Travel

Today, I will spend a day exploring Kyoto.

My ancestors in Wales had been miners and I have always been interested in what they had to go through as miners. The conditions they had worked in, in Wales, would have been different, but I would get an idea of what they went through after visiting a local mine in La Union, Murcia.

After breakfast & the obligatory coca tea, we set off this morning for Cusco, it will be a long day in the coach. Our tour guide, Rosario, overslept this morning and was met by a rousing cheer when she climbed on the bus ten minutes late.

While staying in Las Vegas, Nevada, I stayed at the  Flamingo Hotel. I had been to Las Vegas a few times previously and have seen most of the tourist sites and stayed in lots of different hotels.

Today we went to see the Giant Leshan Buddha & this evening we went to see the Sichuan Opera & Folk Art show. 

After a long flight & long day yesterday, today felt like a lie-in when getting up at 7 am. After breakfast, I went for a short walk around Miraflores before leaving the hotel around 1 pm to begin our journey to Chincha.

My flight from Madrid to Lima was uneventful, but as normal, I could not sleep on the plane. After twelve & a half hours in flight, the plane landed in Lima & I was glad to get off & to have arrived in Peru.

Today, I travelled from Los Alcazares to Alicante for an overnight stay.

I will travel from Los Alcazares to Madrid the day before my flight to Japan and stay overnight in Madrid.

I went to Valencia by train from Balsicas the day before my cruise departed.

I took my Uncle Dave with me to America in 2012. This would be his first visit to most of the places we would visit. The tour started with a few nights at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles.

I woke up today very excited; this was why I came on this trip. Today, I would be going to the place my dad always wanted to go but couldn't because of his health. It was the day I would visit Machu Picchu.

We checked out of our hotel in Madrid today to take the Spanish version of the bullet train to Barcelona. It was quite comfortable and a lot better than the Chinese one I went on just a few months ago.

Today, I made the final part of my journey from Madrid to Los Alcazares.

I arrived back in Madrid, Spain today & then made my way back to Los Alcazares.

Today was a long day spent flying from Madrid to Honolulu via Amsterdam and Los Angeles.

My flight from Vancouver arrived back in Madrid today. 

Today, we arrived in Malaga, Spain. It was a place I had never been to and was not what I expected.

Today, I flew to Marrakech for my short stay in the Moroccan city.

I spent today onboard the ship, resting and trying to catch up on my sleep.
