With just one full day in Singapore, we decided to focus our
attention on the Gardens by the Bay.<o:p></o:p></div>

The MRT transit system is just like the London Underground
but cleaner and quieter. The automated trains (no drivers), run on a continuous
loop between stations and arrive punctually, every 3-5 minutes. There is no gap
between the doors of the train and the doors of the platform, so entry and exit
is seamless and there are a series of cartoon characters to remind you of the
rules – <o:p></o:p></div>

I don’t think I’ve ever felt safer in a city than I do here.
There are signs of the sensible rules everywhere, which seems like overkill but
clearly works because everyone seems to be completely law abiding (if you
ignore pedestrian crossings – no one stops for them). There is no vandalism, no
littering; people don’t push or shove, everything is orderly and calm.<o:p></o:p></div>

Maybe there is a sinister side to Singapore that we haven’t
seen but certainly on the outside it seems like the utopian version of a
dystopian future city.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Extending the futuristic theme, the giant, artificial trees
in the Gardens by the Bay tower over the Marina area. With a skeleton of metal,
the exterior of these beautiful, triffid like structures is covered with plants,
blending technology with nature, almost seamlessly. When you walk through them
on the Skywalk it’s like being part of a scene from Avatar.<o:p></o:p></div>

We spent almost 5 hours in the gardens and the time just
whizzed past. Apart from the beauty of the plants and flowers, the opportunity
to be within the climate controlled interior of the domes was too good to pass
up. Singapore is hot!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Flower Dome is home to species from all over the world.
Taine even spotted some eucalypts and kangaroo paw in the Australian garden. At
the moment they have an orchid display as a central feature; the colours are
truly amazing.<o:p></o:p></div>

The Cloud Forest spirals around a central core of forest
plants that cover every climactic region on the planet, from the Tropics to the
Arctic and it is all self supporting, both in the structure of the plants (no
metal girders etc) and the environment. Part of the continuous evaporation
cycle includes the world’s highest indoor waterfall- it’s truly awe inspiring.<o:p></o:p></div>

Near the gardens is the Marina Bay Sands area where they are
busy erecting a Grand Prix track and spectator stands. This sector is home to
the rich and famous. The shops – Hermes, Dior etc, etc, had more posh looking
attendants than they did customers but maybe they were all in the casino or by
the pool during the afternoon.<o:p></o:p></div>

We took the MRT to the Chinatown markets before going back
to our hotel for a swim and recovery session. We were hoping for some shopping
opportunities but haven’t really seen anything we want to buy. Good quality in
Singapore is very expensive, poor quality is the same price as the junk we get
at home.<o:p></o:p></div>

So enchanted were we with the gardens that we decided to go
back to see the trees lit up at night and thank goodness we did. If they were
spectacular by day, words cannot describe them by night! Solar panels on top of
the trees provide the energy for the nightly light show and it's accompanied by reasonably non intrusive music. After the display you can stroll back through the gardens to the train station or along the walkway to the harbour.<o:p></o:p></div>

I think we discovered the dark side of Singapore today in the form of the crass, gaudy, over priced Sentosa Island. This is one giant theme park with all sorts of activities, mostly ticketed. You even have to pay to enter the island, a bit rich since that's just a preamble to the fleecing you're about to get when you arrive! You're also encouraged to buy 'fun passes', a discounted (apparently), pre selected list of activities that you will do when you get there. We had seen that the Skyline Luge was running on Sentosa. This is the same company that runs the NZ luges at Rotorua and Queenstown so Taine and Geoff were keen to try that. We also chose the Segway tour because, you know, everyone needs to ride a Segway in their life! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I found a bench under a tree to sit and read my book while they luged. After nearly an hour I was starting to wonder if they'd fallen off or maybe the ride was so good they'd gone back up for another. No such luck. Apparently, 'the worst luge track ever' and a 'disgrace to the Skyways name'. Bummer. On to the Segway, where the instructor was busy on his phone. After some wait, he proceeded to 'train' the three of us, all the while keeping his thumbs on the keypad. Geoff asked if they could mind our bags. No, but there was a locker available- minimum price $4. Unfortunately Geoff only had a $10 note and the machine didn't give change. Pity we hadn't kept the bags on our backs because the advertised 'fun ride' on the Segway went for exactly 3 minutes- 400 metres down the road, turn around and back again. Double bummer. </div>

So, hot and bothered and so ripped off by now that we couldn't face the inevitable disappointment of the 3rd activity, we decided to cut our losses and return to the train. As bad luck would have it, just as we arrived they announced that a malfunction had caused the train to stop running and we would have to queue for a shuttle bus. Queue we did and then boarded it with about 3 times as many people as it could possibly be legal to carry, in 32C heat and with no air conditioning. Instead of express like the train, it stopped at every stop where, unbelievably, more people squished in. By the time we got back to Vivo City we were drenched in sweat and close to heat stroke. The coolness of the shopping centre was a welcome relief but because it was Saturday the place was packed and it was virtually impossible to get anything to eat so we decided to collect our luggage and head to the airport (very) early and have dinner there. Having only broken our no taxi rule once on this trip, we used our Ezy cards to get back to the airport on the subway. This was no mean feat with two line changes, four big bags and our backpacks but it only cost $1.72 each so the angst of the Sensota money wasting was somewhat assuaged. </div>

We spent our last full morning in London doing more walking.
Our average everyday has been well over 15K steps and today was no exception.
Regent Park is only a stones’ throw from Camden and provides a picturesque
place to exercise. While Geoff ran round the perimeter of the park, the kids
and I went back to Primrose Hill where they ran up and down the hill and I
people watched. At the top of the hill there’s seating, around which is a quote
from Yeats; “I have conversed with the spiritual sun. I saw him on Primrose
Hill”. On this beautiful morning you can see why Londoners flock here to picnic
at the weekend. It’s like the pinnacle of the city with views out across the
whole cityscape. At mid morning on a working day, there are hundreds of people
in the park but it’s not at all crowded. There are dogs of every shape and size,
making me wonder where they all go when they’re not in the park. Likewise the
nannies, with their accents from every corner of the world, calling to children
who answer in very British accents, joggers, yogis, serious and not so serious
athletes…and tourists, mostly like me, recording the view on their screens,
except for one little girl who was sketching the cityscape perfectly with pencil and paper.<o:p></o:p></div>

The first time we were in London we toured the Globe
Theatre. We fell in love with the dedication to Shakespeare’s theatre design
and vowed to come back in the Summer to see a show in performance. For a couple
of Theatre/Drama teachers, watching Shakespeare performed live at the Globe is
the ultimate and tonight’s performance of “Much Ado About Nothing” did not
disappoint. We had great seats, booked the day the season opened in February,
on the top tier, right at the front. From here we had a fantastic view, not
only of the stage but of the of the city skyline, the moon, jet trails and
planes passing overhead and the rest of the audience, including the groundlings
(people who pay for standing room only in the courtyard). It’s quite a surreal
feeling to be in one of the most greatest cities in the world, sitting in a
theatre built to 16C specifications, watching a play written by someone who
died hundreds of years ago, while the 21C flies above you.<o:p></o:p></div>

This production of “Much Ado About Nothing” was re contexualised
to be set in Mexico and it worked perfectly. The stagecraft was incredible –
the horses were wire sculptures ‘ridden’ by actors on stilts, the back set
provided several levels of entry and exit and the fourth wall breaking was so
effective it nearly ended in the demise of a few groundlings who couldn’t get
out of the way fast enough! It was a visual feast and the addition of some
contemporary music and dance completed the sense of transcended time. I was
worried Taine wouldn’t cope with 3 hrs of Shakespeare but he was as enthralled
as the rest of us.<o:p></o:p></div>

And then it was time to say goodbye to Sophie as well.
Dressed like a turtle, she’s off to Croatia/Switzerland/France/Germany and
other places from the atlas. Such is the price you pay for raising confident,
independent children. It’s been glorious to touch base with her in the middle
of her journey.<o:p></o:p></div>

With nowhere to store our luggage, the easiest thing to do
was go to the airport early, a fairly expensive business because our Oysters
were empty and had to be topped up just to get to the wretched Heathrow
Express. Check in was simple but then our plane was delayed so we had quite a
bit of time to waste the rest of our stirling and to fret about making our
connection in Zurich. The short hop to Switzerland was dreadful. It was very
old plane with lots of people on it, most of whom seemed to be suffering from a
combination of the plague and a twitching disease that caused them to bounce
backwards and forwards in the seat in front of me. I was tempted to use the
rock hard cheese roll snack to disable some of my traveling companions. I had
planned to stock up on Swiss chocolate during our transfer in Zurich but there
was no time for that as we ran (yet again) to make our gate. We boarded with
just minutes to spare, dripping with sweat and looking forward to another 12
hours of close confinement. As it turned out, this was probably our easiest flight;
the service was good and because it was late, we all slept for a few hours.
Having crossed yet another couple of time zones and lost most of Thursday we arrived
in Singapore at 5pm with just enough of the day left to wander through Little
India, eat a delicious meal of chili chicken and peppered beef and fall into a
stupor in our beautifully soft hotel bed.<o:p></o:p></div>

I’d forgotten how much I loved London until we found
ourselves on the street outside the Camden tube station. On a Sunday afternoon
the whole place was a buzzing, bristling microcosym of humanity – people of all
nationalities and walks of life, some so bizarre looking that they could have
come from another planet and yet here they seem perfectly normal. London makes
Melbourne seem suburban.<o:p></o:p></div>

We had an interesting travel day, starting at Dublin airport
where the queue to check in on Aer Lingus stretched out the doors. We thought
we’d given ourselves plenty of time but after almost 90 minutes in the queue we
reached the desk with just 5 minutes to spare before check in closed. Prematurely, we were just laughing with relief when the check in person called
her supervisor over because there was a problem with Geoff’s ticket. He was
sent to another counter to have it investigated where they told him the name (Demanser)
on his ticket didn’t match the name on his passport ( De Manser) and that it
was unlikely he could catch the plane because the check in was closing. He told
them his bag had already been checked (almost true because mine and Taine’s had)
so they gave the ticket the all clear and we did another Amazing Race run for
the boarding gate.<o:p></o:p></div>

The flight to London is a short hop, just 55 minutes but
clearly the whole queue thing had rattled us a bit because we let our guard
down on arrival and got conned by the Heathrow Express spruiker in the baggage claim area who
convinced us that, given how much luggage we were carting, taking the Express into
the city would be a much better option than the Tube. Clearly he knew quite
well (as we should’ve because Sophie had explicitly told us but we hadn’t
listened well enough) that we would still have to get the tube once we got to
the city and that actually, taking the Express would leave us at Paddington (aka
known as “Suckertown”) with two changes <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>to
Camden – for a cost of 22£ each, when we could just as easily have taken the
tube to Piccadilly with one change for 3£. Bloody hell; I hate that,
almost as much as I hate how many times Sophie is going to make ‘express’ jokes
from now on!<o:p></o:p></div>

Our apartment in Camden is almost great. It’s right above
the market, around the corner from Camden Lock and just metres from the train
station. It’s not the 2 bedroom apartment pictured in the advertisement on
Booking.com (that we’ve paid for), it’s a one bed with fold out couch but this
is a good bonding opportunity for Sophie and Taine. The very loud R and B from
the bar next door until 4am in the morning is entertaining and it means we don’t
have to be woken by our neighbours taking their bike down the stairs at 6
because we're still awake! And the sweet, sweet smell of marijuana floating
through the windows definitely covers the smell from the garbage left over from
the market. It’s completely splendid.<o:p></o:p></div>

