February 9, 2010 - Nassau, Bahamas
We could complain about the cold down here in Miami, but I think our Midwestern friends and relatives would probably string us up if we did. The locals are complaining about the coolness, but we sure aren't.We took a shuttle this morning to the airport, and then another to the cruise ship. All went very smoothly, and we boarded the Destiny with no troubles. Our cabins are only two apart. They had a wonderful lunch ready for us, since we couldn't get into our cabins until 1:30.

Voilà, avec un an de retard, je visite enfin le Mexique... Euh non pardon, je viens travailler deux semaines au Mexique. Le programme est le suivant : une semaine de conférence à Guanajuato suivie d'une semaine de recherche intensive avec Gelasio S.....r à San Luis Potosí.Tout commence par un cafouillage aérien qui a déjà fait l'objet du message précédent. Je finis donc par arriver à Mexico DF (pour Districto Federal) le lundi midi, après avoir pu admirer les différents paysages...

Today was a social day from beginning to end. Kierstin ended up sleeping over at her friend's house, so I went and picked her up first thing in the morning. She's totally set with friends here. I mentioned this before, but the group of friends she has here is amazing. The kids have a lot of fun when they are with each other, but are careful and look out for each other. They all come from such different backgrounds and at this age many of them have already done a fair bit of travelling, have...

Hi All, Well the Roberts' had a fabulous weekend although our legs were a bit worse for wear from all the walking! All well worth it! Set out on Friday night to go to "Gordons Wine Bar" - a very well known locals joint. You go pretty much underground into a 'cave like' looking room where there are just tons of people packed in. There is crazy busy bar where barmen are just corking bottles of wine. You just order your bottle and they give you the number of glasses you need. The palce is...

Nun erscheint es mir an der Zeit euch von meiner tollen Outbacktour zu unterrichten. Fangen wir mal ganz von vorne an. 27.1.2010 (Mittwoch) Der erste Tag war einfach mal nicht so schoen. Wir sind knapp 12h (also 850km) am Stueck zu unserem ersten Stop gefahren. Dazu kommt das der Bus sehr klein war und das Wetter unertraeglich heiss. Langweilig ist das ganze Gefahre uebrigens auch. Dafuer wurden wir aber gleich an unserem erstern Stop Coober Pedy dafuer entschaedigt. Coober Pedy ist fuer...

February 8, 2010 - Miami, Florida, United States
Well, the flock has landed, and although it's a tad chilly by Miami standards, you won't catch us winter-weary Iowans complaining. No trouble getting to our hotel, the Hyatt Place, in a Miami suburb named Doral. In case you're interested, the hotel is about 17 miles from Sun Life Stadium, where the Super Bowl is currently being played. Things seem pretty dead around hear, since everyone is probably at the game or home glued to their TV set. We had a super meal at an Italian restaurant,...

February 7, 2010 - Arequipa, Peru
Hola amigos. We are coming to you live from the warm and rocky cactus-town of Arequipa in southern Peru. Apparently we are television stars in Australia care of channel 7 news and a local natural disaster, so we decided to leave Cusco before our stardom got too out of hand. We thought that the best way to celebrate surviving our first trek would be to book in for another one! Before that however we made a few days' stopover in Puno to visit Lake Titicaca (loving that name!). Within an hour of...

The weather is beautiful, but still not beach weather yet!! So I don't have a great tan, but Im getting into shape. Surprisingly, Im not that sore which is awesome. The show that we are learning is called Now and Forever and it is a Broadway themed show. I got the solo for the song "Simply Irresistable" ... so sorry dad but all the...

Well, here we are in Moline, at the airport, waiting for our flight. Here's a picture of our happy little group. Let's meet the gang! From left to right, Steve, Sharon, Cindy, Jeanne, and Julie. The Three French Hens are in the middle, with Jeanne doing her best Zorro imitation. (Jeanne and Sharon are Cindy's sisters, Julie is a friend of Jeanne's). No problems going through security, although Julie was jailed briefly (just kidding) and Sharon's fake knee caused a bit of chaos. ...

Thus spake The Leader of the Opposition as we walked through Hong Kong on our first day, proving that you can't be brilliant all the time. She claims its a profound philosophical comment. Our 9 hr flight from Melbourne was a breeze thanks to Cathay Pacific's great in-flight entertainment. This system of choosing your own things from a choice of easily 50 films as well as TV shows, documentaries and 800 albums really is a travel revolution. Flights of 9 hours just whizz by. Unusually for us we...

Kierstin had a great time with her friends last night. First they went to PanaRock, then to Chapiteau. Both are bars/restaurants. The teens here hang out in places like bars for a couple of reasons. Being totally realistic the first reason is probably because, there isn't an inforced drinking age. If you can afford the drinks, you can drink the drinks. Kierstin didn't partake in that way. She has been to plenty of parties where there is alcohol and she has fun without it. Especially here,...

Marrakech After a 3 day trek and 2 nights in Berber houses we were really looking forward to spending our final three nights in a riad in Marrakech, and Riad el Solar did not let us down. Like the one in Fes, this riad, home to an artist and writer, had been lovingly restored, keeping original features such as the intricately painted living room ceiling, the balconied rooms and the central patio and swimming pool. On the roof terrace with sundeck you could watch the sun set over the snow...

February 1, 2010 - Jasper, Canada
I did not expect to be back here so soon, yet here I am! The snowboarding in Jasper has been great for building my confidence on the slopes. In my excitement, I got my own board and have been up at Marmot Basin about 5 or 6 times now. The view is spectacular and when the low clouds set in, there’s a surreal feeling that you’re atop one of many snowy, mountainous islands, simply floating among a grey and white sea. I am learning how to carve now but am fairly certain I’d like...

December 26, 2009 - Winnipeg, Canada
December was full of good times and festive cheer. It was fantastic to see the fish, Inuk (my ball python) and Star (my Siberian Husky) after so long. Julia and I returned to our regularly scheduled JJ Days baking gingerbread men and, if I do say so myself, we put together one MEAN gingerbread house - complete with a penguin parade. We decorated the Christmas tree and listened to old Christmas records, while Kiki sang right along, out of tune as usual. No decorating session could be...

Three Day Trek in the High Atlas Mountains The night before our trek was spent at the wonderful Kasbah Samra, a wonderfully restored Berber 'Douar' (dwelling house), owned by Jacqueline, a Swiss lady. We all sat down on cushions to eat a lovely meal at night, and talk and share experiences with the other guests. In the morning we were met by our guide for the start of the eventful three day trek. The weather the first morning was beautiful and we had a lovely walk up over the Amghedoul pass...

Desert Adventure We've now moved south, staying af Erfoud, on the edge of the desert. The journey down along dirt roads was not without incident, having a puncture after hitting one of the many potholes. The next day we set off for our desert adventure travelling on the sandy piste trail to Merzouga in an enormous palmeraie. From here we had an incredible panorama of the sea of sand dunes of the Erg Chebbi. At about 5pm we set off on our camel train into the Sahara desert. The colours of...

Casablanca, Chefchaouen and Fez Our first morning was spent seeing Casablanca, with the only real attraction being the Hassan II mosque, the third-largest mosque in the world. It was built in 1993 to commemorate the former king's 60th birthday, ad is one of the very few Islamic religious buildings open to non-Muslims. In the afternoon we had quite a long drive to Chefchaouen in the north. Chefchaouen (meaning 'Look at the Peaks') is a delightful place, set in the Rif mountains. All the...
