Salem - Massachusetts! Some pretty horrible stuff went down in this town in the 1600s and it was definitely one of the more darker moments in human history. The town has certainly not forgotten the events and there is plenty of memorial like places located along the Heritage Trail that winds through the town. Again …
Huzzah!! It’s BOSTON! Home of the Celtics, Old Ironsides and Paul Revere
We spent from Monday the 20th to Sunday the 26th of November in Boston and decided it could definitely go on our list. That list we have prepared in case we ever win gazillions of dollars and need to purchase holiday homes around the world - so far we'd have a house/apartment in San Diego, …

Oh CANADA!!! We can’t stay out of you!! NIAGARA FALLS
We headed north and decided that we would do the Falls from the Canadian side. But before we got there we stopped overnight in a very special place in Pennsylvania. HERSHEY! The suburb/town is actually called Hershey and it has The Chocolate World in it. Clearly it is the home of Hershey chocolate and of …

WASHINGTON DC!! The Home of…All the Very Important Things
We drove into Washington DC Sunday evening the 4th of November to begin our adventure in the Nation's Capital. It just so happens we timed it for that magical 4 yearly event called a National Election. In the home of The Whitehouse, Capitol Hill, the Lincoln Memorial, the Library of Congress we are sightseeing at …

CHICAGO!! A city I can add to the list for my Holiday Home Wish List.
We were both looking forward to visiting the Windy City! And neither of us were disappointed! The problem with travel blogging some of the places we've been I've discovered, is that there is just TOO MUCH to talk about to fit into one entry. For the Cliff Notes I have made a list of all …

The Roadtrip Continues…onto TENNESSEE!!
We said goodbye to Net and moved on aiming for the little town of Gatlinburg to take in the fall colours in one of their best environments - the Smoky Mountains National Park. This photo below is one of my most favourite photos I took on the drive there. Taken from the car just looking …
ATLANTA!! Hurrah! Home of Coke and A Giant Aquarium Of Dubious Intent
After Tampa it was off to Atlanta Georgia to stay with my buddy Nanette. Net and I first started chatting online probably about 2009 I guess. Via our mutual love for the TV show Smallville. When I was first in the States in 2010 Net I chatted on the phone and from then on we …

Drive, PLAY HARD, Drive
We were on the road to my friend Nanette's place in Atlanta, Georgia and we had two choices ahead of us once we were through the everglades - head up the West Coast or head up the East Coast of Florida. The lure of Roller Coasters was too strong. We chose East Coast because that …
KeyWest – the southern most point of the United States of America
I really liked KeyWest - to me it felt like an even more laid back New Orleans but with heaps more water and a lot less vehicles and a very tropical island like feel to it. It's what Rottnest Island would be with a much more Bahamian type influence, more famous visitors, more bars, more …

Miami…on the look out for Dexter Morgan – a very unusual serial killer.
Onwards!! We drove on down the Florida everglades and headed into Miami. We were spending a couple nights in this town - nothing special in mind for us to see and do, but just to soak up the ambiance and to see if we could spot any well known filming spots for one of our …