After a cup of tea to recover from the shock of the express
train rip off and 2 bed that’s actually only one discovery, we hopped on the
tube and went to Embankment to catch up with one of our ex students who is
nannying in London this year. There’s nothing more satisfying than watching
kids grow into confident, adventurous young adults so it was amazing to catch
up with Tayla in her new environment and see how well she’s thriving. We had
Pimms and chicken waffles at the Underbelly Festival on Southbank and then
walked back over the Waterloo Bridge. The view from there at night time is just
spectacular – Tower Bridge, Westminster, The Eye, all visible in the same view
finder.<o:p></o:p></div>

The next morning we took the Sophie Barr walking tour of
Primrose Hill and Regent’s Park on our way to Euston to get the train to Harry
Potter World. The amount of open green space in London is incredible. From
inside the park it’s hard to imagine the breadth of the city outside. We ate lunch
just near the station and Taine was very impressed to find deck chairs set up
for the office workers to watch cricket on a big screen.<o:p></o:p></div>

Last time we visited London we missed out on tickets to Harry
Potter so this time it was one of the first things I booked. When they told us
that the self guided tour could take 3 or 4 hours, I was a bit sceptical but
sure enough, we were so engrossed in the sets, costumes, props and the information
behind them that 3 and 1/2 hours flew past. We had lots of fun dressing up and riding
broomsticks across the green screen (although we drew the line at paying 25£ to have a copy of the photos!), drinking butter beer and eating Bertie
Bott’s. It’s amazing to think that the child actors actually grew up on this set in Leavesden; what an incredible learning environment! My favourite bits were the Great Hall, Diagon Alley and the incredible
model of the Hogwarts that they used to film all the castle scenes. Who knew all that action took place in a really big doll's house. Real magic! </div>

The only down side to the
day came on the way home in McDonalds while Taine was feeding his burger addiction. A man, I
think the manager, approached us in a friendly way because he thought we were Canadian- a simple
mistake given that we’re such nice people- and... Geoff was wearing a shirt with
CANADA on it. We explained that actually we were Australian. This launched him
into sermon about how Australia is the best place on earth (conversation going
well so far) because our government has balls like rural America (our eyebrows
rise) and keeps the muzzies (sp) out so we don’t end up with a whole lot of cappuccinos
(awkward smiles turn to frowns). In fact, he says, his own cousin has been to America
and had his photo taken with the leader of the KKK so he knows what he’s
talking about. Wowsers. (By this stage I have a warning grip on Geoff's arm communicating that a silent stare is the best response) This xenophobic idiot didn’t even have the sense to notice the irony that his own skin was brown, he was born in France and had an Italian accent. Like I
said, London is a microcosym and so of course, some of it is scum but it did upset me that this piece of flotsam saw Australia as a racist haven.<o:p></o:p></div>

Our next destination was Doolin as a base from which to
explore the Cliffs of Moher. We had great plans of hiking the 7km to the cliffs
and taking the bus back or vice versa, but when we got to Doolin the wind was
blowing a gale and even my gung ho travel companions were a bit wary of walking
along the cliff face so we drove to the information centre and used the safety
of the observation barriers to view this amazing piece of nature’s handiwork. I’ve
seen lots of pictures of the Cliffs of Moher but nothing beats seeing them in
person. Like Niagara, the majesty and magnitude of the sheer, 200 metre drop, needs
4D (3D plus the wind!) to be appreciated. Once again, our timing was great
because we didn’t get there till after 6 so all the tour buses had departed and
there were just a few other hardy souls to share the experience with. We spent
about 20 minutes watching the ferocity of the sea and took a lot of fairly disappointing
photos (due to the lack of aforementioned 4D on the camera).<o:p></o:p></div>

Back in Doolin, we sought sustenance at O’Connor’s pub,
where we had a wee wait but not too long to get a table. Geoff had the roast
lamb, Taine had a burger (for a change- he’s averaging 2 a day) Sophie and I
both had the guiness Irish stew, washed down with a bottle of red, followed by cheesecake
and Irish coffee. It was all excellent. At 9.30 a traditional music session
started so we hung around for an hour to tap our toes. We stayed at the Doolin
Inn, an up market backpackers and they had the best continental breakfast we’ve
come across, including berry smoothies and fruit platters.<o:p></o:p></div>

If we’d had longer in Doolin we definitely would have taken the
ferry to the Aran islands. From the harbour it looked like it would be a hair
raising ride on a very angry looking sea. We spent a bit of time ogling the
beautiful knitwear in the craft shops. No doubt if there was any room in our
luggage we would have bought some.<o:p></o:p></div>

Our lunch stop was in Limerick and we used the time to visit
King John’s Castle. A.A Milne’s poem, ‘King John’s Christmas’ was a favourite
of mine as a kid so the idea of seeing his castle was appealing. Turns out King
John never actually visited, let along lived in this castle in Ireland but
nonetheless it was an interesting history lesson and we learnt quite a bit
about sieges and under mining. Now, whenever I feel under mined, I will think
of the poor inhabitants of King John’s Castle.<o:p></o:p></div>

find anywhere suitable. Don’t bother googling ‘things to do in Dromineer’, because
there aren’t any! There’s a great big lake called Lough Durgh but it’s a mighty
way around, certainly too far for us weary travellers on a dinghy grey day. We
checked into our B and B, a very intimate little house. With no space to bring
our cases in and walls thin enough to hear a mouse squeak, we high tailed it
into Nenagh to look at some ruins and find dinner. It was too wet to get out to
look at the ruins but the meal at the Thatched Cottage made up for the lack of
entertainment. Full as googs we opted for an early night.<o:p></o:p></div>

After a fantastic cooked breakfast, we accidentally drove
off without paying the bill. Most of our accommodation has been pre paid so
when we couldn’t find our host when we were leaving, and given that he hadn't mentioned payment at check in, we just assumed he’d use
the credit card details lodged with Booking.com, however an email from them saying we
hadn’t respected the conditions of the agreement (i.e, we’d done a runner)
ensued. Awkward. We’ve spent some time trying to contact the owner to
rectify the mistake this afternoon but so far to no avail. I hope we don’t get black listed by
B and Bs. Geoff will be thrilled ;-)<o:p></o:p></div>

Today was our last full day in Ireland and with an early
flight tomorrow we elected to drive all the way back to the airport. We took a
bit of a deviation to visit Kilkenny for lunch and I’m glad we did. It’s a beautiful
old city with a lovely castle and the most extensive grounds ( open free to the
public) that I’ve ever seen. We had a bit of a wander and then continued the
drive back through County Carlow, with scenery similar to home.<o:p></o:p></div>

When you try to gauge distances using Google Maps, it’s easy
to fall into the trap of equating distance with time. It doesn’t work that way
in Ireland! Unless you travel on the main highways (predictably boring as they
bypass all the towns), travel is slow. The roads, even in towns were designed
for horse and cart width and are bordered by hedges – high, thick ones that you
don’t want to wrangle with in your rental car. It’s virtually impossible to see
what’s coming around the corner or over the rise and I’ve taken to closing my
eyes and holding my breath in each instance so that I don’t make involuntary
shrieks that might distract the driver. Generally, all drivers are very considerate
and one person or the other will pull in tight to the hedgerow to let the other
pass but, as in every country, there are a fair share of hoons who overtake or just
whiz around the bends with no thought for anyone’s safety. As a result of all
of the above, travel is slow. This doesn’t worry us as we are in no rush to get
from place to place, the journey, not the destination being the priority for us
on this trip. <o:p></o:p></div>

As you cross the border there’s nothing to tell you you’re
changing countries, from Northern Ireland to the Republic of Ireland except
that the bunting – a regular feature in most towns and outside many houses,
changes from the Ulster flag accompanied by the Union Jack to the green, white
and orange of the Irish flag, the speed limits are in kms instead of miles and
you suddenly have to pay in Euro rather than Stirling.<o:p></o:p></div>

From Ballycastle we drove down through Derry and Donegal to
our overnight stop at Dromahair. It was here we struck our first issue with
accommodation because, a) the place was hard to find, b) there was no sign of
life when we got there except an elderly man who mistook Geoff for a ‘Jimmy’
(policeman) and got quite agitated believing that he had come to complain about
some kids who were ‘no any of his responsibility’. Thankfully we have Sophie’s
UK phone for such events but when she rang the owners they told her the
apartment wouldn’t be ready for check in till 5pm because the laundry was late!<o:p></o:p></div>

To fill the time we drove back into the closest big town,
Sligo and checked out the Carrowmore Megalithic Cemetery. I usually find
standing stones quite fascinating but at the end of a long day, and at 13 Euro,
we were struggling to find our zen and this field looked pretty much like any
paddock around Dundonnell at home. The information provided was interesting though and
it is certainly fascinating to know you are looking at evidence of a
civilisation that existed 6000 years ago.<o:p></o:p></div>

Back at Dromahair, still no sign of a check in person meant
another phone call to be advised that someone would come and let us in
immediately. Immediately in this case turned out to be 20 minutes, so it was
nearly 7 by the time we were settled. Given that the check out next morning was
9, the price seemed a little excessive for a 14 hr stay! To add insult to injury, there
was no wifi (even though it was advertised) and no toaster. One of our travel
issues is avoiding Taine’s ‘hangriness’ (getting angry because you’re hungry)

bit like the Scottish Highlands meets the Otway Forest by the sea!<o:p></o:p></div>

The paddocks were dotted with black faced sheep (who cross

Clifden is the hub of the Connemara and like all other

Tom Barry House apartments. It’s a penthouse because it’s at the top of the
building, up 66 stairs from the ground, above a bookmaker’s shop! We even have
a little decking outside the lounge window. Unfortunately this is a shared
decking and has public access so anyone who wants to sit up there looks
straight in our windows but so far no one has so it’s a lovely little kingdom
at the top of the town. And it has a toaster. And wifi!<o:p></o:p></div>

We used the 2 night layover opportunity to have a bit of a
sleep in and then took a drive around the Sky Road with a view to hiring bikes
and going back around it later in the day. The Sky Road is beautiful with
expansive views out over the coastline. Despite its close proximity to the
town, this is a quiet and laid back countryside, punctuated by little farms,
lots of Connemarra ponies, tiny harbours and the odd B and B. I’m not sure the

We’d packed a picnic lunch so we drove out to the National Park
looking for a nice walk to get our steps up for the day. Geoff spotted a
mountain (it was called a Diamond Hill, but I know a mountain when I see one) and
discovered on his Maps.me that it was only a 3km walk away. I hate climbing
things but holidays are all about family bonding and the sun was shining so I
agreed to walk the base track and maybe wait for them to do the climb. Of
course, one base track led to another and there were small children
gallivanting on in front of me so on I tramped until suddenly we were committed
to the one way track to the summit. With Geoff physically dragging me up the steep bits
and the kids making encouraging noises I managed to make it to the top, only
truly losing the plot when the uneven stone steps became an actual rock climb
and the wind threatened to pick me up and throw me over the edge.<o:p></o:p></div>

The fun really began as we started our descent and the
weather turned from sunny to wild and windy to sleet followed by rain so heavy
that no one could see, especially not the old lady wearing glasses. Sophie got
the giggles as I crawled sideways, blind and Gollum like, down the steepest
bits, clinging to Geoff’s hand in the hope he might be able to drag me back up
if I fell. Keeping in mind that I managed to fall flat on my face walking down
the street in Montreal, falling off the mountain was a definite possibility!<o:p></o:p></div>

Completely soaked, we finally made it to the base track and
so desperate was I to get back to cover (and the toilet) that I broke into a
jog for the last bit. I sincerely hope I am able to walk well enough tomorrow
to get down the 66 steps to the car. I may need to be removed with a crane.<o:p></o:p></div>

