Egypt
I know I refer to a lot of places we visit as being ‘on the list’. But if we were to talk true bucket list destinations then Egypt has to have been at the top of that list. About 3-4 years ago we looked at Egypt and seriously considered going,
Australia
As alluded to in part one of our Central Australia trip post, the second half of our drive underwent a major change. Our original itinerary had us heading to Alice Springs and then further north before turning back east on a scenic journey back to Sydney. However a combination of
Australia
Central Australia is a trip we had talked about forever and the purchase of Fran made us all the more eager to get out there and explore it. Normally we spend our Christmas and New Year in Melbourne with family and friends however with forced leave from work we decided
Singapore
We have been to Singapore numerous times as it makes a great stopover destination on the way back home to Oz, but equally is a fun long weekend kind of place as well. There is so much to see and do there, especially given it’s size. Every time we
Cambodia
Cambodia, and more specifically Angkor Wat, had been on my bucket list for quite some time. I’m not too sure why we didn’t get there earlier but I’m certainly glad we have been there now. Cambodia is an amazing country. From the history and monuments, to the

After being back at work for almost a month we decided to take a long weekend and head to South Australia for some great wine and food! This was our second time in South Australia, more specifically Adelaide and the the Adelaide Hills. We used this trip to revisit some
South Africa
No trip to South Africa is complete with out safari! There are lots of great national parks in South Africa, some run by SAN Parks, some private reserves; probably the most famous though is Kruger National Park. We drove to Kruger from Johannesburg Airport, heading for the Paul Kruger gate
South Africa
Stellenbosch Stellenbosch is a beautiful town located 45 minutes from Cape Town and surrounded by the vineyards of the Cape Winelands. The town architecture is a reminder of South Africa’s Dutch colonial history with white painted buildings and timber edgings, the streets lined with large oak trees and filled
