Where do you go on holiday when you live in Tenerife?

Australia of course!

First time in almost 7 years.

On third repack as weather updates get better. No warm clothes here so started with what i could find in my wardrobe. Now weather in Australiais improving daily as they go into summer so ut come the shorts.. Never really been away!

Fly from here to Gatwick...the worse airport for any disabled traveller. Overnight stay then Emirates Business Class on Wednesday. Yup robbed my piggy bank and going in style.

David reasonably stable although sad he can't make the long journey with me. Haus Frau and close friend to keep both eyes on him and help where needed..He will be fine.

So.....off I go back again to that vast beautiful country with its warm wonderful people

See you all in few weeks

Come to my country!! Haha I hope you have a decent and smooth trip here~ not sure which state you’ll be coming to but weather is bit up and down lately with spring storms (least here in Queensland it is!) so bring a thin jacket and maybe pair of long pants just in case as well. For the most part it’s clearing up and warming up! Great time to be visiting ^-^

I’ll be there in January. Melbourne for the tennis. Plus a couple of weeks sightseeing. Second trip there. Last time we did Perth, Melbourne and Sidney. Had a great time so looking forward to coming back

Nice! Coming right in Summer so should be nice and hot but the sun will be great ^-^ And what better way to spend the summer day than at Tennis and sightseeing. Glad to hear you had a great time before and hope you do again! :D

Have a good time out there, like you I spent a long time in a place most people only think of as a holiday destination and use to tell people I have not had a holiday in 10 years but living on my sail boat in the Caribbean was just a long holiday.

Wishingyou all the best for your holiday