We dined on a scrumptious Ulster breakfast (eggs, bacon,
black pudding, sausage, potato bread and mushrooms) at the guesthouse and then
tried to beat some of the crowds to the highlighted tourist spots of NI. We
were almost successful at the Dark Hedges (as featured in Game of Thrones). We
parked at the Dark Hedges hotel car park (very nice of them to allow this and a
considerate tourist thing for everyone to do so you don’t mess up other people’s
photos with your car) and walked the 500 metres or so to the road. I managed to
take two clear shots of the hedges with no one else in them and then suddenly
we were swamped by other people on the same mission. Unfortunately, most of
them just parked their cars on the side of the Dark Hedge road, making it
impossible for anyone to get a sense of the mysterious atmosphere.</div>

We weren’t quite early enough at Carrick-a-rede rope bridge.
The ticket box had just opened but the car park was already full and the path
to the bridge was reminiscent of the hordes at Niagara Falls. The bridge spans
a little gorge between the mainland and a rocky outcrop. It’s a loooong way
down but the bridge is steady and they only allow 8 people on it at a time so I
managed it quite easily. On the other side, the views are spectacular,
especially on a gorgeous day like this but the edges are unfenced and the drop
is sheer. The terror of watching everyone get as close as possible for the perfect
photo gave me a panic attack so I had to sit and do some mindfulness exercises!<o:p></o:p></div>

From there we went to the Giant’s Causeway and that’s when
the desire to see the natural wonders of the world on a sunny Sunday in Summer
got bat shit crazy. The carpark looked like the MCG on grand final day, as
every tour bus and international school camp in NI and about ten thousand locals
vied for a chance to pay 10 pound, (about $18 each), to step foot on the
ancient, tessellated rocks. This was too much for us Aussies (not bad grammar,
just an appropriate line from Spamalot) so we retreated to try again at a
later, or earlier time. <o:p></o:p></div>

Portrush is the epicentre of the beach towns along the
northern coast. We’d planned to have lunch there but it too was wall to wall
cars along the beach front, the harbour and the street. There were numerous
amusement arcades and a giant mobile home park. In the public toilets there
were several teenage girls changing into bikinis, applying 57 layers of makeup
and creating cocktails with vodka in their drink bottles! We parked down the
far end and did a bit of people watching, decided we were very glad we were
staying in Ballycastle and took off again, back through Coleraine and the Dark
Hedge road (bumper to bumper by this time). Ballycastle was busy too but in a
pleasant, country village way, with a hurling tournament and a market by the
beach. The runners (everyone but me) did their exercise thing and I strolled
through the market and down the beach.<o:p></o:p></div>

For dinner we packed a picnic with ingredients from Tesco
and headed back to the Giant’s Causeway. This time we avoided the Information
Centre altogether and, quite legally, took the red trail (extreme cliff
climb!), at no cost, to the causeway. Our picnic spot at Saguenay Fjord last
week was a definite winner for lunch but this is a new contender for best dinner
venue. I doubt there are many days in NI where you can comfortably walk across
the causeway in your shorts and t shirt at 9.30pm, but this was one of them. It
was absolutely stunning.<o:p></o:p></div>

The Giant’s Causeway stretches out and up like a 3D version of
Hexa. It’s pretty hard to believe that these stones aren’t man made; there are
thousands of perfect hexagons in different sized stacks, reaching out into the
sea. To make it even more perfect, the sun was beginning to set and we were
sharing this amazing vision with only a handful of other people. Don’t get me
wrong- I think it’s wonderful that so many people are travelling the world but
like my fantasy of first class air travel, I just wish they weren’t all doing
it at the same time as me so the decision to wait till the evening to visit
will go down as one of the best decisions of this trip. Turns out the blue
trail (moderate, no steps path) is also accessible without an official ticket,
so we returned to the car that way.<o:p></o:p></div>

See if you can find out something for us to do in the Connemarra area tomorrow and maybe somewhere to stop off on the </span><span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;">trip to the cliffs and then back to Dublin ;-)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif;">Also, if the kids are reading - it is not usually OK to use swear words on a public blog. The term 'bat shit' is vernacular (look it up the word vernacular and add to your glossary) and just because I used it doesn't mean you should!</span>Anne De Manserhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04421025018738546599noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864483517885759860.post-72936120154230030372017-07-22T23:36:00.001-07:002017-08-09T02:24:21.244-07:00Belfast to Ballycastle<div class="MsoNormal">
I was right to worry about the traffic noise last night. Combined with
a lack of curtains in the apartment, we all found it a bit hard to sleep. Geoff
& Sophie got up and went for a run around the Titanic Quarter then we made
our own breakfast (courtesy of Lidls) and headed to the Titanic Belfast
exhibit.</div>

This is a very popular exhibit and there were already a lot
of people, including several school excursion groups there when we arrived.
This forced me to put on my school teacher voice a couple of times- much to the
horror of my own children. The exhibit covers 7 floors, with information not
only about the Titanic but ship building in general, and particularly, in
Belfast. Some of it is a bit tedious but all in all we enjoyed it enough to spend
nearly 3 hours examining the displays. <o:p></o:p></div>

There’s lots of symbolism built into the design of the
building, with each feature paying tribute to different elements of the
Titanic, from the span of the façade matching the width of the ship, to the
morse code patterned lines on the path outside. My favourite part was reading
the testimony of the survivors and the information dispelling some of the movie
myths about the sinking. Given that some of my students are basing their Drama
solos on one of the survivors, it was also good research material.<o:p></o:p></div>

As luck would have it, the ticket seller at Titanic Belfast
was from Ballycastle, our next destination. He gave us a copy of his suggested
route along what he called the Causeway Coastal Tour, dedicated to his dad who
had coined the phrase back in the 60s. All he asked was that we visit the bench
named in honour of his dad on the Ballycastle foreshore, take a photo and send
it to him. I love the interesting and helpful people you meet while traveling!<o:p></o:p></div>

By the time we hit the road it was after 1 and unfortunately
it was raining pretty hard so the magnificence of the coastal road was a little
bit muted into a solid sheet of grey sky meets grey sea with no discernible horizon
and we couldn’t get out of the car. Nevertheless it was majestic and I’d love
to drive that way again when there was a touch of blue in the sky.<o:p></o:p></div>

From Casheldun we took the scenic (and incredibly skinny)
Torr road. No need to spend money on fairground roller coasters- here was one
for free. Up, up, up, then around and down, down, down- repeat. All done on a
road just barely wide enough for two small vehicles to pass one another on the
straight stretches and a sheer drop on one side to the sea many, many, many
metres below. It was a crazily beautiful drive, even in the rain.<o:p></o:p></div>

enough for us to climb to the top for a view across (what I thought was the Mull of Kintyre to
Scotland) Fair Head to Rathlin Island. <o:p></o:p></div>

Another big win with the accommodation awaited us at
Ballycastle. At the An Caislean guesthouse we have been upgraded to a little
family suite; two separate bedrooms, a bathroom and vestibule. Up on the top
floor of the beautiful Victorian building we have a lovely view down towards
the sea. <o:p></o:p></div>

Taine was running low on fuel so we walked to the sea front
in search of a snack and then took our ice creams for a stroll around the
harbour. There were some hardy Irish families swimming at the beach (it was 14
C), people playing tennis on some lovely grass courts and lots of fishing boats
coming in with their day’s catch. Altogether a very pretty vista. We stopped
long enough to take a photo on Jack O’Kane’s bench and to skip a few stones
across the river mouth and by then it was time to search for dinner.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;">We’d been given a few suggestions from the
B&B and another one from my geography class at home (thanks Liam) but they
were all chockers except for the Diamond Hotel who luckily had just one table
for 4 left. We’ve had terribly bad luck on this trip with fish and chips but
ever the optimists, we all ordered the cod and sweet potato chips. Hallelujah!
The fish was fresh, huge and crisply battered. The accompanying salad was just
enough and the beer was cold. Lucky there are 3 flights of stairs to take the
edge off before bed.</span><!--EndFragment-->

I’m not sure about Dublin. We’ve just come from the pleasantest
(sp) place on Earth and it’s been raining since we got here so that makes it
hard to be objective. I love the Irish accent- everything sounds like a song. I
don’t like the amount of rubbish in the street or the number of blazed people
we’ve seen on the tram or down by the Liffey. I love the architecture and the
history and the music coming from every pub. I don’t like the second hand smoke
or the price of bottled water. It feels a little bit edgy, like Glasgow but it’s
very walkable and that’s bonus. I wish we had longer here to truly explore.<o:p></o:p></div>

Our hostel is actually amazing. When I told them Sophie
would be staying with us tonight so I could pay for the extra person I was told
the charge was by the room, not the number of bodies. When we went down for
breakfast this morning it was like stepping into 1940. Flowered tablecloths,
baskets of bread and little jugs of (warm) milk on the table. The place is central and close to transport. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for affordable accommodation in Dublin<o:p></o:p></div>

I guess 24 hrs without sleep has some benefits. Despite
being right by the road, we slept like lambs in our tiny room and the next morning
we were ready to tackle our only full day in Dublin. The Guinness Storehouse
was in walking distance so we headed there for the 10am tour. The building and
the business is an iconic part of Dublin and they've done a great job in
promoting it through this tourist attraction. Over 7 floors you can learn about
the production of guinness, the history of the company (the founder signed a
9000 year lease – how’s that for forward planning!), learn how to taste test
the brew, pour your own pint (and drink it) and get a fantastic 360 degree view
of the city. I enjoyed my pint, even if it was a wee bit early to start
drinking. When in Ireland etc…<o:p></o:p></div>

Because Tipperary House is so central we were able to call
back in and recharge our phones and drink some coffee ( to counteract the guinness)
before we left for our tour of Kilmainham Gaol. The gaol is the number 1
tourist attraction in Dublin and they run tours every 15 minutes of every day
and we were lucky to get the only time slot left today at 3pm.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It felt very like the Old Melbourne Gaol- so much sadness
and suffering.There are no happy stories in the history that echoes in every nook and cranny of this building. When the tour ended in the rock smashing yard, where 14 Irish political prisoners were executed by English firing squads, I realised how little I understand about the political uprisings
in Ireland, something I hope to rectify before the end of this holiday.<o:p></o:p></div>

I was really keen to get out of town to the sea at Howth for
lunch but we didn’t have time during the day so we decided to go for dinner. This
involved using our Leap passes to take the tram to Connolly Station and then a
DART train to Howth. Seemed simple. When we got to Connolly we looked at the
board, found the right platform and headed off. As we got close we could see
people running to catch the train so, of course, like lemmings, we ran too, jumping into the
train just as the doors closed. We were busily congratulating ourselves when
another passenger, overhearing our conversation, enquired as to our destination.
Turned out we had jumped onto the wrong train, going in the opposite direction. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Oops! Lucky we had a helpful Irishman! Off the train at the next stop, wait
awhile for a return train, try again to get the right one, finally arrive in
Howth at 8pm; definitely worth the trip because it’s a beautiful spot,
especially at sunset. A restaurant near the station had a Thursday special
offering fish and chips and mushy peas for 10 E. Unfortunately after we’d been
seated and gave our order the server told us they’d run out of fish. Awkward- we
took a tram and 3 trains for fish and chips – probs should have taken the
specials board down! Second choice was across the street at a place boldly claiming to
have Ireland’s best fish and chips. If that's the case, I will not be
eating fish and chips anywhere else on this trip because the fish was bland and
the chips were ordinary. <o:p></o:p></div>

