Even though Andrew scoffs my choice of music, I still believe that singing 'The Boxer' while cruising around California in an open topped Ford Mustang is just one of those sublime life experiences !
Anyway, music apart, so far this year I've been fortunate to travel yet again on a couple of short trips to favourite haunts of western Algarve and North Wales......both with great beaches.
However the big trip has been to California where the epic 3,500 mile road trip meant some fantastic landscapes, amazing food (wild king salmon fresh from the Klamath river) and brilliant wildlife.
And as the above images from California show, it was a great trip.......and you can imagine it was hard to come home.
Roll on Hong Kong in a few weeks time - it helps having a global family !
