On the road
After a sleep in and a quick swim in the KOA pool, we hit the road again today continuing East towards Phoenix. It was a quiet afternoon with a few stops including at a little restaurant in Palm Springs for some drinks and Tortilla chips. They had these cute outdoor seating swings that generated a nice breeze when you swung
So long LA
Today we said goodbye to our fantastic LA Airbnb hosts (and their super cute little dogs) and headed South to pick up our Cruise America RV. We've booked a relocation special to take the RV from Los Angeles to the Cruise America home base in Mesa, Arizona as it means only $30/day (score!), and a chance to see some parts
LA: Batman, TV and Baseball
Phew, another whirlwind day in sunny LA! We started our morning at Warner Bros. on one of their studio tours, wandering around and learning how sets are transformed and re-used on multiple shows. I'm a big TV fan so was really excited to hear they were filming Shameless & The Big Bang Theory while we were there. Stretched our necks
Hello again, LA
We're back in LA! It's been 7 years since our last visit and little has changed here - but a lot has changed with us.

As with so many of our trips, we're too busy to write about what's going on. We'd much rather be out
Contiki Day 7: Prague to Vienna
As most of today was spent on the bus traveling Vienna I wasn't planning on writing a blog post. However, we stopped off at the Sedlec Ossuary and it was just way too crazy to not post a couple of photos...
Contiki: Day 6 Prague
Today was our last full day in Prague. Determined to find a geocache after failing miserably last time we visited, we decided to head off to the John Lennon wall. The wall is an odd attraction. Lennon was never at the site where it stands, in fact he never actually visited Prague at all. The wall came to be known
Contiki: Days 4 & 5. Berlin -> Prague
Most of today was spent on the bus from Berlin to Prague, via Dresden. I was worried that so much time on a bus would become tedious but as it's around 0-2° in most places, the warmth of the bus is a welcome relief. The stop in Dresden was odd as it appeared the only people in the town were