A very late night meant some tired travellers this morning but we managed to get ourselves up and dressed and back to the airport to pick up our rental. Geoff was pretty excited to be driving this one on the 'right' side of the road and we set off for the next destination on our whistle stop tour, Belfast.</div>

We took the long road via Strangford because it's always more interesting than the freeway. We wound our way through pretty little villages and along narrow country, roller coaster roads where you had to breathe in every time you passed another car. This isn't called the Emerald Isle for no reason. The whole place practically glistens with green.</div>

Strangford is Game of Thrones country, with many of the scenes set in the area. I was surprised by the lack of 'cash in'. The only reference we saw was a few tired looking t shirts in the gift shop in Strang(e)ford. There wasn't a lot else to hold us there, so we took the ferry across to Portaferry where we wished we'd stopped instead because they clearly had a festival happening with dress ups and floats but we resisted the urge to join in and kept driving to Belfast. </div>

The worst part of any great trip is the air travel. Being
squished like a sardine for hours on end, shoulder strain from heavy carry on
bags, expensive airport food, dreadful on board food that you eat anyway
because it breaks up the time, the balancing act between staying hydrated and
not having to go to those disgusting toilets too many times, running between
connections or twiddling your thumbs in boarding lounges where there aren’t
enough phone charge ports, arguments about window seats and aisle seats (and
then ending up as the piggy in the middle), not to mention puffy ankles, sore
ears and stuffy noses! Surely someone will invent teleporting soon – I’m afraid
it just won’t be soon enough for me.<o:p></o:p></div>

We filled our last morning in Canada driving back to
Montreal and up Mont Royal, the site of the original First Nations’ city of Hochelaga
and the site where the peace treaty ending 100 years of war between the French/
Hurons and Alonquians and the English/Iroquois was signed in 1701. With its
magnificent vantage point you can see why the Huron chose it as a fortressed
camp. When the first Europeans arrived in 1535, there were more than 200 long
houses within the walls. Again, I was struck by the fact that we were in Quebec
for the 150<sup>th</sup> celebrations and yet clearly there have been
inhabitants of the land here for thousands of years.<o:p></o:p></div>

On a clear day the view from Mont Royal must be magnificent.
This day was very smoggy but the greenery of the parklands surrounding the
citadel made up for the lack of city view. We admired the view, read the
history, wandered in the woods for a bit and then had an iced coffee ( which
turned out to be hot coffee with ice cream in it!) before setting off to the
airport.</div>

We returned our rental unscathed (always a feeling of
relief) and boarded the first leg of our trip to Ireland, a Swiss Air flight to
Zurich. Our seats (pre chosen) were at the back of the plane but in a
configuration of just 3 behind the normal rows of 4 in the middle. This
afforded us some welcome extra leg room, especially for the two on the aisle (not
so much for middle piggy me!). The food was pretty good and there were three
rounds of the drinks cart – always a bonus, but the seats were really hard and
not conducive to sleep at all. Consequently, by the time we reached Zurich it
was 6am and we had been awake since 7 the day before. We were restricted to
gates D for some reason and nothing was open so we couldn’t even waste money on
Swiss chocolate. The 3 hour layover was first world torturous but eventually we
got onto the short hop plane to Dublin and pretty much snored for 90 minutes.</div>

In Dublin the LEAP transport Visitor’s Card gives you 3 days
of travel on buses, trams and trains for 19.50 Euro. This included transport to
and from the airport to the city so was well and truly worth the cost.<o:p></o:p></div>

We’re staying at the cutest hostel you’ve ever seen. Dublin
is a very expensive city and I spent a long time searching for something to fit
our budget. I’m not even sure how I stumbled upon Tipperary House but at 80 E a
night for a room that sleeps 4 and has its own bathroom AND breakfast, pretty
much in the centre of the city, its about a 1/3 of the price of anything else
available. I was a bit dubious but the trip advisor reviews were good and
luckily they were right. Our room is at the very top of the lovely, old
boarding house- up 3 flights of tiny wooden stairs- luckily I had a couple of
strong men to get my luggage up the stairs! We have a double bed and bunks, a
TV and a window that opens. Its only 200 metres to Heuston Station and within
walking distance of the Guiness Storehouse. Who could ask for more?<o:p></o:p></div>

We had a few hours to fill before we left for Saguenay so we
took the car into Wendake, the First Nations reservation of the Huron people in
Quebec City. The reservation itself takes up about 3kmsq and is its own suburb
within the city. Street names are in French and the indigenous language and are
marked in a different colour. Only members of the First Nations and their
families are permitted to live in Wendake. The government owns the land but the
people own the houses and within the reservation no one pays tax. This includes
visitors like us- when we bought fuel and coffee in Wendake, we did not pay the
15% that applies to purchases elsewhere in Quebec.<o:p></o:p></div>

We visited a recreated tourist village and joined an English
speaking tour. The young woman leading the tour was very informative and willing
to answer questions and she provided an excellent overview of the Huron way of
life in the past and in the present. It was interesting for us to contrast this
with what we know of the Maori and Australian Aboriginal cultures. There are many
similarities. Sadly for me, what resonated most was the similarity in the way
our European ancestors decimated the population and destroyed so much of the indigenous
culture with the introduction of disease, guns, religion and alcohol.<o:p></o:p></div>

From Quebec City we drove out to the start of the Parc

Chicoutimi, Saguenay. Over a delicious welcoming meal of roast moose, and with
Flo as the translator, we soon found that we had many things in common. <o:p></o:p></div>

On Friday our hosts had arranged an amazing day for us. We
drove to one side of the Saguenay Fjord, stopping on the way at Nouvelle
France, a movie set turned tourist attraction that showed the way of life of
the First Nations and early European settlers on the river. On such a beautiful
Summer’s day it was hard to imagine the area covered completely in the ice and
snow of Winter, and then having pictured that, it was almost impossible to
imagine how the original inhabitants and settlers might have survived it in
their wooden huts and hide tents. Certainly the beaver skin clothing would have
helped.</div>

At dinner we had an even better view of the ships from a
restaurant overlooking the harbour and then we went to the theatre to watch ‘Fabulouse’
a play about the origins and history of Saguenay. With a cast of more than 100,
this was like an arena play but on a regular (albeit very large)stage. There
were horses and cows and dogs and chickens! During the war sequence, commandos
abseiled into the crowd from the ceiling and when the early settlers threw corn
seeds on the ground, plants sprouted through the floorboards. There were
cannons and fireworks and real water mixed with projections to create floods
and rain and snowstorms. Even though it was all in French and we barely
understood a word, it was epic! Adding to its greatness was the knowledge that
the play has been running for 30 years with adaptations made each year and that
all of the actors are volunteering amateurs, some of whom have appeared in
every show and now share the stage with their children or grandchildren. At the
end they raised the special Saguenay flag and everyone stood to applaud in an
amazing show of community spirit. Fabulouse indeed!<o:p></o:p></div>

On Saturday, another road trip, this time to the other side
of Lac St Jean to the Zoo Sauvage where we had a behind the scenes, close up
and personal tour of the zoo facilities. Zoo Sauvage is like a cross between
Melbourne Zoo and Werribee Zoo set up but only with animals from the Boreal –
upper North America and Arctic Circle. For the most part the animals are free
range and you view them from a safari type vehicle. Within the first few metres
we had our first sighting of an elk, his majestic antlers peeping through the
trees. Then a brown bear ambled across the road in front of us, followed by several
of his friends. Bison lolled around the waterhole and prairie dogs and marmots
(which I have just learnt are woodchucks!) popped their heads up and down out
of holes like a ‘whack a mole’ game. It was pretty cool.<o:p></o:p></div>

On Sunday we all travelled to the family’s cottage by the
shores of Lake St Germaine. This is actually a little slice of paradise and the
most remarkable place to relax and wind down. There are only 22 houses around
this lake so everyone feels like it is their own personal space. The water is
pristine and surrounded by almost virgin forest. When Taine took the controls
of the Seadoo, I thought he might explode with pleasure. As for me, I was
content to sit and watch the changing face of the lake all day long. I didn’t
even notice the absence of wifi! A magnificent dinner of salmon, followed by an
early birthday cake for Taine and wine and firefly spotting around the firepit
concluded a perfect day<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Today we were woken by the loons and an unidentified bird
that sounded like a mockingjay. It meant we were up early enough to watch the
sun come up over the lake and to say goodbye to Florence as she headed back to
uni. It was sad to say goodbye to Saguenay and the Bergerons but I am convinced
we will be back one day.<o:p></o:p></div>

We took the long way back toward Montreal by driving up to
Tadoussac and wending our way through the pretty little towns that border the
St Lawrence on its western side. Just out of Tadoussac we actually saw a wild bear
crossing the road in front of us - the icing on our tourist cake. It was a long
day of driving, made hazardous by a mighty storm that hit us just out of Quebec
City so we were pretty glad to arrive at our hotel in Drummondville, a sort of
nowhere city that will provide a rest break before another big travel day
tomorrow.<o:p></o:p></div>

Canada has been everything and more than we expected. I
imagined lakes and forest but not in my wildest dreams did I imagine how vast
the waterways would be or how dense the woods. It’s a truly beautiful country,
full of courteous and welcoming people. <o:p></o:p></div>

The Montmorency Falls aren’t quite as impressive as Niagara
but they are higher, not as crowded and a little bit easier to access (if you’re
visiting Quebec City).<o:p></o:p></div>

We opted to take the stairs (497 – 34 floors!) rather than
the cable car and although my thighs are screaming tonight, I’m glad we did. It
gave us the opportunity to see the falls from several angles and with all the
rubbish we’ve been eating, the exercise is essential. So, we walked up, across
the swing bridge suspended over the top of the falls – this caused minor
vertigo, but hey, I’m on holidays, and back down again. Luckily the boys
declined the opportunity to zipline across because as we were descending,
someone in the queue slipped over the edge and a full scale rescue was in
action!<o:p></o:p></div>

From Montmorency it was a simple turn onto the bridge to Ile
d’Orleans, a relatively large island in the middle of the St Lawrence. The
island is wall to wall ‘forget me not’ cottages, accompanying boutique
industries and agriculture. The single road around the island is pretty much
bumper to bumper with tourists. We stopped at the Chocolaterie for a lunch
consisting of smoked meat sandwiches, coffee and hot chocolate (made with milk
and a full cup of melted Belgian dark chocolate). The people at the next table
recognised Geoff’s Kiwi accent and got chatting because they’d been to NZ and
loved it. We’ve met someone new every day on this trip- it’s definitely one of
the bonuses of traveling. It’s fascinating to imagine all the different lives
intertwining through their connections with different places.<o:p></o:p></div>

We did almost a circuit of the island. There’s not many
places to park and unfortunately road works prevented us from visiting the
sugar shack – cabana sucre- that I’d had my eye on.<o:p></o:p></div>

Taine hasn’t bought a new cap for at least 24 hours so our
last stop of the day was a shopping mall, Galeries de la Capitale, an unusual
mall in that it had a full scale amusement park inside it, complete with a
roller coaster and ferris wheel. This provided momentary distraction before we
found the ‘Lids’ shop to complete Taine’s set of Quebecois sporting
memorabilia.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Not only is there an amusement park but also an ice skating
rink in the mall and this kept us entertained through an early dinner from the
food court. <o:p></o:p></div>

Being a wine drinker in Quebec requires commitment and
initiative. You can only buy decent alcohol through one outlet, the SAQ and
these are few and far between. Using our offline map.me we navigated to the
closest one only to find them closed at 6pm. Our maps got us to Walmart which
got us free wifi which then showed the closing times of all the SAQ outlets in
the city. Luckily there was a late closer, (almost) on the way back to the
hotel so we dropped in there and I used hand signals with the French speaking
attendant to procure some Yellowtail and a rather interesting Californian red.<o:p></o:p></div>

