Our 3rd trip of 2015 was to Italy, the Venetian Riviera. On the Friday I worked from home and about 5pm I had a missed call. I googled the number and it turned out it was lowcostholidays. I tried to call back but within 5 mins I had an email and it turned out that our hotel was not booked properly. Rich had tried to book our transfer again with the hotel that day and this must of triggered the sequence of events which led to the phone call. It was a bit s...

Our first trip of 2015 was to India. India has always been high on my list for a country I wanted to visit.

But it is by far one of the most rewarding countries to go to, so we were very excited about it.

We had read the reviews so we knew this was going to be the best part. It had a...

The train platforms were quite different. The train came in but both sides of the train doors opened so y...

The next day we were picked at 11am to get our boat back to Bali. That didn't stop me from hitting the beach for an hour before we got picked up! We ended up walking around to meet the boat as the tide was low. Took 2 hours to get back and we sat on the top deck and we got cooked but it was better then being in the sweaty cabin downstairs. We then got our transfer which took 2 hours back to Jimbaran.. we seemed to have loads of ants in the car (I have no idea how...
