ANTARCTICA

In 2003 we went on our trip-of-a-lifetime cruise to the last unspoiled place on planet Earth, the great white continent of Antarctica. The wildlife, the scenery, the whole experience: it was absolutely fantastic. I've just finished putting a brief summary of the trip here on the website: have a look, I think you'll find it fascinating. Again, here are just 5 pictures to whet your appetite.

Do you like these pictures? I took over a thousand pictures in Antarctica - after all, I don't expect I'll get the chance to go back and take any more - and I've collected the 120 best with our log of the trip for you to see.

NORWAY

The first of our really BIG trips abroad was the fortnight we spent in 1999, cruising the coast of Norway and visiting all the fjords on the Hurtigruten (Norwegian Coastal Express), travelling past North Cape to the Russian border in the Land of the Midnight Sun. Once again here are 5 pictures to tempt you to read the full account of the trip

ALASKA

After Norway we decided that we liked cruising the fjords, so we celebrated our Silver Wedding in 2001 with another fjord cruise, this time off the spectacular coast of Alaska. Yet again here are 5 pictures to tempt you to read the full account of the trip

THE REST OF THE WORLD

There's still a lot to more do on these pages, but I'm working on them now. Please come back soon and have another look. Now you can also view any photo album and even watch a slideshow of the pictures on my Flickr photo-site

Other commitments mean that it will be at least September 2005 before I can publish the pictures from our short trips to Italy, Greece, Finland, Cyprus, and Malta
