Remembering Cousin Love

Metal Mouth

Kind of Darth Vader-ish with all the black and the shiny helmet. One day done, 364 to go.

A Few Little Extras from Our Trip to Japan

More from the stunning Izu Peninsula with Team Japan

 Mac was well impressed that we were on volcanic rock, and that our onsen water was heated by a volcano.

 Team Japan with the Hogg Bush.

 MegaDob embarrassing himself with: a coke, potato chips, a rice roll from 7/11, and his pretty onsen-ing kimono.

A Few Little Extras from Our Trip to Vietnam

Now back at home, over the jet lag and enjoying going through our photos, we've found a few other special shots from our phones and from Sav's camera we wanted to share.

Sapa was such a great highlight. Here goes Sav running down the slope to catch up with A, our guide.

Our girl loves her bananas. Apparently, she says they were better/sweeter in Hanoi than Saigon (!?).

Temple fun.

This Ho Chi Minh museum was a bit of a bust, and Mac is still traumatised by our poor decision to take him with us to the mausoleum

 Morning time. This was a familiar early morning view.

Wonderful swimming off the boat in Halong Bay.



Group shot at the top of the Halong Bay Mega Surprise Cave.

 Hoi An rocked! The food, the buzz, the beaches...

 You've seen Sav pre wave, but have you seen her stretching through the cap?

 The water buffalo. So peaceful.

 Sunset Mac Riding.

Good night Vietnam (again).

There's been some great Mac Ride progress this Winter. Check out MegaDob in China!

Kanayama Ascent & a Descent into.... CHILDREN'S WOLRD!!!!

We had a lovely hike up Kanayama. Some temple-ing, some moon/sun pooling, some castle-ing, and then... we descended down the other side of the hill to land in CHILDREN'S WORLD!!!!

All of a sudden, little people's legs were no longer tired, and we played until sun down. Hmmm.
Sukiyaki for New Years Eve tea.
Great day for wrapping up 2015.

 Two more days, MegaDob, then those peace fingers get put back in the Dobbo holster until we are one day, again, back in Japan! Thank you Team Japan, for a wonderful visit.

Izu Peninsula-- Day Two

We had a lovely walk along the coast
