The expat adventures of a Texas family living in Penang, Malaysia. Sunday, August 2, 2015. Our Great Big Western USA Roadtrip. On the road with a bug splattered windshield. A lot has happened in the last five years since that first attempt. My youngest child is now 10 years old and can walk for miles. What a difference that makes! Day 1: Sioux Falls, South Dakota. I guess that's where the city got its name. The waterfall which gave Sioux Falls its name. Day 2: De Smet, South Dakota. All take place has lo...

Chapter 21 - Chantara - Whatever floats your boat. I have a debt of gratitude to the concierge at the W Koh Samui whose lack of assistance actually led to a great turn of events when planning a boat trip in Koh Samui.

The expat adventures of a Texas family living in Penang, Malaysia. Friday, July 3, 2015. Castello di Amorosa: Medieval Castle in Napa Valley. Am I in Italy, or am I in California? The day's itinerary included a trip to the Farmers Market and then heading to the Culinary Institute of America at Greystone for a casual lunch and a little browsing. As we sped down the St. Helena Highway, Julia's daughter exclaimed, "The castle gates are open! All we could see from the road was the sign for Castello di Amorosa.

The Cynical Sailor and His Salty Sidekick. Going For A Walk: New Orleans {Or Dodgy RV Parks Mean More Beignets}. Although I blogged about the lack of public toilets in New Orleans. Back in January (and if you're of a certain age, you'll agree that knowing where the public toilets are is an important consideration! Here's where our little walk starts - at the Pelican RV Park.
