La Paz

Sandra and friend scouting the shoreline

Kids on trikes, where's the people?

Yesterday we spent the day in La Paz, a lazy walk the malecon (boardwalk) kind of day and enjoy the weather which has been close to 30C once you get away from the water. Like other places there are very few people on the streets and that made it easy for us to spot Michel and Danielle, two French tourists who we first met on the beach at El Requeson. They were waiting to catch the ferry back to the mainland, and then a train up the Copper Canyon, a popular mainland tourist destination. They refused to go to Cabo San Lucas because of it’s artificial nature, an area leveraging Mexican weather but American influence and architecture. Interesting  protest.

The Malecon has many statues on it and is a wonderful place for people to walk. Later we’d go out for lunch at a local restaurant, then back to the RV camp where I was put to work helping them lay out some new RV pull thru spots for an upcoming caravan. Maranatha is definitely a story in itself.

Coffs Harbour, Brisbane and Christmas

Coffs Harbour From Sidney we have a day’s drive up to Coffs Harbor where we have our eyes set on one last camping day. Both Coffs harbour and the Holiday park we selected Park Beach Holiday park did not disappoint. The weather was perfect to the point of being very warm into the late evening. Ocean Beach Coffs Harbour is a smaller town situated on the east coast of Australia and Coffs Creek creates a beautiful backwater entry into the ocean with a sandspit that Park Beach and the Holiday park and surroundings sit on. It is such a beautiful spot with warm shallow water and the holiday park sparkled it was so clean and well outfitted, and, it was one of the last low season days so prices were reasonable and there were few people there. The RV park desk recommended the Parks Beach Bowls Club ( https://pbbc.com.au ) for supper as we were tired of the day’s drive and wanted to maximize our stay there similar to Kiama. While it did not have the elevated view that Kiama ...

Entry to Canada using ARRIVECAN

  Entry to Canada using ArriveCan Updated Jan 19. (Minor comment Feb 16th) Information in this blog post is still current until Feb 28, 2022 at which time it will be edited with the most current information)  This is for all Canadians travelling back to Canada or US citizens considering coming to Canada. I thought we’d pass on what we learned in returning to Canada from our short driving visit to our place at ISRVR. First, we used “ Curative ”, a healthcare provider who provides PCR testing. You need to be careful as to the type of test accepted by Canada. A PCR/Naat or PCR test qualify. "Rapid Antigen" tests do not . Our tests and many others were back to us in 12-17 hrs. Some pharmacies also offer tests. Caution when using pharmacies as we are hearing more and more can not meet the 72 hr. testing window and some do not offer PCR tests. Just make sure you get a PCR test. It will take 1-2 days. Curative only offers PCR tests , follow...

The Great Ocean Road Australia

Great Ocean Road from Teddys Lookout   We’ve heard so much about the Great Ocean  Road we decided to give it a whirl. The only thing is that the weather, which apparently was as good here as it was for our 2 weeks in New Zealand turned sour Friday with a huge deluge of rain followed by more Saturday and the tail end of it with high winds today, so we started out in 14C weather. Yup! Ladysmith weather for this time of year.   Dramatic Storm Actions We can’t really complain though, the storms lashing the coast provide dramatic backdrops for mother nature’s actions and it is still a beautiful drive, different from the normal sunny beaches, but still attracting a lot of Sunday drivers today. We are fortunate in our research that Sandra mentions Teddy’s Lookout outside of Lorne Australia and we make our way to the top.  And just in case the view doesn’t attract you, or the compass rose Teddys Compass Rose showing Antarctica is only 44...
