Evening…

Flight from ADL to SYD was relatively smooth.  

Ah… Here we are again.  All things being well, next post will be from the other side of the pond!

  

Ready or not Japan here we come!

This Saturday not only marks the start of the Tour de France, but the start of our Tour of Japan. Yes, we’re heading back, but taking our folding bikes. It will certainly be a difference experience, and a challenge. The luggage is slightly larger, packing has provided to be interesting. We will be updating the blog with photos of our experiences of food, and cycling in Japan!  

Exercise is good for you – all ages!

My aunt is 90, and my mum is 78. On Tuesday they both walked 9km. Yes folks you read that right… 9km. The key to achieving this is taking things at a slower pace.

We’ve taken the stairs slowly (where electronic options are not available – temples), and the wheelchair routes have proved to be very helpful.

We’ve even managed to get them walking around without their shoes – when absolutely required.

I hope we are just as good at their age.
