Cruzin around the World with Geoff & Susan
You are more than welcome to take a look into our lives as Geoff and Susan travel around Australia and the world.
Boston to Quebec
Friday 19th September We had an early start as we had some distance to travel which included a border crossing into Canada. We started to experience the magnificent country side as we drove north from Boston. The weather is still blue skies and sunny and we are constantly reminded how
Route 66 Day 1
I am just going into the pre ride briefing. The good news is there are no left hand drive motorcycles in the USA. The bad news is I have to ride on the right hand side of the road! Ride on the right Ride on the right Ride on the
Boston Tea Party
I arrived into Boston yesterday 17/9/14. I am staying in an area that is full of history so I took myself off for a walk on Boylston Street in Back Bay. I eventually decided I needed to take a break and sit for a while and have a snack. As
Chicago Cubs Ball Game
September 16/9/14, Wrigley Field. We trained it out with the locals to Wrigley Field (yes, after the man who made a fortune from chewing gum), to the home of the Chicago Cubs for our first ever ball game. For a Tuesday night they had a huge crowd. What we have
Chicago
We flew from Vegas to Chicago on Sunday 14/9/14, a 2.5 hr flight with American Airlines. They have the strangest way of handling passengers and baggage in the States and it just seems to take something simple and turn it into complicated. First of all you need to check in.
Chicago Jazz and Blues
We could hardly come to Chicago and not investigate the Jazz and Blues scene and it certainly did not disappoint . We dined at Andy’s Jazz Club and were entertained by an 18 piece jazz band. They were joined by an Afro American veteran female vocalist with a mop of
Cirque du Soleil
Wednesday 10th September We attended the 10pm “O” show – this was an amazing dance/aerial acrobatics/comedy/live musical performance in and on a large pond of water. The costumes were beautiful even if most of the performers were wet through out the performance.
September 12th, 2014
We are really relaxing and thoroughly enjoying ourselves. We have had some fabulous meals and some great wine. Vegas (compared to the rest of the States that we have seen so far) is very, very expensive. Even the locals acknowledge that. The other thing we have to get used to
9/11
September 11, 2014 In Vegas for the SSA conference at Caesars Palace. It is the casino right next door to where I am staying at the Bellagio however it takes 20 mins to walk from my room to the conference centre. These hotels/casinos are so big. 3000 guest rooms in
Las Vegas
We arrived into Vegas on Tuesday September 9th. It is only a short flight from LA (50 mins), the weather has continued to be fine, blue skies and quite warm at 90F (32C). We are now in the land of Fahrenheit, miles, dimes, nickels, quarters and “Why thank you
Breakfast at universal
Monday 8th September. We caught a taxi out to Universal Studios for a VIP tour that Lyn at Helloworld in Charters Towers had recommended. Wow, what an amazing day. It started with a fabulous breakfast before we were taken on an exclusive tour of this 400 acre complex that had
In Hollywood with Marilyn
Sunday 7th September. It seems that all the “wanna be” actors have to start somewhere, so it is usual to look-a-likes everywhere. So whilst having a snack at the Roosevelt we shared a drink with Marilyn Munroe. But just outside was Johnny Depp, Pirates of the Caribbean, Batman, Spider-Man ,
