Greetings from Malta!

I'm into my final hours in Europe before returning to the Motherland, well over a year since my last time back. Though the blast of cold air is going to be a bit of a shock to the system, I'm very much looking forward to seeing family and friends again.

Greetings from Malta!

I decided to make a last minute trip here while I'm still in LiveAway prep mode, since we'll be doing a 2023 LiveAway to Malta, and I'm not entirely sure when it will be otherwise convenient for me to get here to do my recon.

You know it when it hits. You wake up on your river cruise down the Nile, and look out of the window, and there, right there, is one of the Pyramids aglow with morning sunlight. Or you step onto the deck of a ship working its way through the fjords of Norway, and the scale of everything around you strikes you dumb with wonder.

Greetings from Cyprus!

It's been an action-packed and actually quite challenging week. In normal times I would have done these inspection trips ages ago, but with all of the turmoil and uncertainty of the past year, the only real window to get to Europe opened a few weeks ago.

Greetings from Cyprus!

The last few weeks I've been on a bit of a whirlwind tour across Europe doing reconnaissance for a number of our upcoming tours for 2022, visiting Austria, Italy, Switzerland, France, Portugal (both Mainland and the island of Madeira), the UK, and now finally here in Cyprus.

We’ve just sat down to eat, and I’m really confused.

In every way but one, this is what I was hoping for. It’s my first visit to a Cypriot restaurant since I was living here as a kid thirty years previously, and my friend has picked well: a softly-lit place, bright colours softened with muted lighting, big well-worn tables and a creaking floorboard or two.
