Taipei. The flight was about two thirds full and took off a few minutes behind schedule. As late dinner […]

Two Glaciers and a Chilean Ranch

Two Glaciers and a Chilean Ranch

We took an early breakfast and then walked into town to the travel agent’s office. From there we joined a busload of fellow travellers and were bussed out to Puerto Bories. Here we boarded our boat for the day. It wasn’t the most modern but had plenty of tables with seats. We sat down with […]
