Europe 2019 Snow Todays drive went upwards. Plenty of spectacular views and even briefly snow, though luckily not enough to make an impact on the road. We also went through a scarily well armed police patrol
Europe 2019 Running in the Alps So they won. We drove to the point where we left of yesterday and simply continued walking up river. But, I guess we didn't really know how else we could possibly top walking
Europe 2019 Verzasca Okay, so the hunt didn't take us all the way to the white tips of the mountains, but we did get closer to them. Walking along a river that seemed to every 10

Europe 2019 Slide Mountain Todays weather seems to have been like all our previous days. Terrible forecast, rain in the morning, weather magically gets a bit better while we're trying to have a little walk, and then
Europe 2019 Haut-Kœnigsbourg "Wait, are you going to France again?!" - words of wisdom floating past by outside parties while planning todays trips. And indeed, this was the case. The only part of the
Europe 2019 Dampfnudeln (Steamed noodles) The last couple of days have not been particularly blog worthy. More catching up with people, doing some fun activities, less photographic opportunities. There was some minigolf with interesting neon coloured walls that
Europe 2019 Höllental (Hell's Valley) After the weather forecast keeps on promising that tomorrow it will rain, it still hasn't really happened. I mean, it's a nice trend, but somehow I get the feeling that we will certainly
Europe 2019 Strasbourg I can't really tell whether getting up at before 8 in the morning counts as success or as failure in terms of getting used to the local timezone. Either way, I feel like
Europe 2019 Skipping Sydney Holidays! Oh how I've missed you. Planes! I have not missed you one bit. While I continue to be fascinated by the technology and love to see planes from the outside, I seem

Europe 2018 Gaudi Experience After placing lots of markers for ourselves about where we might find the famous Gaudi buildings, we walked through basically all of Barcelona in their hunt. And with the careful marker placement, we
Europe 2018 Plastic Fish It's so demotivational to start heading back before the sun has well and truly set several hours ago. Especially given that we are still used to the sun setting at the time that
Europe 2018 European Beach After yesterdays long list of complaints, we went on a mission to get a nicer room. The first attempt of this lead us to getting exactly the same room, with exactly the same
