When I was in Dubai back in 2016 the word on the street was very much ‘Expo 2020’. Plans were very much afoot and when we returned in the summer of 2018 it was clear to see a city rapidly gearing up for something INCREDIBLE. I cannot imagine the devastation to all those involved when… Continue reading Expo 2020 Dubai

Quarantined on board ship!
This week hasn't been the best, Cameron got struck down with the flu and was VERY poorly for 48hrs, but thankfully as many kids do he has now bounced up as quickly as he went down. When we arrived in the port of Moorea, Tahiti a few days ago he was quite hot and off… Continue reading Quarantined on board ship!

Review of Iglu Cruises ‘Rail and Sail’
Chicago - Memphis - New Orleans via Amtrak and 7 night Caribbean Cruise from New Orleans on Carnival Dream.

I would 100% recommend this trip, I honestly don't have a bad word to say, it was possibly two of the best days of my life - and that's coming from someone with extensive world wide travel experience, specialising in the luxury travel market.
Vegas Baby!!
"What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" OK, I'm not gonna lie, I spent 48 hrs in Vegas 7 yrs ago and at the time that was quite enough for me to be able to add it to my list of 'been there, done that'. I enjoyed the time I spent there, but that was… Continue reading Vegas Baby!!
