    Day 59 – Pompei and Dan Snow

    Post Views: 27 Day 59 of the “where’s my…” tour. Blimey, where’s all that time gone?! We’re calling it the “where’s my..” tour because we’ll both be exclaiming, multiple times a day, “where’s my” such and such as we panic about glasses, debit cards, passports, van key, etc etc etc. To date though, its just…

    Day 55 – Matera and travel to Paestum

    Post Views: 28 It’s another (mostly) travel day today. We’re leaving the fabulous town of Matera and heading for Greek Paestum. But first we had to check out the “other” view of Matera, from the other side of the valley looking back at the town. We couldn’t check out of the campsite until 9:30 (probably…
