Earplugs - and the world screams less

6:30 AM the alarm clock rings. Grumpily we slowly get up. Anja still has the earplugs in. Without them, it would have been unbearable with the train. Maybe it helps to keep the...

Scary stories with a happy ending

Looking out of the small window, morning is already announced. The weather is supposed to get worse and it's sticking to that. Dark clouds are passing by, no more sun. Duvet off...

Ring little bell... ring-a-ling-a-ling...

Planned As Planned

Another beautiful morning with a blue sky and sunshine over the bay of Squamish. How did we deserve this? Probably we did :) Our plan for today is to have no plan. In the morning...

BEAR IN AREA

We spend the night back on the mainland at a fairly crowded campground near Squamish, a climbing and mountain biking mecca. Just a few kilometers north of the ferry along the...

It crawls and tingles at the same time.

Getting up and the sun is shining...what a wonderful feeling. The huge trees and ferns let through little sunshine, but we can feel it. Breakfast, of course, is outside. It could...

Dumping; Baby

Friday is approaching. On Friday, registration for the race is taking place. We need to think a bit about how to manage our time so that we don't arrive too early, but also not...

Peanut butter - and everything runs smoothly, or maybe not at all

The Pacific was roaring all night and it is still doing so this morning - thankfully. The first surfers are already on their way to the beach by seven. Well then, we'll get up...

Nose closed and go for it

It’s half past six, seven degrees, and not a cloud in sight. Wow... Anja has to go out. Sunshine means Anja needs to go outside, even though it's so cozy under the blanket. Eat...

Shake shake

The morning is glorious. It smells of fresh greenery, it feels new, clean - like Proban. Yes, Proban, no coffee without the smell of gas. The camper has everything we need and...

The blog that was never meant to be

This is our 'No, I don’t think we’ll be writing a blog this time' blog. A warm welcome to everyone who has asked us and to everyone else, of course. What is different this time?...

The Opel has won. The two wheels have only traveled on the back seat until Monday evening, and now they are waiting neatly packed in a bicycle box in the storage room of the...

Yes, we have given up... not necessarily given up, but we have surrendered. In the morning, we set off from Ballyvaughan in drizzling rain towards Burren National Park. It's...

A day like the flag of Clare - blue-yellow

Weather as usual, curtains open in the morning...ohhhh what's that, blue sky? Eyes closed and open again - still there. Pure joy and at the same time fear that it might not...

By Ways and Detours

According to the weather forecast, today is supposed to be the most beautiful day of the week, sunny and rain-free. We no longer believe in the Irish weather app. We just trust...

Blue Spots - also - in the Sky

Today we again have 'help yourself Breakfast'. We're doing that and are ready to go around 10 o'clock. The bikes slept in the garden shed and are dry. By the way, that’s allowed...

Lovely Petie

We sneak home for breakfast hoping the house lady has already left for work. Lucky us, it's only the man who brings us coffee. Yes, the house lady Suzanne has given us something...

At breakfast, it's time to indulge in calories again. Today's goal is the Connor Pass, the highest pass in Ireland at 456 meters. Well, for Swiss people, it’s not that high, but...

Today's outfit: GORETEX style... once again... from head to toe... We planned to drive the Slea Head Drive today, a path about 50 km along the coast to the end of the Dingle...

'your room for tonight is unfortunately overbooked' ...that's what the friendly voice on Peter's answering machine sounds like. Exactly what you want to hear on a rainy morning....

Rain Pie

No nightly ghosts in the grand villa, just the grumpy landlord in the morning with black and white pudding. Our breakfast table is right in front of the large window with a view...
