Farewells





Birthdays, blackouts, farewells and spells

Our farewell party at Briget's house was a hoot. Evening storm and temp. of 34 degrees huge drop to 18 degrees by end of evening, lots of chatter, blackout, candles, lights on, birthday, great food, dancing, friends lovely messages for our trip, Rachel's travel spell for a safe return and end of daylight savings. Thank you friends, we had a ball and whilst we will miss you and think of you in the strangest of places and perhaps under the craziest of circumstances, we know that on our return our friends will be here to welcome us home.

Welcome

Join us (Robby and Paul) as we take a holiday that will soar us to new and different heights of excitement, joy and alarm; create pictures that will be surreal, colourful and oh so real and where the vastness of the world will enlighten our knowing. This is a journey in the making. For me (Robby) four years ago when my work offered a 4 for 5 deal where on the 5th year you can take a year off (conditions applied of course). For Paul, the mystery and excitement of a long term holiday, triggered by the possibility of visiting exotic regions where nature is at its best is a tantaslising option. So now the trip is unfolding. After several postponements, we are off on Friday 13 April to South Amercia followed by parts of Europe and India. Around 7 months! Well at least that's the plan at the moment.
Just added a photo. Can I do it?
