Lynn and Nick's web site

We are a couple in our 60s, living in Sydney, Australia. Nick retired in 2002, after many years working in university administration, and Lynn retired in 2008 from a senior position in Special Education in one of the Catholic dioceses in Sydney. We are now at a stage of our lives when we are able to travel.

In September, we set out on a 5-day tour of outback South Australia, and then flew to Uluru. There are many pictures here.

From mid-April to early July 2011, we travelled around Europe, mainly in Greece and France. Pictures of the adventure are here.

On 26 January 2011 (Australia Day), we took a voyage around Sydney Harbour on the Lady Hopetoun, a steamer built in 1902 as the Official Vessel of the Sydney Harbour Trust. She now operates as part of the Sydney Heritage Fleet. It was very enjoyable and, of course, we have some photos.

In October 2010, our first grandchild was born in Portland, Oregon. Obviously, we had to be there soon after, and we took the opportunity for a short holiday. We took some pictures.

From July to October 2009, we travelled around a number of European countries. Click here for pictures of our adventure. Or read Lynn's blog.

In May to July 2008, after Lynn's retirement, we travelled around the world: Hong Kong, two months in France, then home via the USA. Click here for many pictures of the journey.

In July 2007, we spent a fortnight on the west coast of the USA, attending the wedding of one of our sons. Click here for some pictures.

In May to July 2006, we visited Italy with a stopover in Hong Kong on the way back. We started at Palermo, then a ferry to Naples and Sorrento, and then travelled by car up the centre of Italy to Venice, then Cinque Terra and Tuscany, before a few days in Rome.

In May to July 2004, we visited France and Italy, driving from Paris to Venice by way of the Italian Lakes, then back via Tuscany and Provence. Click here for pictures and stories of the journey.

Our first big journey through Europe was in 2002. We spent a month in Britain, then ten days in Paris and Normandy, three weeks in Italy, a month in Greece, and finally a week in London. Click here for pictures and stories of the journey.

Earlier, Nick attended a conference in UK in 1997, and was joined by Lynn and son Cameron for a holiday mainly in UK. Pictures and story are here.
