Western Australia

Perth and Western Australia We had a wonderful time with friends who live just north of Perth, Western Australia – a four-hour flight from Melbourne. We loved their home just up from the beach – beautiful sea views from their wrap-around balcony in the mornings. First thing the next morning was a dip in the ocean before it got too hot. The water was not nearly as warm as expected but a great glimpse of their seaside life. A beautiful sunset walk along the promenade was a great way to end that first day. They had strongly suggested a visit to Rottnest Island (named after the native marsupial called a Quokka that appeared to be a large rat to the German’s who named the island). It has been a Western Australia island resort for a very long time and was fun to see this family resort community. We had booked one of the least expensive options other than camping or a hostel, but our friends said “heritage” actually just means “old”. The front of the cottage was, in fact, tented, an...

Africa continues - two days in Cape Town - and Stan's Trip Report #15

Wow - what a finish to our epic trip. We've been home a couple of weeks and finally settling into a bit of a summer routine. Time to finish out this blog. I left this once we were back on the ship in Port Elizabeth after a great day in Addo Elephant Park. One thing we were very aware of that first day in South Africa were the townships. Apartheid has been gone officially for many years now, but in practicality there is still a great degree of separation. Our road to the main entrance at Addo passed what we could easily identify as a separate and not particularly inviting "neighborhood" in the bush on the edge of town. All along the highway there were people waiting for a "ride", generally it seemed to be an informal van taxi system. Vehicles stopped and people waited just about anywhere. The high fence around the area was a fixture we still don't really understand - is it keeping the neighborhood safe? from what or who? or is it to keep people inside. This...

Islands of the Indian Ocean with Stan's trip reports

Islands of the Indian Ocean After leaving Malaysia, we had over a week of island hopping around the Indian Ocean, starting with Sri Lanka (formerly Ceylan). We booked a walking tour in Colombo for the morning. It was a bit confusing finding our guide at the port gate – the confusion was where the port gate actually was. We went through two checkpoints but with not English spoken, they’d just point. It doesn’t help that there are a couple of different gates where cruise ships might dock. At any rate, after actually walking past our gate, we managed to connect. Our tour company arranged a small bus (we had 12 participants) to pick us up at the port gate rather than having to get ourselves to a point in the city. This was very helpful though a few of our group stayed in town and walked back to the ship. We had a very informative tour through the early part of the city, settled by the Dutch, including tea and cookies high in a hotel looking over the city and waterfront construction p...
