Come Along With Us On Our Journey

 

COME ALONG WITH US ON OUR JOURNEY BECAUSE TRAVELLING IS AN ADVENTURE!!

safe and healthy journey

It would be so great if you could come along with us on our journey!

Our plan is to visit as many places as we can on our travels around the world!

Our “journey plan” is currently very open and we have not yet decided where our first stop should be.  North America…South America…Europe…Asia…Africa…Australia…Antartica

Our travels should realistically begin in North America, although we have lived and travelled quite a bit there.  We have travelled to Florida, Idaho, Colorado, Nevada, Texas, South Carolina, Pennsylvania, New York, California, Oregon, Washington, New Mexico, Arizona, Oklahoma, North Carolina, Tennessee, and others.

So, perhaps the next place to visit should be somewhere close but not too close…perhaps South America or Central America.

Belize would be an interesting place to visit.  It is an English speaking country, so it would be easier for most travellers to communicate more easily.

The people of Belize wear western clothing and can be fairly conservative in the way they dress and behave. In cities long pants and long-sleeved shirts are common for most occasions, but on weekends and along the beaches shorts and short-sleeve shirts are popular.

There are few dress or behavioral restrictions in Belize. Many tourists visit the country solely for the beaches so scantily clad dress is commonly accepted. If visiting religious sites, such as churches, more formal dress is required as long pants and covering at least your shoulders is expected. The same requirements can also be extended to nice restaurants and hotels away from the beaches. Sunbathing naked or women sunbathing topless is often restricted so check with locals before doing so.  Safari the Globe

Snowy Sunday Afternoon in Spring

A snowy Sunday afternoon in Spring

In my opinion, we should not be having cold or snow today, but we are!  To me, Spring is a time to be out and about, walking, hiking, biking…all those outdoor type activities.  Instead, because it is cold and windy, I will stay home and play catch up on some computer work, housework…but hey, I may even turn on the oven and bake something.  It is important to keep the house warm, and this is certainly a good smelling, good tasting thing to do!

Since my birthday is in two days, I am thinking about molten lava cakes.  I got some nice,  new ramekins of a good size 9 inches, which would be a very good dish to cook the cakes in.  Mmm, getting hungry thinking about it 🙂

Spring is one of my favorite times of the year with the buds popping out on trees, and early Spring flowers peeping from the ground.  And in some places you may even see some flowers peeping from the snowy ground 🙂

But, thinking about flowers and warm weather has distracted me.  I should be in the kitchen warming up the house…don’t you think??

Have a great day, and we will chat again soon!  🙂