The streets of the Quebec City Old Town are straight from
the opening scene of Beauty and the Beast. You could be forgiven for believing
that Belle or her father were about to appear at any moment and there’s no
doubt the Beast could be hiding in the Chateau Frotenac!<o:p></o:p></div>

We took the car into town. I have finally got the gist of the
offline maps.me app so finding our way around has suddenly become much easier
and finding an all day park down by the waterfront was not difficult. From
there we walked (and walked, and walked) up through the lower town to the
funicular, an odd little elevator come cable car that takes you to the old
city. There are so many shops to wander around. If I had any room at all in my
luggage I could gladly have spent hours there but it’s really just teasing to
window shop.<o:p></o:p></div>

Quebec City is multi levelled and from the Old City you can
go even higher, up about 300 steps to the promenade around the fortifications
that would have originally protected the city. The view out over the St

The Plains of Abraham spread out in hectares of green fields
at the very top of the city. At this time of year they are home to the Quebec
Music Festival and we saw some of the bands warming up. A few thousand more
steps took us along the Grande-Alee, past the Parliament building, up to St
Louis Gate, then down D’Auteuil to Place d’Youville, along the Cote-de-Fabrique
and up to City Hall and the Basilica through streets full of very old and
beautifully preserved buildings. There were buskers in the square and artists
at work down many of the alley ways. It was like Paris without the Parisians (and
have I mentioned yet how friendly the Quebecois are?).<o:p></o:p></div>

Tonight, a quiet evening of PFK, beer and baseball in our

took last night!)<o:p></o:p></div>

It seemed silly to be so close to the US border and not drop
in for a visit, so we drove the 30 something kms to Stanstead and walked over
into Vermont. Stanstead is a town divided, a bit like Echuca-Moama or
Albury-Wodonga but covering two countries rather than two states.<o:p></o:p></div>

We parked the car on the Canadian side because we were
carrying fruit and didn’t want to rummage through the car to bin it and
proceeded on foot to the ‘frontiere’. Our guide at Niagara had mentioned
several times that Canada and the US have the longest unprotected border in the
world. This checkpoint didn’t feel unprotected. The officers at immigration
were certainly friendly enough but the questioning was rigorous and their guns
were real. <o:p></o:p></div>

After we were ‘processed’ – filled in arrival cards,
fingerprinted, photo ID’ed, paid our $6 fee and issued with temporary green
cards, we walked across the road to a diner, where the change of country became
immediately apparent. A soda bar with 750ml containers for 69c, hot dogs with
queso and cold beer and wine all available at 10am (in Quebec you can only buy
wine at one authorised liquor outlet).<o:p></o:p></div>

We spent a few of the greenbacks we’d saved since 2012,
drank some coffee, ate some hot dogs and read the NY Times before heading back
to the Quebecois side. Re-entry to Canada was a very simple (and predictably
friendlier) procedure. As a bonus, our passports were stamped on both sides.<o:p></o:p></div>

It’s crazy to think how different life can be on either side
of an imaginary line. Different languages, different laws, different currency,
different politics. For other teachers of children’s literature, the whole
exercise reminded me of the Fattypuffs and Thinifers. In between the border
points is a little bridge, several houses and a shared library. The people who
live/work in this no man’s land must live a Jekyll and Hyde existence.<o:p></o:p></div>

From Stanstead we headed toward Quebec City. The fastest
route is via the ‘20’ but we tried an alternate, more scenic road. Our GPS was
slightly confused but slowly and surely we wend our way through the countryside
of greenest farmland you ever saw, punctuated by pitch roofed farmhouses (all
with flower bowls on display) and enormous barns for housing the cows during
the Winter. We thought Asbestos might be a nice place to stop for lunch but it
wasn’t so we kept going until we needed fuel and a quick pitstop at a Walmart.</div>

We had our first bad food experience for dinner. We chose a
chain restaurant called Mikes because it was beside the hotel. Understandably
the menu was in French but poisson et frites sounded safe enough. It turned out
to be two lumps of cod encased in rock hard batter, accompanied by some lettuce
leaves and a couple of onion rings. Along with Taine’s sub (that Subway would
have been ashamed of), a couple of beers, burnt poutine, taxes and the
recommended %15 tip, the bill was $80! Seriously ripped off. No more fine
dining for us.<o:p></o:p></div>

<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">We stopped
in Magog for our lunch. There was plenty going on- a vintage car show in the
car park, yachting, jet skiing and lots of families picnicking along the banks
of the lake. Given that the water in the designated swimming area of the lake is
waist deep at best and the water is as still as a mill pond, it was quite
amusing for us to see life guards at several points along the edge of the lake.
With no rips and no sharks, it must be a boring job at best. Luckily Taine and
Geoff provided a focal point for the guards by skipping stones in the swimming
area- this resulted in some shrill whistle blowing and strong hand gestures. A
second indiscretion, attempting to swim outside the buoys, resulted in another
bout of whistling and finger wagging. Luckily, they got out then without
risking a third strike. I can only imagine how politely they would have been told
to </span><span lang="FR-CA" style="mso-ansi-language: FR-CA;">‘si retirer</span><span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">’.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

was still warm but raining when we woke up this morning- great, heavy drops accompanied
by lots of rumbling thunder. The backyard of maple trees was awash with green

arrived around 9.30 and we took off on a little road trip around the Eastern
Townships. This area was settled by the English and Irish and that influence is
still really strong in the architecture of the little towns that border the
many lakes and rivers in the area. One of the most startling features is the
many window boxes and other floral displays, evident in all the towns we’ve
visited. They are like a celebration of Summer after the long, cold Winter with
all sorts of colourful blooms carefully tended and displayed along the verandas
and shop fronts.</span><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

Geoff is doing a great job driving in Quebec but it’s not
easy. There’s the whole turn into the traffic the opposite way thing, which is
even worse when you get to a roundabout or a parking bay and then there’s the
constant ‘Arret’ signs, (not to mention the warnings that an Arret is coming
up!) When you get to these you must completely stop the car and then the person
who got to the stop first, gets to go first. It’s simpler than it sounds and
because the Canadians are so polite there’s never an argument but you do have
to be on constant look out for the signs. We were driving back to the Airbnb
this afternoon, practising our French phrases, reminding Geoff about tight
rights and loose lefts and keeping a keen eye out for arrest, when suddenly a
police car with flashing lights pulled in behind us. Since there were no other
cars on the road it was obvious we were the object of his attention so we
dutifully pulled over and wound down the window.<o:p></o:p></div>

insult, the toilet in our hotel room packed it in this morning and wouldn’t
flush. Given that they haven’t managed to find a key for our room in the 3 days
we’ve been here, I don’t hold out much hope of getting a plumber, so it was
lucky we were on our way out of Montreal today.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">We left our
bags at the hotel and walked down to Rue Aylmer to collect our rental. On the
way we came across masses of people dressed just in their undies and completely
covered in red, yellow, blue or purple body paint. Like inquisitive aliens,
they spread out across the city, climbing on statues and stairs and interacting
silently with the public. I’m not sure what or who they were promoting but it
was very cool ‘arte’.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

nothing quite as adrenalin rushing as driving a rented vehicle, on the ‘wrong’
side of the road in a country whose signs are written in a language other than
the one with which you are familiar! Luckily the lovely man at Hertz (we haven’t
met an unlovely Canadian yet) upgraded our vehicle to one with an inbuilt GPS,
and with Taine & I chanting ,‘righty tighty’ or lefty loosey’ at every
intersection we made our way safely out of the city.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">A few years
ago we were lucky enough to ‘inherit’ an exchange student and so the motivation
for our trip to Canada was to catch up with her. Thanks to social media we’ve
been able to keep in contact, but seeing her in person and having us all in the
same face to face space was awesome. As with all good friends, we just took up
where we’d left off and it was as if the time apart had never happened (except
that Taine now looks like a giant beside his Quebecois sister!). Florence
cooked us a local pasta dish for dinner and we practised our Fringlish together.
Montreal is a truly bilingual city. Every sign is written in French and English
and every person in every shop seemed to be able to switch effortlessly from
one language to another, sometimes in mid sentence. Provincial Quebec however, is
solely French so we will be dependent on our interpreter for assistance!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-AU" style="background: white; color: #323232; font-family: "Helvetica",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">After the excitement of Niagara Falls, Wednesday’s train ride to
Montreal was very tame by comparison.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="background: white; color: #323232; font-family: "Helvetica",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">We caught a trolley car (identical to a Melbourne tram but newer) to
Union Station. For anyone else visiting Toronto, the trolley was simple as long
as you had the exact change - $3.25<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="background: white; color: #323232; font-family: "Helvetica",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">The VIA train was also easy to catch. The only close hiccup was when
they weighed our bags. Mine seems to have suddenly put on weight even though we’ve
only been here 3 days! Might have to go on a shopping diet for the rest of the
trip. Luckily, it was exactly the 50lbs allowed – I claim this as a superior
packing effort!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="background: white; color: #323232; font-family: "Helvetica",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">We shared the carriage with a group of four, vacuous, early 30 somethings who
talked, non stop, very loudly, about absolutely nothing of any consequence, for
the entire 5 hours from Toronto to Montreal. To complete their stereotype, I
sincerely hope they were American.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="background: white; color: #323232; font-family: "Helvetica",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;">Having set a precedent in Toronto, there was no question of a taxi from
the station. With our screen captured map in hand we hoofed it through the city
to our hotel. So far I am two for two on satirical hotel names. The Super 8 was
anything but Super and the Comfort Suites is neither comfortable or a suite.
Unfortunately a pervious valued customer had spilt water on the card machine so
we have no room key but have to wait for someone from reception to come with us
every time we want to enter our room. And the promised air conditioning is
really more of a boxed in fan, circulating the hot air of Montreal’s warmest
summer day around the room. Still, we’re in Canada and that trumps any minor
inconvenience.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

I was keen to see some of the
Montreal Jazz Festival - until we got there. It was only when I was hot and
bothered and totally exhausted that I remembered I don’t like crowds of people
or expensive beer and I actually don’t like jazz.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="background: white; color: #323232; font-family: "Helvetica",sans-serif; mso-ansi-language: EN-AU; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB;"><br /></span></div>

Taine was most impressed (that it was an IGA) and so was I…they had six packs
of cold beer for the same price as one cup at the jazz festival. We also found
a park with squirrels. Free entertainment.</span></div>

Comfort Suites redeemed themselves somewhat by including bacon in their
breakfast bar and a bowl of fruit available to take away for snacks. We walked
down to the closest Metro and bought a day ticket each for $10, an excellent
deal.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

per bike per day. This is such an excellent way to move quickly around the quieter
streets of the city and, like Toronto, there are plenty of designated bike
lanes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

and lots of lovely old buildings. Having survived the bike riding, I managed to
trip on the pavement and fall flat on my face (and knees). Luckily there was no
real damage and plenty of lovely Quebecois to fuss over me and check that I was
ok.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Olympics were held. This area is kind of under construction as they attempt to
bring the stadium and surrounds back to its former glory. You can tell that it
must have been state of the art 40 years ago but now it’s a bit of a white
elephant. There’s a crazy, leaning tower beside the stadium that was designed
for the Olympics but not finished until 1985. You get to the top via a
funicular type elevator. I guess they’re still trying to make up the 40 yr debt
because it was a very pricey exercise – we decided we’d get the same view from
the plane so we grabbed some more bikes, meandered around the park and
botanical gardens area and then hopped back on the subway to Ile Saint Helene.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

