Baby turtle release – Bintan, Indonesia

The Travel Bees have been super lucky to experience the release of 75 baby turtles here on Bintan. Twice a year Green and Hawksbill turtles come ashore to lay their eggs. At Club Med, that happens all along the beach including on the beach volleyball court, and under sun-loungers. To prevent unsuspecting holiday makers from […]

Club Med Bintan Island – Indonesia

We have made it to the lush and relaxing paradise that is Bintan Island. Only a short 55 minute ferry ride from Singapore, Bintan is a destination low on travel stress. Arriving at Changi airport (in my experience, the best airport in the world) everything is easy. From collecting baggage to passing through immigration, it […]

Gardens by the Bay – Singapore

The Travel Bees are off on a different kind of holiday this week. Our usual adventures; jam packed with sight seeing and activities is not what the family needed at this point in time. After a busy few months of working, adjusting to the demands of ATAR and training hard for sport, complete relaxation is […]

‘Tall timber’ country – Manjimup, South West WA

Travel doesn’t always mean a holiday, but it does always mean adventure, learning and growth. With a nationwide shortage of medical imaging technologists, I decided to do my part and volunteered to staff our trailer in Manjimup – south west WA. This means time away from home and the family. Not easy, but an opportunity […]

Cape to Cape track – Cape Leeuwin, WA

I’ll start by admitting this is not an article about completing the whole track, but merely a couple of day jaunts while on our annual easter trip to Augusta. As the weather was not really conducive to our usual swimming adventures, I managed to convince a few of my fellow campers to join me on […]

Inquisitive visitors in Geographe Bay – Busselton WA

Gatti di Roma – Cats of Rome – Italy

I love when you are traveling and you discover something completely unexpected. That is exactly what happened on our last day in Rome. We had spent the morning in the Vatican City posing for photos in St Peter’s Square. The kids were a bit ‘over’ looking at sights so we had a quick cuppa and […]

Lost in another world….. again – Busselton Jetty, WA

This morning’s adventure. Loving the GoPro. Time to get that scuba ticket I think!! https://thetravelbee.blog/2021/03/21/lost-in-another-world-busselton-jetty-with-a-snorkel/ TTB

The glorious foods of Roma – Italy

By the time we made it to Italy, I was feeling a little weary and completely incapable of blogging. We had been travelling for five weeks and whilst Rome is an amazing place to sightsee and to explore rich history, we had to take it easy. Each day, we chose one sight to see and […]

Best of Copenhagen – Denmark

Our four day ‘city break’ destination of Copenhagen turned out to be a brilliant pick. With the Travel Bee’s joined by Aunty and Uncle Travel Bee, it was difficult to find somewhere none of us had been (yes Aunty and Uncle do like to travel as much as us!). The kids were a little dubious […]
