February 7th 2012
Big Island, small waves

Indulging in Hawaii to get the surfing out of the veins, on to Central America then back to LA to pick up an RV for 2 months of campervanning through some National Parks of North America. From there, who knows? After a couple of monthes of trailer trashing I'd reckon we'd be ready for a real bed, so some blues in Chicago and some Jazz in Montreal sound appealing. A work in progress. Don't touch that dial.

Gary and Penny, from the beginning... Again. Round the world for a year in 07 and we've decided it's time once more. So packing up the house, the jobs, selling the cars and up up and away, this time with no return ticket and no fixed itinerary. A smidgin reckless, sure, but what the hell. May as well indulge in a few passions before the last great journey in who knows when. Stay tuned and please stay in contact, cause whilst we love seeing what the rest of the world has to offer, we also love receiving news from home base.... full info
