https://www.instagram.com/p/BERQzjxtbvm/ Day 2 in Gatlinburg, we woke up in our Fabulous Chalet Inn beds, in a lovely cloud of must to the light shining through the hole in the curtains... Dreamy. I jest, it wasn't all that bad really. We got used to it, anyway. Plus, this (thankfully) had no bearing on the rest of the … Continue reading ONE BUNION, THREE BEARS | GREAT SMOKY MOUNTAINS | USA ROAD TRIP 2016
I would never normally use the word fabulous to describe something, but my my is it appropriate... I really, truly had my reservations about staying in Gatlinburg but it was really not as bad as I thought it would be. Yes, it's pretty tacky and sort of like stepping back in time, but LORD no matter what, … Continue reading FABULOUS GATLINBURG | USA ROAD TRIP 2016
Please note that since the time of writing this, Foamhenge has moved location and is now only accessible via Cox Farms in Centreville. In between Shenandoah and Great Smokies National Park is a magical place, built on top of a hill, behind the trees is... Foamhenge. And yes, it is what you think it is; … Continue reading FOAMHENGE | ROADSIDE ADVENTURES | USA ROAD TRIP 2016
After an early morning filled with the excitement of picking up our rental car and entering a land of dinosaurs, you might think it was about time for a rest. Nope, instead we did the exact opposite; after checking in to Skyland and getting changed, we went for a long ol' hike. Rose River Falls … Continue reading HIKING IN SHENANDOAH NATIONAL PARK | USA ROAD TRIP 2016
The fourth day of our trip came around incredibly quickly; we’d spent a solid weekend in DC, and had a lot of fun, but we were ready to pick up the car to hit the road. At 8am sharp we left the hotel, which wasn’t the easiest seeing as we were still marginally jet lagged … Continue reading WASHINGTON DC TO SHENANDOAH NP | USA ROAD TRIP 2016
(... That was intended in a non Poltergeist-y voice) Good morning, and a happy Monday to you all on what I hope is a lovely May day wherever you are reading this! The title kind of says it all, but to concur, we are indeed back from our adventures in Canada/America. Aka, we are currently in England. In … Continue reading WE’RE BACK | USA ROAD TRIP 2016
Bonjour! Happy Thursday everybody; Where are you in the world right now? Personally, I am on my way to Calgary (flying from Montreal airport), ready for a few days in Banff/Lake Louise to hit up the hiking trails (I'm wearing my faithful boots right now!) before getting the train across the Rockies to Vancouver! The last … Continue reading MONTREAL | CANADIAN ROAD TRIP 2016
Sorry about the radio silence from us! I am currently sitting in a motel near Detroit, watching TV and living the absolute high life (sarcasm), after a week of hiking, partying, sightseeing, driving, and eating absolutely all of the food, in lovely locations in very lucky weather. I cannot believe how quickly this trip has gone … Continue reading WASHINGTON TO CHICAGO | USA ROAD TRIP 2016
As you may recall me mentioning, our first day of Washington DC did not go quite as expected; there was rain, sleet, hail... All in the space of one bike tour. If you can't quite picture it, don't worry, as we've made a little vlog to go with it. https://youtu.be/EUhrmebRMNw I have a few … Continue reading BIKE RIDING IN DC | USA ROAD TRIP 2016
After yesterday's freak hail stones / blizzard, miraculously today was beautiful sunny weather; not a cloud in the sky, which we were very happy about. We walked all around the basin, and took in the sights our rain filled eyes weren't quite able to fully appreciate yesterday. We walked almost constantly for about 10 hours. … Continue reading EXPLORING WASHINGTON DC | USA ROAD TRIP 2016
