Travel

A couple of photos taken here and there. Most new pictures are on Instagram these days, I made an exception for the new Luxembourg & US pics.

Australia

Currently Melbourne CBD-based, I've also lived in Perth, Sydney and other locations. I've driven solo across the country three times, usually 3 days at 13 hours per day. Longest run was Melbourne to Ceduna, 16 hours 40 minutes, I was used up. The latest from Melbourne is in webcam land.

London

Many visits while based in Luxembourg, a fun experience attending places we've all seen on TV. I ended up with UK-based meetings, they were usually scheduled for a Friday or Monday in London or Birmingham giving me weekends in the UK.

Luxembourg

I spent 10 years in Luxembourg. I lived in the city centre for 5 years, loved it, miss it - a few minutes walk to Place d'Armes, a few minutes walk to Scott's, the pub in the Grund. 2023-12-09 - 2023-12-21 I was in Lux for a visit. The two Grund panoramas are pretty much 180 degrees apart, looking at each other.

Singapore

Countless stop overs on the Melbourne - Singapore - London - Luxembourg route. One week based there for work. Changi Airport is great.

Switzerland

One vacation, 2 or 4 work visits and a few ski trips. I enjoyed Geneva and the drive around Lake Geneva (Lac Léman). The north, Swiss, side was a lot more interesting than the south, French, side.

Trier

German town close to Luxembourg, 2 visits. Visiting McDonalds I started ordering in French. Scheisse. Ended up using English.

Venice

Fantastic work incentive 3 day weekend, thanks Dave and business partners. Stayed at the 'Star Hotel'. A large credit card bill as Dave left his wallet including credit cards and passport in Luxembourg. I paid for dinner for 30 and put in a great expense claim on return.

The Audi A4

I liked that car - slam the door at the end of a bad day and it'd make a nice, tidy German sound. So did the second Audi A4.
