I am only half way through your diary! You had just seen the Northern Lights, something I plan to do! I love travelling and intend to do more this year too. The flooring in the loft was just about completed and you had decided to try TS without the bars, did you notice any difference without the bars? You also reminded me that my own car needs valeting, and that I should stop putting it off and get on with it! I will!
Enjoy your dvd, the photos showed a big difference, well done on the exercise too. something I am still in the 'thinking' stage of!

OMG Darcy. I will need to read all of your diary at some point. South Pacific, Northern lights!!. I take it you like to travel xx
They are both on my list of to do things. I cant go on a cruise though because I have a fear of under water creatures so have to fly then tour xxx

I can and will do this!
Oh yes, LOVE to travel
Cruising is fabulous!
.....scenery is brought to you, no packing and unpacking, fabulous service
I was very fortunate to do a 28 day cruise to the South Pacific in 2011 - hence the title of my diary
.......8 days straight at sea on the way back to LA, pacific ocean with no land in sight. Total relaxation
Panama Canal is the last place on my 'bucket list' - and trip there is booked for 2015
I am single, no children, don't smoke or drink alcohol - so travel is pretty much my only vice!

Fabulous photos Darcy - I'm another who loves to travel, though me and hubby just abandon the kids and leave them to it while we run off to enjoy ourselves, we're making up now for the travelling we didn't get to do before we had them
Good for you

I too love the travelling Darcy, but oh my word, I get so seasick, I can't even go on a two hour ferry crossing to Europe without pumping myself full of tablets. So a cruise would be pretty much my idea of hell
But I think it's great you're exploring the world a bit. I'm really tied up in my life right now but my biggest adventure so far in my life (apart from moving to Britain and making a life here for myself) was spending three months in Africa. I love all things exotic and different and unusual. I felt like a child seeing everything for the first time because everything looks so different there, starting from the red soil to the people to the buildings, absolutely everything. Very pleased to have lived among the locals as well rather than "locked away" in a tourist environment. It was one of those times that change you, although you go back to your old life after that, it leaves a stamp on you and makes you look at things differently.
I bet you are so looking forward to your next cruise, I think it's fab

Believe me Bee, I am terribly prone to motion sickness - can't play computer games 'cos they make me nauseous
.......but a 3000 passenger cruise ship is a very different beast than a ferry! I have never felt unwell - even in 12ft seas trying to dock in Shanghai! They are huge vessels, and extremely well stabilised.
I've lived and worked abroad too - though not as exotic as Africa - I lived in eastern Canada for 2 years, nursing there. Interesting experience, especially the -25 winters and the snow!
Where are you from originally, if you don't mind me asking?

Great photos Darcy. Really gorgeous scenery. Where did you see the northern lights? I saw them in Iceland!
I like travelling too but being a teacher, it costs a fortune to travel in the holidays I last went to Vietnam in October. Was fab!
OH used to work in the shipping so I was seriously fortunate to be able to travel with him. We used to go to sea for 3-4 months, docking at lovely places. I was also lucky enough to take my daughter from as young as 2 weeks! I even got lost with her in Tokyo. Not badly lost. I used her ABC picture book to get us back. B was for boat! My job ties me down these days I was a nurse back then so I did agency as and when!
Have a great day. Keep picturing the streamline version if you on that boat! X

Wow! Interesting life you have led!
Japan was always my dream destination - and I got to to go last year, to Nagasaki. Beautiful place, and such gracious people. Also went to Korea and Vietnam on that trip - also fascinating places.
I was lucky enough to see the Northern Lights on 3 nights, doing the Hurtigruten ferry up the coast of Norway. Best sighting was almost at the Russian border, near Kirkenes. Absolutely freezing up on deck at midnight in early January - but worth it for the view
Thinking about it all now, I am so fortunate to have seen so much of the world
...and the next time I walk up the gangway of a ship, there will be a lot less of me!
