  • Continuing on my American road trip, I stopped in Las Vegas, Nevada for a short (but oh so sweet) visit. You could easily spend a week in this famous oasis just looking round the glorious hotels, let alone shopping, seeing one of the hundreds of magnificent shows and {of course} a bit of gambling! I’d always thought of  Vegas, as nothing more than casinos and partying. Whilst these features are definitely present I was pleasantly surprised to find that each...

  • There are 2 types of people when it comes to packing for a trip/holiday… 1. The Organised Packer Outfits are carefully planned, clothes are folded, shoes are cleaned (and filled with socks to save room), toiletries are categorised and bagged in separate compartments.
