Adventures with M

MALTA – 17 October 2026
Christine had stayed at Malta a few years ago and loved the place.  We were booked into one of the “included” trips, but after the last three, we decided that Malta deserved more than a 3 hour walk/drive around town.  So, Christine scoped out the options and booked us into a private tour for just the four of us.  Turned out to be the best decision we’d made over the last five weeks.

MARSEILLE, AJACCIO & ROME – 13-15 October 2026
Forty-nine years ago, I visited San Francisco for the first and last time.  I’d always wanted to see San Francisco and in fact had done a geography school assignment on the city, gathering images from travel brochures I’d found in a travel agency.  So, along with my husband and three-month-old son, David, we landed in for a week’s visit to SF.

BARCELONA – 10-12 October 2026
We had two more trips to go, and by now we’re pretty worn out, it’s been almost four weeks of sightseeing.  By now we’re getting the hang of the language with our greetings of buenos dias, buenas noches, gracias and muchas gracias which I’ve added to my previous repertoire ¿Dónde está tu casa?  Continue reading →

BARCELONA PORT – 12 – 27 October 2026
Back in the 1970s I did a lot of “cruising”, it was really my preferred choice of getting from A to B; Sydney to Port Moresby, Sydney to Auckland, Sydney to Singapore and my favourite Singapore to Hong Kong.  Many years later I enjoyed the wonderful river cruise that I did with Christine, Rhonda and Ray – Budapest to Amsterdam.  So doing a cruise around the Mediterranean sounded wonderful.

BARCELONA, SPAIN – 7-12 October 2026
I have to say, if you were to pick one city in Spain to visit, I’d highly recommend Barcelona. We arrived on Wednesday evening and our luggage arrived on the same flight (although we had packed extra in our hand luggage to ensure we were prepared for loss luggage LOL).  Our accommodation at H10 Catalunya Plaza is amazing, would definitely recommend as it’s right in the old part of town.
