Tales of the journeys of a piecemeal adventurer as a discontinuous narrative
Australia is the land of the wide open roads
Long ribbons of highway stretching across a vast land
Twisty little roads through the mountains and the back blocks
Connecting quirky little villages
Little rest areas along the road to make a cup of coffee out of the sun
And along the journey beautiful places to visit
And at the end of the day the sunset filling the sky with colour
As the Australian band the Triffids said – Its a wide open road
What biker can resist the high passes
In the clouds
By the icy glaciers
The winding roads up the mountain passes
The cobble stoned old San Gotthard pass my favourite of all
Crowned with its mountain eagle monument
And on a clear day the lakes, an amazing blue, pay tribute to the sky above them.
As I plan the next adventure
My head fills with images
Thoughts of last year
Special places
Unique in nature
That have left a lasting impression on me
One of nature’s sculptures
Carved by the wind and waves of the Bay of Biscay
The Praia de Augas Santas
The Bay of Cathedrals
Is certainly a natural masterpiece
A place of spiritual beauty and wonder.
