Island Time

Travelling goes hand in hand with making discoveries and learning something new but this time I may have hit the jackpot – I have learnt how to become totally relaxed.

Going North to Get South…Then Walking Away

Given Florida’s lengthy north-to-south stretch, the changing latitudes also mark changing climates, cultures and accents.

He woke up whenever he heard the GPS give full-volume directions, reciting them back to me in case I didn’t hear. He then dozed off, shielding his eyes. Unfortunately for Marvin, his corrective eye surgery appointment was pushed to [...]
