Starting Again

A lot has happened to us since our last entry in this blog in April 2008. We have left Shetland after 32 years and moved to the Scottish mainland. Sea Kayak Shetland stayed behind with Angus and Wendy Nicol, so we are both officially retired now. Norma's Mum and Tom's Mum and Dad have all passed on. The grandchildren (still four of them) are growing up fast, but we see a lot more of them since we are so much closer. And we are off on our travels again, so the blog is being resurrected.


On December 27th we fly to Tasmania for three weeks. Then we will travel through Australia - by Melbourne, Adelaide, and Alice Springs to Darwin at the end of January. Next stop is Hanoi, and the Tet (Chinese New Year) holiday, a kayak trip in Halong Bay, then a tour through Vietnam and Cambodia, returning home via Bangkok about the end of February. Not quite as adventurous as three years ago maybe, but bear with us and we'll try to entertain you - and yes the bear will be with us, William that is.
