Pre Christmas Sydney trip – Day 4

On January 13, 2026 By Born to TravelIn Australia, Photography, Travel3 Comments

Awoke to another blue sky and a nice view from our apartment's balcony over Lavender Bay. About 11:00 Jay and Kaede met us at our apartment and we went down and across the road to the Kirribilli Market, (which was mostly in Milsons Point.) It was quite hot already as we moved around the stalls. …

Pre Christmas Sydney Trip – Day 3

The next morning we had a slow start to the day, grabbing some food for breakfast at the Milsons Point IGA supermarket. Mid morning Jay arrived at our apartment and we took the bus to Cammeray. The reason for going there was because there is a Harris Farm Markets there and we know they sell …

Pre Christmas Sydney Trip – Day 2

Staying in an apartment meant we could prepare our own breakfast. Once we had finished eating we walked to the nearby Milsons Point station and took a train into Wynyard and swapped onto a circle train to reach St James. I had to collect my mother's will from the Law Courts. It was very busy …

Spring in Sydney – Day 3

On November 13, 2025 By Born to TravelIn Australia, Photography, Travel, Walking2 Comments

After a wonderful walk the previous day and a good night's sleep we planned a more relaxed day before our flight home that evening. So after packing up we took our cases down to Jay and Kaede's apartment in Neutral Bay about 10am. From there it was a short walk back to one of their …

Watsons Bay to Rose Bay walk Once the weekend came Jay and Kaede were free from work to join us for a walk. So after breakfast we walked along Military Road from Cremorne to their apartment in Neutral Bay passing this fabulous Nutcote mural by Tim de Haan and Nikki Parker. We were soon on …

Sydney in Spring – Day 1

On November 4, 2025 By Born to TravelIn Australia, Gardens, Photography, Travel, Walking5 Comments

For our Sydney Spring trip to see our son Jay, and his partner Kaede, we took a late flight up. Not because we wanted to but because we had been stuck in the Domain Tunnel on our way to the airport due to an accident. As a result we were $360 poorer because of paying …

Winter Wanderings – Day 20

Jerilderie to Dromana We awoke to a cold clear day. A quick breakfast and pack up and we were driving through Jerilderie township just after 8:30. Passing the Royal Hotel we had to be quick to notice a grey signboard featuring bushranger Ned Kelly. Hope you can spot it too. To our right was a …

Queensland Roadtrip – Day 77

Brr, it was really cold. The caravan may be insulated and the heater was on but at 4:09 Karen and I were both trying to warm up. We put another doona on the bed and turned up the heater. That soon helped. My weather app told us it was zero and would head down another …

Queensland Roadtrip – Day 76

Having finished breakfast we packed up the caravan and headed off. Our plan was to take the freeways around the western side of Sydney and avoid the worst of the peak hour traffic and it worked well. We had cleared the city and were on our way down the Hume Highway by 10:45. Sydney - …

Vanuatu – Day 7

Vanuatu – Day 7

Now that’s not the sunny tropical weather we were expecting. Rain, rain and more rain during the night and it was still raining when we wanted to go for breakfast so up went the umbrella. We tried just about everything possible from the buffet breakfast that morning. Cereal and fruit with yoghurt followed by an […]

Vanuatu – Day 6

Vanuatu – Day 6

It was a hotter day so we were up a little earlier for another delicious buffet breaky. After breakfast we booked a table for the dinner included in our package. Then we grabbed a daypack and a water bottle and took a minibus from the resort into Port Vila, alighting near the main market. Karen […]

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 […]

Born To Travel Is On The Move

Hello, If you are a new reader I hope you have enjoyed reading about the beginnings of our travels in Taiwan most recently. Or perhaps you have read older posts previously as Karen and I have trained, bussed, driven and walked around Japan, Dubai, Spain, the Galápagos Islands, Colombia, Chilean Patagonia and, of course, Australia […]

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 […]
