Journeys from the hive
The Travel Bees are making a V/Line for Apollo Bay. With the Victorian government offering free public transport, our V/line 195km train and coach journey…… nada. In fact, the train conductor joked that instead of showing train tickets, a photo of your dog would suffice! Unbelievable…. something to consider WA. The fuel shortage has thrown […]
Read More It’s not a Bee line, it’s a V/line – Melbourne to Apollo Bay, VictoriaLong haul flights are never much fun. The first time I visited Japan, I naively thought that it wasn’t that far away. After my European travels it would seem quick and painless. I was sadly mistaken. In reality, it is a very long day. There’s the drive from Busselton to Perth, the time spent waiting […]
Read More A travel day and a Tokyo night(Not just any beach or any bridge. I mean the beach and the bridge) Today started much the same as yesterday (yes the teenage sloth and nagging mother) but what made my morning, was the greeting we got when we finally got to Joe Black cafe. Not only did they remember us from yesterday, but […]
Read More The beach and the bridge – Sydney, NSWTravel doesn’t always mean a holiday, but it does always mean adventure, learning and growth.

Not easy, but an opportunity […]

Read More Yallingup Lagoon in pictures – Western AustraliaThe last couple of weeks have been interesting in the lagoon. We have hung up the wetsuits for the season and committed wholeheartedly to bathers only. Just like anytime entering the ocean, it is a bit of a shock to the system but once swimming, the body quickly acclimatises. That is, until you hit a […]
Read More Star gazing at Yallingup Lagoon – WAThis morning as I drove around the hill at the top of Yallingup, I knew I was in for a treat. The water was a milky millpond, with small sets rolling in across the bay and not a breath of wind. I felt myself smile and muttered to myself “wahoo, look at that!” (yes…..sometimes I […]
Read More The eyes of Yallingup Lagoon – WANo, thank goodness neither my friend nor I were anyone’s lunch! But, for our last lagoon adventure we did unusually go for our swim at lunchtime and true to Yallingup Lagoon’s form, we saw something we had never seen there before… It was a stunning day as we wandered down the path with a big […]