There were
lots of signs to promising activities but nothing actually open that we could
see, apart from the golf course and a giant mesh dome. The dome, called a
biosphere, looked intriguing, so we went there. Taine conned us into forking
over $30 to enter because it looked vaguely educational. It wasn’t. And it had
interactive games. It didn’t. The people running it were lovely but it was
seriously boring. If you come to Montreal, don’t go there.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

is very hot (and did I mention our air con is useless?).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">I don’t really
have a travel bucket list. I want to go everywhere and see everything but if I
did have a list then Niagara Falls would be on it. When we were in New York we
toyed with the idea of a day trip but it was too cold and too far. I’m glad we
didn’t go then because if we had then we mightn’t have gone today and I think
it’s safe to say that the view from the Canadian side must be superior to the
view from the US.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">We booked
our tour from Australia, based on TA reviews. We had to meet the bus in town and
we still had an hour on our bike share so we were confident of making the 8am
departure. Unfortunately, there were only two bikes on the rack when we got
there so Geoff had to walk. It’s a good thing he’s a fast walker!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">The trip to
Niagara was interesting. The driver was knowledgeable and so we learnt quite a
bit about Canadian history and to break up the trip, (140kms) we made a few
stops. I’m not entirely sure of the reason behind some of the stops but I
imagine the tourist network is a closely linked organisation. It did remind me
a bit of our trip to the Cuchi tunnels in Vietnam – we’ll just stop at my
brother’s cousin’s sister in laws café for a snack in case we can’t find food
later! The first stop was at Niagara on the Lake, a picturesque little
retirement/tourist mecca, reminiscent of Hahndorf, with nicely restored
colonial buildings and a magnificent view out over Lake Ontario to the United
States on the other shore. It was here that much of the battle for Canadian
territory between England and America took place.</span></div>

fairies (ok, I made up the fairy bit). Anyway, it’s very expensive because each
grape only yields a tiny drop. Either 11 am is too early for me to taste wine
or someone is having me on because I’d rather scull a glass of maple syrup than
that stuff.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">We also stopped at what is purported to be the largest floral clock in the world. I think the Melbourne City Council might choose to disagree but it did provide an option for a toilet break. Eventually
we made it to our destination, Niagara. Maybe it was the ice wine but somehow
Geoff convinced me that a helicopter flight over the falls would be a great way
to see the big picture. He was right! I nearly wet my pants as the chopper took
off (I blame the wine drinking again) but after that I was too mesmerised by
the view to be scared.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Back on the
ground we tried another vantage point, this time on the Hornblower boat to the
base of the falls. Any other time a boat ride with a hundred other sardines in
pink plastic ponchos would seem absurd, but the company was irrelevant. To top it off, we walked the length of the bank to see the display from yet another angle. On July
4<sup>th</sup>, Niagara is crawling with people on both sides of the river
border and the banks are littered with outrageous, gaudy attractions. I never
fail to be bemused by the extent to which humans can take a natural resource of
such beauty and turn it into a carnival – but remarkably, none of this takes
away the majesty of the falls. It is simply awe inspiring.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

some tried and tested strategies for warding off jet lag<o:p></o:p></span></div>

your destination. This is the most important one. We did let Taine have a
little nap on the plane because it’s entertaining to kiss him and take
ridiculous photos of him with his jaw hanging open but apart from that, NO
SLEEPING.</span></li>
<li><span lang="EN-AU" style="font-family: "symbol"; text-indent: -18pt;">·<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal;"> </span></span><span lang="EN-AU" style="text-indent: -18pt;">Eat whatever is offered to you as
well as the M & Ms and Pringles stashed in your carry on ( it passes some
time, you don’t feel so ripped off about the airfares and I’m sure there’s a
valid medical reason about blood sugar or something)</span></li>
<li><span lang="EN-AU" style="font-family: "symbol"; text-indent: -18pt;">·<span style="font-family: "times new roman"; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal;"> </span></span><span lang="EN-AU" style="text-indent: -18pt;">Drink lots of water. My rule is
double water to every alcoholic or caffeine beverage. Yes, that’s a lot of
water. Yes, I had to go to the toilet a lot – that’s also good because it means
you have to move your legs and you’re less likely to die from a DVT.</span></li>

off the plane.</span></li>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">So far,
these strategies seem to have done the job. We all slept from 9.30pm till
around 5 this morning and woke up feeling pretty good.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">It’s the
Canada Day public holiday here today so the streets were pretty much deserted
when we left the hotel after our North American style breakfast of waffles and
bagels. With no real plan in mind we set off to explore the city, first on foot
and then via the magnificent Toronto bike share program. We thought about the Hop on, hop off bus but it was over $100, whereas the bikes were $7 each for 24 hours! No contest. We’ve used bike share
in a few cities but I reckon this is the best serviced with bike banks every
few blocks. There’s an awesome, dedicated exercise path along the waterfront,
bike lanes on most of the major roads and a population tolerant of old ladies
riding on the pavement when the traffic gets too hairy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Our first
stop was the water front area. It was a picture perfect day for sightseeing and
the harbour looked lovely – apart from the litter, which seems to be a bit of a
problem here. I’d love to see this space in the Winter when the ponds are
frozen but given how chilly the water was today in mid Summer, I’m not sure I’d
want to partake of any water sports. The big drawcard at the waterfront was a
giant, yellow rubber duck, apparently commissioned at a tax payer cost of $150K
to celebrate the sesquicentenary. Bizarre!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

in the free art gallery where there was an interesting but confronting
exhibition made up of sculptured wooden figures. I’d like to know enough about

on holidays I try to book places that include breakfast and I encourage
everyone to eat well enough to last them through to dinner. That’s probably not
going to work now that we have an unfillable teenager with us and besides, we
stumbled upon a Canadian version of Wholefoods with a hot food buffet bar that
we couldn’t pass up.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">The food
fortified us enough to keep riding, down through the distillery district, up to
the old town and then across to the Toronto Easton Centre, Canada’s answer to
Chadstone. We did a wee bit of shopping as a reward for packing lightly ;-)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">The degree
of difficulty associated with bike riding is doubled by the fact that the
traffic comes from a different direction for us. We were constantly screaming ‘look
right’ as Taine gung hoed his way through the city but eventually we made it
back to Chinatown in one piece. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">The
architecture in the city is pretty boring, very rectangular and industrial
except for parts of the old city and some of the side streets in Chinatown
where remnants of a more creative building period remain. So far the stand out
about Toronto is the warmth and friendliness of its people. Everyone has been
lovely and so obliging, from the shopkeepers to the people in the street who ask
if you need help before you even need it! It feels like a very liveable place.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

ate at Burger’s Priest (I don’t know why the apostrophe is there – either the
priest belongs to the burger or the sign writer got it wrong or the owners’
grammar needs work). I’d read great reviews about it and it was nearby. The
burgers were OK but the fries were cruddy- not a patch on the poutine from last

<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Coming off
the back of arguably the hardest term in the history of teaching, we’ve taken
off in an attempt to make our first complete circumnavigation of the globe.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">In a family
where I am not the organised one and Geoff is OCD about the way the plates are
lined up in the dishwasher, we have an interesting reversal of roles when it
comes to travel planning. Months out I have an itinerary, flights and accommodation
booked, kilometres between stop overs meticulously recorded, a google doc and a
google map with places of interest colour coded and menus of possible
restaurants saved in my bookmarks. Geoff and Taine have a vague idea that we’re
going somewhere in Canada, followed by Ireland. I have separate packing cells
for each type of clothing, pages of notes about each destination and a bag full
of pills and potions for every possible travel illness. Geoff gets up the day
we go, throws 4 pairs of undies, 2 tshirts and his black shorts in a bag and
off we go. Once we get to the airport however, the roles reverse. I hand over
all the plans and my passport and Geoff takes control. I don’t drive, I don’t
barter with shop keepers and, where possible, I don’t carry things.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">We might
have forked out the price of a small (second hand) car in airfares but we are very
frugal travellers at heart so we spent our pre flight night at the Ibis Budget
at the airport. Budget is an accurate description. You couldn’t swing a cat in
the tiny room with 2 single beds under an overhead bunk, reminiscent of the
cabin on the Spirit of Tasmania.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Luckily on
our trek to the airport at 3.30 am we came across some abandoned trolleys
outside Maccas. Clearly other budget travellers had passed this way before.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">We checked
into our Australia – Canada leg at Melbourne domestic. Because all the flights
are on one ticket, despite transferring in Sydney and Vancouver, our bags were
checked all the way through to Toronto. Too easy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">All we had
to do was get on and off the plane at the appropriate times and although 19
hours is an unnaturally long time to sit in a metal tube, at least there
weren’t any tedious airport stop overs.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">We lost
track of the time zone changes but at the end of the (very) long day, we had travelled
17,000 km, seen the sun rise twice over the wing of the plane and travelled
back in time 14 hours.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Luckily the
food on Air Canada was reasonable and the drinks cart passed frequently. Like very
hungry caterpillars we ate our way through 3 breakfasts, a lunch, a dinner, 3
rounds of bourbon, 2 bottles of wine, copious coffee and the entire contents of
the snack cart that they store near the rear toilets.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">No one
really slept and we arrived in Toronto exactly 24 hours after taking off from
Melbourne with that dazed and foggy feeling that only new mothers and long
distance travellers can understand. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">Still
feeling the burn of being ripped off by a taxi driver in Paris a couple of
years ago, we opted for the UP Express train to the city. This was a great deal
at $25 for a family ticket. The train deposited us at Union station, right
beside the Rogers Centre where the fans were just spilling out after a Blue
Jays game. It felt a bit like landing on the set of an American movie –
hundreds of people in blue and white baseball gear, hot dog stalls on the
sidewalk etc. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">On the map,
it didn’t look all that far to our hotel in Chinatown so we set off walking.
Some nice Canadians took pity on our puzzled map studying and offered
directions. They said it probably was a bit far to walk but of course that just
added to the challenge! Given we’d left home in 3C, the sunny 28C was a tad
warm but at least the exercise helped level out the melatonin and by the time
we got to the Downtown Super 8 (super being quite a strong superlative in this
case) we were wide awake.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-AU" style="mso-ansi-language: EN-AU;">There’s an
abundance of fast food in Chinatown. We settled on ‘Franks’, a hamburger and
hot dog joint where we had our first encounter with poutine. Poutine is like
Clarke’s chips with cheese & gravy on steroids. Our fries were covered in
gravy, pulled pork, onions, tomatoes, cheese curds – and an egg! Definitely
near the top of the list of best things ever eaten.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 11px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Sometimes
the best travel experiences are right under our nose.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 11px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">This week
we spent a few glorious days camping with friends in the Grampians, a trip that entailed
towing our caravan just an hour and a half up the road.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 11px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">I’ve been
to the Grampians lots of times; on school trips, sporting break ups and the odd
wild camping trip to Jimmy’s Creek in my youth but we’ve never really explored
the area before.</span></span></div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 11px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">We stayed
at the Hall’s Gap Lakeside Tourist Park. This park has earned itself a number 1
rating on Trip Advisor and deservedly so. The park butts up against the Lake
Bellfield dam on one side, the national park at the back and a huge, cleared
area on the other side. The camping area is quite compact, giving it a very
convivial, almost carnival atmosphere. There’s a variety of cabins, huts and ‘glamping’
tents around the perimeter and powered sites in the middle. Our site was down
the back in Kangaroo Lane and it was huge. We easily fitted the van, annexe ,
gazebo, car and Taine’s tent and still had room for a huge fire pit that we
rented for $10 for the duration of our visit. </span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0px 0px 11px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">The firepits are a great drawcard
and certainly add to the cheery feel of the park. In the morning and the
evening the cool mountain air is easily counteracted by the many camp fires.
Along with the firepits, the park has a fire heated swimming pool. It’s pretty
small but very popular and the fact that someone has to get up at 4.30 every
morning to heat the water is testament to the management’s focus on family
amenities. </span></span></div>

