About this blog

Tired of London and needing a break we decided to raid our savings and kill off Alanna's shoe & handbag fund so we could experience some different cultures for a while. Where to start? Vegas of course!! Then to Canada to reaquaint ourselves with the art of skiing and then head south through Central and South America. From there who knows....we will make this up as we go.
