In the spirit of just having booked our tickets for our very first actual vacation, one that is not tacked onto the end of a business trip and the King booking one of these bad boys to tour Ireland and the UK… I will share an old post about the Princess’ fear of the family RV vacation…
That Time We Wished We Had a Delorian
Today I felt like pulling out something old to share with you… For new readers, you will get to dig deeper into my mind and for you faithful from the beginning readers, it’s fun to look back… right?!

I’m Not Changing Much, Just Turning Slightly….
As with all things fluid, I find my direction changing again ever so slightly. When I started this blog I was hell bent on imparting all the knowledge I had on raising kids. I was always getting compliments on how well behaved our kids were and asked how we did it. The King was encouraging me to write a book. …
Viva Espana… A Perfect Place for an Educational Vacation
Our Spanish vacation is over, we’re heading home at 500 miles per hour. Racing the darkness, traveling against the rotation of the earth. It’s funny that every time you return from anywhere to the USA, you time travel backwards. If only you could get a little younger or a little thinner in the process.
Madrid by Iphone and the train to Barcelona…
We spent a couple of days looking around Madrid while the King did the business. It rained the whole time but we still enjoyed the sites. The kids even tried Spanish McDonald’s.. verdict? It’s the same.

I find travelling with the clock is easier than travelling against it. Whenever I travel it’s usually over several time zones, therefore the adjustment is bigger. They say that it …
Time Travellers……..
So that was a long trip…leaving Brisbane 8.25pm Monday night Australian time (6.30 am NY time) and overnighting in the fleabag hotel in Sydney. Having breakfast in The Qantas club this morning did start the day off nicely though and erased all thought of the evening’s accommodations. We boarded Tuesday morning in Sydney 10am bound for LAX. Our first time …