<div style="margin: 0px 0px 11px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">There are also dozens of trampolines, a basketball court and a fully
equipped camp kitchen (complete with its own open fire). Add to this the
individual webers at each cabin and a delightful ice cream seller who circles
the camp on her bicycle each night and you have a resort experience for a
caravan park price. As an added bonus, the place is brimming with wildlife – to
the extent that you must remember to close the annexe door or be confronted
with a very large kangaroo sharing your accommodation in the night!</span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">We were
blessed with magnificent Autumn weather , perfect for walking. Given our
location, it was easy to take a stroll along the Bellfield Dam wall on the
first evening. Lake Bellfield is a man made water way and the 800 metre wall
provides great views of the lake itself and the mountains. It also provides a great
swimming spot to cool off in this late Summer warmth.</span></span><br />

<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">On Monday
we tackled The Pinnacle, a rocky spur on one of the mountains overlooking Hall’s
Gap. Unfortunately, I hadn’t done my homework well enough. There are a couple
of different starting points for tackling the Pinnacle and we chose the
Wonderland carpark base rather than the easier Sundial base. Nevertheless, we
all made it to the top, despite the screaming of my calves. The view from the
top was definitely worth the exertion of the climb and I will save the Sundial path
for my next visit. </span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">One of the
best things about walking is that once you’ve finished you feel justified in
treating yourself to something yummy to eat so we went to the little shopping
hub in town for a pie from the bakery and an ice cream. The pie was OK, the ice
cream was excellent. Shopping in Hall’s Gap, or should I say, the lack of
shopping opportunities, confuses me. With so many tourists passing through, it
feels like an opportunity waiting to happen. As it is, apart from the ice
cream, there’s just a lot of REALLY bad souvenirs. In one shop they even sell
Golliwogs, a whole shelf of them. I find this particularly strange in an
ancient place that is also home to Brambuck, the aboriginal cultural centre.
Having stayed in Hall’s Gap before, we packed plenty of provisions from home,
so we didn’t have to fork out too much for essentials at the food store.</span></span><br />
<br />
<div style="margin: 0px 0px 11px;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">On Tuesday
we took a little road trip, through Pomonal to Stawell, the home of Australia’s
richest footrace, the Stawell Gift. In Pomonal we’d hoped to check out the Red
River olive shop, but they were closed. Instead we turned off to Lake Fyans. I
remember this as a much sought after holiday spot when I was a kid, home to fishing
and water skiing. Hordes of very angry looking ants swarming all over the path
discouraged us from getting too close to the water on the north side but we
took a short walk from the boat ramp on the south side to the caravan park.
With the water level very low, the lake presents a pretty barren vista at the
moment but it was certainly a peaceful spot and the few families camping there
looked to be having fun.</span></span></div>

Park in Stawell, the lovely info lady let the kids run the Stawell Gift track,
pretty cool considering the race is only a week away. Geoff had a bit of a look
in the Gift Hall of Fame room. The rest of us read the sign that said it was $5

become over Easter when the athletic carnival is on but it was eerily quiet
this week. At 1pm on Tuesday you could fire a gun up the (aptly named) Main
street and no one would notice. We walked the length and breadth of the town
and hardly saw a soul. There are very impressive public toilets and lots of
shops that sell pretty much everything and anything you might need if you were
to become suddenly stranded in Stawell but Waack’s bakery, at the far end of
town, did not, unfortunately, live up to the hype of its own advertising. The
girl who served us was chewing gum, quite violently, with her mouth open. Given
that my husband suffers from misophonia (rage filled hatred of the sound of
chewing!), this was not a good start. Even though it was only 1.30 pm, most of
the pie selection was missing from the warmer and so our order was filled, bit
by bit, as the pies were individually heated, creating that awkward dining
experience where some of your group are starving, some eating and some bored
while they wait for everyone else. And, you had to pay extra for sauce, even
though we were eating in. I hate that almost as much as I hate the inevitable
sauce stain caused by the rupture of the silly sauce container. I’m pleased to
say though,that my pastie, when it eventually arrived, was excellent, with tiny
cubes of vegies rather than mush. The award winning vanilla slice was ‘meh’.</span></span></div>

not so satisfying lunch, we drove to the top of (also aptly named) Big Hill Rd </span><span style="margin: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;">to a rotunda observation point that provides a
360 view of the surrounding countryside. It was very pretty. We also drove down
to the observation area of the Stawell Gold Mine. Unfortunately there was
nothing to observe except a sign about how the mine is being transformed into
an amazing underground physics lab. Maybe we’ll go back and observe when that’s
completed.</span></span></div>

dinner we drove out to Reed’s Lookout to catch the sun setting over the
Wimmera. It was further than we anticipated and we only just made it in time.
Luckily the lookout is only metres from the car park and a few more metres up a
slight rise takes you to the fire lookout and helipad, where you really feel as
if you are on top of the world, with amazing views out and down. Smoke from
lots of burn offs helped add colour to the sunset so it was just stunning.</span></span><br />

the sunset always deserves a reciprocal sunrise so we dragged ourselves out of

turning off to the right to take us to the other side to Boroka Lookout. Once
again, Mother Nature obliged with a picturesque light show and the view out
across Lake Bellfield, Lake Lonsdale and Lake Fyans was amazing.</span></span><br />

calves still screaming after their work out up and down the Pinnacle, the
thought of climbing anything else was a bit daunting but I love waterfalls and
you can’t really see much of the McKenzie Falls from the top, so down, down,
down I went. This is a very popular walk and there were lots of people on the
same track but that didn’t detract from the beauty of the falls from the
bottom. And after the Pinnacle, McKenzie Falls is a cakewalk, very accessible
to walkers of all fitness levels because, despite the 560 steps down and up,
there is a very sturdy railing all the way to help you.</span></span></div>

another lunch stop at the bakery ( pastie not as good as Waack’s, vanilla slice
better), we were revived enough for a trip to the Hall’s Gap Zoo. I’m not a
great fan of captive animals at anytime and I was a bit tired from the early
start and the Fall’s walk so my attention probably didn’t do the place justice
but honestly, when you are constantly surrounded by ‘wild’ wildlife as you are
in the Grampians, then caged cockatoos and kangaroos don’t really hold much
appeal and the non native animals like the cheetahs and giraffes seem sadly out
of place. We had an amusing interaction with a cassowary and an ostrich, both
of whom identified Geoff as a threatening fellow bird brain and the meerkats
were entertaining as always but I was glad when the others had had enough and
we could get back into town before the ice cream shop closed. I think the zoo
would be a great place with small children or overseas visitors but at $70 for
three of us it wasn’t great value for money.</span></span></div>

cliff face rising up from the creek bed below. As we were settling in for pre

the creek. Next minute they were coo-eeing from the very top! Not to be
outdone, their fathers jumped up and scaled the mountain as well. Although the
walk didn’t feature on our tourist map, it’s clearly a manageable one and an
entertaining way to finish off our break.</span></span></div>

<br />
We were up early for a less than satisfying breakfast before we got on board our mini bus tour to the Cu Chi tunnels. Cu Chi is about 70km from the city (2 hours in the traffic) and there are a number of ways you can get there, ranging from public buses to private cars to speed boats. We went with the mid price option of a 12 seater with a guide. The brochure said our guide would be English speaking but this was a bit of an exaggeration. The words Mr Vanz was speaking were definitely in English but with very few consonants and no pauses between them so we couldn't understand a word he said. This was a shame because he talked all the way to Cu Chi so I'm sure what he was saying would have been interesting.<br />
<br />
On the way we made a pitstop on the side of the road to check out a road side market stall. It took a few minutes to register that they were selling live river rats, snakes and lop eared rabbits. The lack of refrigerated storage means its more sensible to sell the meat 'fresh'.<br />

The Cu Chi Tunnels were built during the Vietnamese war to help the villagers and local guerrilla fighters hide from the US soldiers. They're a network of over 250km of very narrow, underground tubes connected like spider webs to bigger, communal areas providing space for cooking and arms storage. Amidst the maze were decoy tunnels and booby traps designed to outwit the enemy. The tunnels are just another example of the resilience of the Vietnamese people and the way that they just 'get on' with life, despite whatever hardships are facing them. Because they could no longer live above the ground, they went below. They even managed sneak out of the tunnels at night to harvest their crops.<br />

Cu Chi has become a famous tourist attraction so there are thousands of people crowding through the area every day. There are 'workshops' making rubber sandals and rice paper and a shooting range where you can fire off an M16. The area is dotted with mannequins of Viet Cong soldiers and you can buy faux soldier uniforms and aeroplanes made out of beer cans. Because of all this commercialism the site has a bit of a theme park feel to it and so its hard to appreciate that this was actually a war zone, a grave yard, a place where terrible atrocities occurred and many people lost their lives.<br />
At one stage you can climb down into one of the original tunnels and walk/crawl for about 20 metres to the exit. This, at least, gives you an idea of the conditions the Cu Chi people lived in. I bonked my head at least 10 times in the 20 metres and in the middle where it was really dark there was a rising sense of panic until you could see the exit shaft. If you're in HCMC then the tunnels are an historical site worth seeing but you wouldn't come back for a second visit.<br />

On the way back we made another stop at a friend of Mr Vanz so we could buy some Pho (soup) for lunch. At 25000 Dong this was a real bargain, especially if you overlooked the cleanliness or lack thereof , the chickens walking through the restaurant and the squat toilet, sans paper. Cynically, I wonder if some of these tour stops are rigged to be especially colloquial for the tourists (like the faux market shopping we did for our cooking tour in Hoi An) but if it leaves you feeling that you've had a unique Vietnamese experience then I guess it's served its purpose and the family who own the shop have made a few dong.<br />

We got the bus to drop us off at the War Remnants Museum. This is a seriously daunting place. There is nothing done to hide the horror of the Vietnam War here. The pictures and descriptions of the atrocities suffered by the Vietnamese people are explicit, from the French prisons, to the US bombings and torture of Viet Cong sympathisers and the effects of Agent Orange. It's completely overwhelming. We've had a few people tell us that the museum is anti American. I'm not sure it can be anything else. There was no act of aggression fromVietnam that started the war and the devastation caused by the US and their allies is still having an effect here. Any other explanation would be a very inconvenient truth. I felt a great deal of shame and anger that 'my' people could have been involved in such horror and it gave us cause to reflect on the meaning of the word terrorism.<br />

When the galleries got too much for us we retreated to the coffee shop outside and that's when the evening deluge began. We thought we'd be able to wait it out but the museum closed at 5 so we sent Sophie out into the street to purchase us some ponchos (which took about 30 secs because a poncho seller magically appeared as she approached the street) and set off in the pouring rain to walk home via the markets. Somewhere between dodging the motorcycles on the footpath, the thundering rain and the holes in the pavement, we took a wrong turn and got lost. I'm really not sure how we didn't die because crossing roads in Ho Chi Minh is dangerous enough at the best of times, let alone in pelting rain, after dark. In true Amazing Race style, Sophie kept finding friendly locals to ask directions. Unfortunately many of these were conflicting, but eventually we found ourselves outside the Ben Tanh markets - that were just closing for the day!<br />
<br />
Luckily the street food market was still open so we all chose something to share for our last dinner in Vietnam. It shows how far our taste buds have grown that even Taine chose local food and we ended up with a smorgasboard of dumplings, rice pancakes, spring rolls and chilli sauce.<br />

