Flashes of memories - MUGABE MUST GO!!! ZIMBABWEANS NEED THEIR HOME BACK

 
There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness - Carl Jung To be at one with God is to be at peace ... peace is to be found only within, and unless one finds it there he will never find it at all. Peace lies not in the external world. It lies within one's own soul. - Ralph Waldo Trine

Take a trip around the world

Let`s go on vacation shall we? Flick on the tune and sit back and enjoy some scenery from around the world (Technically I am yet to travel the WHOLE way around the world so you will have to settle for HALF-way around the world!)



First stop is a view over Clew Bay, Southern Ireland.

Hiya Lara,

Allow me to join you in that sigh... that really would be a dream come true!

Hey Epiphanie

Good luck with saving for that trip. It`s also on my agenda for sometime down the track. New Zealand has to be one of the most spectacular places I have ever been. It would be hard to top the majestic scenery that the South Island has to offer.

Hi Tracy

Thanks for coming along the ride. Glad you enjoyed the scenery!

Hiya K

Good to see you. Wouldn`t it be great to be bumbling along the road in the little Orble bus around the world. Woo hoo!

Hey Fog,

aw thanks. Brighton is one of my favourite places to live. It has the BEST vibe about it, i think because of the gay community, everyone is loving and caring and allows you to just be yourself without any questioning. The beach there holds many of my whispered secrets!

Hi Amy

Ah please feel free to come along any time!

Thanks all for coming along. I haven`t been writing much in the way of Orble blogs recently, so there`ll be a few more music 'n; pics posts soming up I think!

Hi Ash,

You make me want to go to New Zealand again... I was actually thinking of applying for a editorial job in Auckland, but I don't think I would find it culturally satisfying (and it's so cold - brrr).

You may have inspired me to post up some of my own travel photography...

As for the RTW trip, I was interested in the one that's advertised on this page for me right now - $1299 tax! But knowing me and how much I just want to get going asap, I will prob only wait till I have the money for a one-way flight to S-E Asia (prob Singapore, so I can get a short train ticket out of the country beforehand and hence get around the return ticket requirement)... then again, my travel plans change almost daily, so anythign could happen between now and whenever I travel!

Hiya Epiphanie

Definitely can recommend the trip to New Zealand. once I`m done posting on my Australian Traveller site about Ireland and the UK I`m going to do an around NZ stint. I would LOVE to go back there again, best place I`ve been to!

There are some great deals at www.bestflights.com.au for RTW trips at the moment. I`m contemplating on one myself for the end of next year actually.... depends on a few things though, but we`ll see what happens. I`d love to see some of your travel photography too!

Thanks Mis

I hope you get to see them too! By the looks of the storms you have been having in Texas you may be able to get a cruise directly over from there soon

Ash
