This is a trip we've been looking forward to for what feels like a long time. After one short flight and two long ones, that didn't go as smoothly as our previous very long trip in April (Elinka now happily says about this weekend's journey: "I threw up on two planes! At the end and … Continue reading You’re going where?

Long weekend in the Sun
We took off for a 4 day weekend in sunny San Diego this past weekend. We wanted to get away somewhere that we could be pretty much guaranteed good weather, but not too hot, and less than 6 hours travel time per direction. Success! Of course, we hit the famous San Diego Zoo. It's definitely … Continue reading Long weekend in the Sun
A Short Day In London
We got in our bonus stop! Our final stop is in London. A great view of the city greeted us just before arrival - then we headed into Central London and went on a great walking tour from Tower of London across Tower Bridge, then along the South Bank to Westminster. It's a great walk … Continue reading A Short Day In London
A City in a Garden
The final stop on our Asian adventure is the exciting city state of Singapore. Immediately on arrival you're struck by how organized, efficient, clean, and friendly the city is. The MRT (subway) has got to be the best single mode mass transportation system I've been on (as an integrated system, I think Paris takes the … Continue reading A City in a Garden
And now for something completely different
We left Bali and are slowly making our way home. Our first stop is an overnight stay in the modern, busy city of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Unfortunately the distance of the airport to the city bites into the time you can spend on the ground (it's about one hour each way) but it was a … Continue reading And now for something completely different

First, let me share with you a number of the beautifully set temples and historical sites that we visited on our last several days in Bali. … Continue reading Last Words From Bali
Monkey Business
Every good day starts off with a good breakfast. Did I mention that we've been having these delicious banana coconut pancakes almost every morning? Plus other stuff, like fresh fruits, fresh bread, and duck eggs that are produced about 20 feet away from the kitchen. Also, in Bali, along with a good breakfast, the day … Continue reading Monkey Business
First Few Days in Ubud
As I mentioned at the end of the previous post, the place that we are staying is only accessible by foot, bicycle, or scooter. It's about 2 km off the main road. On our trips to the local places on "our street" and in to town, we've been amazed by how many things are transported … Continue reading First Few Days in Ubud
All across the world
After a short-but-long work week full of anticipation, we set off from home late Thursday evening. Our first leg of the journey was from Calgary to London Heathrow on British Airways. It's a very convenient flight time for travel, as you don't even need to leave work early on the first day of your trip … Continue reading All across the world
The Journey Begins… almost 4 years after it all began
Thanks for joining us! We figured it was about time to start a blog to share our wonderful family adventures instead of social media. The map below shows we're we've been so far as a family since we became 3 in May 2015. Can't wait to add more dots and the photos and stories that … Continue reading The Journey Begins… almost 4 years after it all began