The last few kilometres back to the hotel would have been smooth sailing if we hadn't had to travel through the riverside neighborhood. Maybe the rain and the 12 kilometres previously walked made us a bit complacent but we didn't really notice the changing 'vibe' until two guys on a motorbike mounted the sidewalk and tried to grab Sophie's purse. It was lucky that it was her vice like grip and fast reflexes, not mine, otherwise we would have ended the evening on a very sour note. As it was we were just cross she hadn't had the presence of mind to karate kick him off the bike.<br />
<br />
Sophie says my blogs are ending without a conclusion each day. That's because I get too tired to finish them. I'm writing this one at the bar on the top floor of the hotel with the most magnificent view of this enormous city behind me.<br />

I've never shed tears leaving a hotel before but when the staff from the Rivertown all lined up to have their photo taken with us and then made heart shapes with their hands as our taxi drove away... well, it was like a scene from a 4 star Netflix movie and I wasn't the only one wiping more than sweat from my eyes..<br />

I'm afraid that it doesn't matter where we might stay in the future, nothing will ever match up to the service we had at the Rivertown. We were cared for like treasured guests of the family from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Nothing was too much trouble and within a day of being there, everyone, from the concierge to the breakfast waitresses knew our names and our preferences, especially the front desk 'talent' Nhi, whose friendly conversations taught us so much about the Vietnamese culture and the country.<br />

The staff at the Rivertown were very representative of the Vietnamese people- same, same as us but different. Different in their contentment with life and their constant positivity. Same but different in their commitment to family. I asked Nhi what happens to people when they get too old to work and she looked a bit confused. Their children look after them of course, especially the youngest son of the family, to whom falls the inheritance of the house but also the responsibility of the ageing parents (I made sure Taine was listening to this bit!). If the parents don't have children then their nephews or nieces will take over and all children put part of their wage aside each week to fund the eventual retirement of their parents or childless aunts and uncles. It's not uncommon, as in Nhi's case, for four generations of family to be living together in one house. It was lucky she said, that she gets on well with her three sisters in law. It's not that capitalism is absent in this communist country but the focus is different. It seems people just want to be happy and have enough, there is no real desire to be rich or to have more than you need.<br />

We took our capitalist selves back into Hoi An this morning to pick up Sophie's boots. They still weren't completely right so the shop owner at the Friendly Shoe Shop said she would ship them to Ho Chi Minh tomorrow and Sophie can pay her by Paypal later if she's happy with them. Maybe add completely trusting to the differences between us.<br />
<br />
Shopping out of the way we spent our last hour in Old Town watching a traditional theatre performance. It was all in Vietnamese but good theatre needs no translation and we really enjoyed the dance interpretation of the Old Man and the Fisherwomen. Soph even won a prize in the traditional bingo game.<br />

An almighty thunderstorm hit just as we were leaving the airport, turning the 8km journey into a 90 minute tussle with the traffic and the rain. It was peak hour for the motor cyclists again and you certainly have to admire their tenacity. I was freaked out by the thunder and pelting rain and I was inside a taxi. Like a Formula 1 pitstop, these guys just pull into the kerb, grab their rain ponchos from under the seat and pull out, seamlessly back into the traffic.<br />
<br />
We were pleased to finally reach our hotel in one piece but its a terrible let down after Rivertown. The Sunland is an ageing hippy of a hotel, complete with the most dreadful decor you've ever seen. There's a roof top bar (which was flooded) and a tiny bath tub of a pool (out of action due to the lightning). We ate at the restaurant which is clearly targeted at British tourists. We chose from the only page of asian dishes available and everything tasted like the buffet at Gateway Plaza.<br />

And yet, we've done just that for 5 days and tomorrow when we leave we will be very sad. Every time you go into the Ancient Town you see something new. And in our case, every time you walk down one of those streets you buy something new. It took me a couple of days to warm to the whole custom tailoring thing- I'm more of a ready made, Target type of girl- but my suitcase now contains 2 pairs of pants, 2 skirts, a dress, a leather belt and a pair of shoes, all designed to fit no one else but me. Geoff has a suit, a shirt, 4 pairs of shorts and some magnificent boots and even Taine has a new jacket. As for Sophie... her last purchase was a leather jacket that she was measured for at 1pm and we picked up at 7 tonight! The pleasure of owning clothes that fit perfectly is quite addictive.<br />

This morning was our first 'sleep in'. We're adapting to the 3 hr time difference just in time to go home. Geoff and I had a very leisurely breakfast while Soph went to the gym and Taine continued to sleep and then we went into town. It's possible to get into the Ancient Town section of the city without paying the requested fee but the ticket sales go towards the upkeep of the temples and Old Houses, so we willingly paid for ours and today we used a couple of the attached passes to look inside the various temples and shrines dotted along the streets. In one, a lovely Chinese gentleman was transcribing the writing at the shrine and he explained that it had been built in memory of hundreds of Chinese Vietnamese traders who, in the 1500s, had been killed by the government when they were on a trading mission to Hoi An. This temple remembers them but also keeps their families safe on future trips. Kids in my English class know that I like to make connections between experiences to make sense of them and this story was so like many we heard in Europe - as the locals love to say here, " Same, same but different."<br />

In between shoe fittings we bought some completely useless souvenirs and had iced coffee and Banh Mi at a cafe. Like so many of the eateries in Hoi An, the front looked like a cafe but it was really a family residence. The food is prepared in the family kitchen and the 'restroom' is the family toilet and shower. I had to wait for one of the kids to finish brushing their teeth so I could wash my hands.<br />
In Australia we'd call it the bush telegraph, in Vietnam I think it's done by text but next minute who should show up at our table but the lovely Kim, the lady I pinky promised I'd have a massage with today. Her sister was worried we'd reneged on the deal but we assured her we were just cooling down before we came to see her. Turns out the cafe is run by Kim's daughter in law, which is a very lucky coincidence because otherwise we might have got lost and missed our 'appointment'.<br />

Down an alley in the market we found Kim's sisters, ready to shave our legs, thread our eyebrows, pierce our ears... pretty much any beauty treatment you can think of, all dispensed from a tray of potions on a shelf above the plastic table cloth coated massage table. We insisted that no, we'd agreed to just a neck and shoulder massage for 100 dong for me and a foot massage for Soph. Kim whisked Geoff off down the street to look at her souvenir shop and just for a milli second I became a bit anxious that I was never going to see him again and that I was going to get the 'works' despite my protestations but thankfully Sophie's assertiveness won out and I was able to enjoy what was actually a fantastic neck rub. Turns out the sisters work together to run both the beauty business and the souvenir stall. They take it in turns to work in each space and to tout for business in the market, rounding up customers like us with their own special charm. By the time the Tiger Balm was cooling, we were old friends and Kim's sister even did something clever with my hair that stopped the sweat from pooling behind my ears for 3 or 4 seconds.<br />

The tailors where Sophie got her jacket made is also a family business. The oldest sister is the manager and the 3 younger sisters, her assistants. They design the clothes and measure the customers and deliver the orders to their dad's factory where the seamstresses work in shifts, around the clock to make the clothes in super fast, same day time for the tourists. All of them have been to university for 4 years, where they studied English and Design and Dressmaking. They work 12 hours every day, with the younger girls having 2 days off a month and the manager just 3 days off a year during the Vietnamese New Year celebration. She told us they are hoping the government will mandate a 7pm closing time in Hoi An so that the shop keepers can spend more time with their children, but she's not holding out any great hope.<br />

Sophie's been hanging out to try the local street food by the river. The thought of all that unrefrigerated meat was too much for me but she assures me it was delish and at 25 000 dong ( about $1.35 AU), very reasonably priced! I have lots of Gastro Stop in my bag if it doesn't work out well for her.<br />

On the way home tonight we met our first antsy taxi driver. We've been here 5 days so we're well aware of the route and the cost back to our hotel. Everyone here has been so helpful and trustworthy (people chase you down the street if you leave anything behind in their shops), so it came as quite a shock when half way home he suggested an agreed price of double what it should be. When we made it clear we knew what the price should be he suddenly turned in Mario Andretti and started playing dodgems with the oncoming traffic.<br />
It's the only negative business transaction we've had in Hoi An.<br />

This morning, after a less substantial than usual breakfast because our tummies are struggling from yesterday's over indulgence, we took the hotel shuttle out to An Bang Beach. I'm not a great beach person but it was nice enough lying on the sun lounge for a couple of hours. Like most things in Hoi an, the lounges are allocated according to hotel and 'connections '. I don't know what happens if you just rock up and sit on the wrong chair but we were happy in the cream lounge section under a couple of substantial beach umbrellas. It wasn't Mount Maunganui but it wasn't Warrnie with a southerly blowing either and the water was as warm as a tepid bath.<br />

The ever present souvenir sellers were as abundant on the beach as they are in the town and so, of course I ended up with some balancing dragon flies and a new fan. What else can you say to a polite 30 yr old peddling her wares on a hot, sandy beach with a toddler in tow, except 'How much? Sure, I'll have 5." I haven't had time to study the social welfare situation here in too much depth but there doesn't seem to be as many people living on welfare or on the streets in Vietnam as we've noticed in other countries, including our own. Everyone just works really, really hard and ekes a living in anyway they can. </div>

Although we've been encouraged to enter many shops, no one has begged us for food or money without offering something in return. Haggling is a bit of a game in Hoi an but at the end of the day I pay whatever they're asking because it just seems fair and reasonable.</div>

It's so hot in the middle of the day that a siesta is almost mandatory and so we took one before heading back into Hoi an for our daily clothes' fittings. First stop was the Little Angel where we picked up Taine's jacket, my pants and skirts and Sophie's dress. Geoff liked his shorts so much he decided to order another couple of pairs, so I guess we'll be seeing the Angel girls again tomorrow! Having skipped lunch we decided to stop at a place on Le Loi St for an iced coffee and some carb loading. It was a foolish mistake to fall for the allure of carrot cake and french fries. Western food is not only expensive here, its also very bland but it was nice to sit for a bit.<br />

Back on the street we ventured to the Friendly Shoe Shop to have some custom leather shoes made. Soft leather for my arthritic toe, strong leather for Geoff's new boots and a long discussion about the length and cut and heel size of Sophie's boots. None for Taine because his feet grow too fast to warrant the measuring!<br />

In Hoi an the shop holders remember you - every time. Shop 'loyalty' is everything and they love to see you back in the market, always honouring the deal you made the day before if you want to buy something else. So when Taine decided he needed yet another 'genuine' adidas t shirt, we had to walk all the way to the other end of the town to our 'regular' t shirt seller. She was very happy to see us and her aunty, who just happened to be visiting, took a shine to Sophie's blue eyes and black hair (a much sought after but never achieved combo in Vietnam). I'm not sure why but we found ourselves following the aunty back to her house to meet her sisters, an accomplished pair of masseurs who, faster than you could blink, had me sitting in a chair massaging my shoulders and suggesting some eye brow threading. This is the way transactions are conducted in Hoi an and while the idea of a massage was appealing, the threading was not so we agreed (by pinky promise) to go back tomorrow for the massage if only she would let go my arm and let us go home tonight!<br />

I've been wanting to visit some of the historic buildings in Old Town since we got here but by the time we walked back to that area we discovered that Soph had left the tickets at the hotel. There was nothing for it but to stagger back to the main road to look for a taxi; there was no way I could walk all the way back to the river tonight. Heat, dehydration and over spending finally had finally taken its toll and I was almost delirious.<br />
