    ART – seeking silos

    Silo, so high, so far Outdoor art is the art of the 21st century. Graffiti has graduated! The Silo Art Trail that snakes through the wheat belt of Victoria is an inspired outdoor gallery. A couple of hours outside Ballarat and you are on your way. The concept of having the towering (up to 27m), […]

    Nevada USA – vintage all the way

    It couldn’t be further from Las Vegas than from here to the moon. But hey! this hotel is looking very Nevada-ish old-school neon with extra curricular enticement. Before walking through the doors of the historic Hotel Nevada & Gambling Hall I’m stepping on the stars in the footpath. Wayne Newton, Ingrid Bergman, Gary Cooper and […]

  • HAWAII FIVE – UH OH! DO I HAVE ENOUGH SPACE IN MY LUGGAGE?

    HAWAII FIVE – UH OH! DO I HAVE ENOUGH SPACE IN MY LUGGAGE?

    Flying. I always wonder when people complain about their flights. We might sometimes experience late flights, cancelled flights, service not up to par, inedible food, terrible co-passengers . . .but. If you are travelling up the back of the plane you have to suck it up. Just remember, you are contained in a metal tube, […]

    Get outta town – or slow travel on weekends

    SLOW TRAVEL #1 Winter in Australia – all over Australia – is not a hardship. Maybe down south there’s snow and drizzle but rarely does it lock residents in their homes for too long. Now I can only speak from my base that is Sydney, Yeah, Sydney people are pretty much big sissies in the […]

    Tasmanian ancestral home beckons

    It was a dark and stormy night. How often do you get to say that and it’s true? And it was a dark and stormy night as Hobart, the Tasmanian capital was lashed by one of the worst storms in decades. We drove from Freycinet into Hobart as the weather picked up momentum – rain and […]

  • Uluru – for light and love

    About 20 years ago I caught a bus from Alice Springs, a town in the heart of Australia to see what was then called Ayers Rock, the grand monolith that sits in the centre of Australia like an anchor – tied to the ground holding the continent in place. For some reason the area was […]
