Duck hunting
Getting my 30 minutes of exercise each day isn’t already easy… just getting out of bed can be a mammoth task some days… but once I am up and going it is generally quite enjoyable.

Feel free to add your comments on what you might think is better and any experiences you might have had travelling with tech. Todays activity … Continue reading

The Jacaranda

Today is the day…
We have been planning our trip to Europe for some time now and from the very beginning we have acknowledged the need to get fit before we go, to ensure that we have a good time, without getting too tired or sustaining an injury from being under-prepared. We did start walking each day a couple … Continue reading
