Mykonos – Island of the Wind
Our second port of discovery is the beautiful islands of Mykonos – with its narrow winding streets filled with lots of colour, and the fascinating archelogical site of Delos predating Popii by 700 years.

After another big year for Deb we are once again very fortunate to be able to traveling to far off lands to have amazing adventures while having the opportunity to explore, relax and hang out with friends we have made from all over the world. Thanks to Stampin’ Up! we start our trip with a Greek Island cruise and then we head off on our own to do some exploring in Europe.

With the help of Melbourne suspension specialists “Spension R Us” we upgraded to a 50mm lowered Wilbers shock and progressive springs up front, transforming the handling of the bike.
If there was one word that best describes my daughter Megan’s wedding it would be joyous.
The day was perfect for an outside wedding. Goldcreek Station was the perfect location – so close to Canberra but felt a million miles from the city. And Red Photography was fantastic at capturing the special day for us.
When Deb initially mentioned the weekend to me she suggested we take the bike. Okay, she had me at bike…. so we decided to make it into a long long weekend by taking Friday and Monday off and do a bit of exploring.
