Macdonald Bath

... , swimming pool. It was absolute hell!    We did manage to escape a few times to explore the beautiful city of Bath, including the obligatory ride on the open-top tourist bus!   The toughest decisions we made all week were between Cafe ...

... we reflect back on the day, how well we feel after a 26 kms, six hour walk.  Of course, the fact our room has a bath was another major benefit and an aid to recovery. It was good to read the comments you have been posting for us, and Greg, we ...

... far as the salad. Small town America can be incredibly frustrating. With no other option we succumbed once again to MacDonald's (I'm so ashamed) and bought beer to make up for it. Before I forget, being swamped with adverts I ...

... Fitzgerald). Then passout. Breakfast. Stomach ache returns (another Star Wars-esque encounter). Another torturous bus ride. More Macdonald (am I stupid? yes). 50,000 Won shopping spree on western grocery items (peanut butter, mustard, soups, REAL ...

... called the "Bali Belly", so we caved.  Little did we know that the experience would be far from that of American MacDonald's.  They had similar food items, but they were playing the foulest gangsta rap we've ever heard piped into a public ...

... clean air of Lake Taupo, the third largest lake in the world.  Taupo was beautiful.  Interestingly enough, the local MacDonald's had purchased and refurbished an old DC3 for extra dining space in the children's play area.  We sprang ...

... now feel like I know quite well. Kids are always a riot - the other day one little boy became very confused as we sang Old Macdonald had a Farm. When we reached the cow-part and sang "here a moo, there a moo, everywhere a moo moo" poor little Hiromu ...

... we saw a sign - 40k to Geneva!!! After 1hr and 1/2 we stopped at the bottom of a 5km descent and had a MacDonald's double cheese burger, making use of the free wifi. Definitely the best MacDonalds ever with a beautiful view of the swiss countryside  ...

... if I forget my steripen.  No recycling here.  However, far from blaming the Indian people, I realize that like the MacDonald's example above it represents an incursion from the west.  It's just that here they don't treat their waste with ...

... At the pool we met four NZ's from Northland and these people co-incidentally knew some of our friends up Nat Kaitaia. Name Bryce and Alvin MacDonald and they were at our wedding. We actually met them again at Avril's wedding in Nelson and a few of you may ...

... north west coast scenery with amazing stops and weather permitting walks in magnificent Glencoe (hear the tragic tale of the MacDonald's Massacre), then we head through the breathtaking hills and glens, via Fort William, Ben Nevis and Glen Garry to ...

... ;a good day though, quite strict with food and drink down at Bondi (spoils the fun a bit, we ended up drinking wine from MacDonald's cardboard cups!!) but at least I can say I've done it!  Like I can also say, I've sat in the ...

Ok, so the weekend started with a heart-stopping trio of Macdonald's meal, Baskin Robins milkshake and Dunkin' Donuts donut. You need to understand that sometimes the primal North American diet screams out for excessive amounts of fat. The reason? Well ...

... hour to wait so went for a short wander.  There wasn't much to see beyond the train station in the rain except for the MacDonald's, so I sat on the platform and waited for the train.  I also ate the peanut butter kit Kat that I was waiting to ...

... his life might have taken a very different course.  Esfahan is also a modern city with fast food joints in Macdonald colours.  We found six coffee shops, all rather bewilderingly crammed into one short street.  Industry on the outskirts, ...

... 10:00am and hit the Bazaar yet again. I spent $513.00 from the 8th until yesterday. Impossible! Oh well, sorry mom and dad! Hit MacDonald's again and went back to shower w/ Rachel for the 2nd night in a row. She makes bath time so much fun! Watched a ...

... ) and drove the whole length of the Island to get our bearings. We managed to take in a tasty MacDonald's, Durian Pernagin Waterfalls (full of men having a bath!), an overpriced craft village, and then we went up the world’s steepest cable car on ...
