13 Jun 2024 6 minute read 0 comments 7th Decade Redhead $0.03

I don't have any exact cycling stats because we still hadn't figured out the app yet. My explanation from the previous day's post was learned after we completed day eight's ride from Niederranna 3 to Linz, Austria. It was roughly 40 miles with a s...

Day Seven - Off down the Danube (If we'd only had that meeting.....)

I have no exact mileage information for this day because we used the tour company's GPS routing in their phone app and that information is no longer available to us.  Whatever the mileage was, we rode more than that.... and then some.  This post is r...

We look at history through the window of a country house

  The House of the Mayor of Katowice from 1820, yes, that's not a mistake. Today's city of Katowice in 1820 was still a village whose sheriff was the village head. Katowice was granted city rights only in 1865. The oldest district of Katowi...

Our first rest day and I'm glad to sleep in a bit, enjoy a leisurely breakfast knowing that the only thing on our agenda today is laundry and a walk to the old city to see the things my husband has on his bucket list here.    I really don't have a li...

Going to International Food Markets on a Lazy Saturday Afternoon

9 Jun 2024 2 minute read 2 comments WinterYeti $0.06

I always get a kick taking weekend trips to international markets. We have a number of them where I live, and it usually provides me a good assortment of things to look at, knick-knacks, interesting foods to try, and a chance to enjoy some favorites...

Are you the type who finds sitting still about as appealing as watching paint dry? Do you spend more time in airport lounges than your own living room? You might be thinking this bars you from starting a business right off the best, but you’d be dead...

This is a copy of a post that I first made on the Hive Blockchain on 07/06/24 (link here to original post). We were in North Wales last week for a few days break. My wife is Welsh, and while there, my father in-law told us about an old church that we...

Tabor to Hluboka nad Vltavou, 40.1 miles (65 km) 3 hours and 47 minutes, 2135 feet (651 m) of elevation (climbing).     Not exactly a 'flat' ride today, for sure. I did a lot of cussing.... and I recorded a few videos where I bemoaned having just co...

  Another day in Hot and steamy Singapore. That day we had quite ambitious plans to visit the biggest attractions of Singapore. Since Singapore is not very big, the main attractions are located relatively close to each other. The first one i...

Prague to Benesov,  40.5 miles (65 km), 4h 25 minutes, 2504 feet (763 m) of elevation gain (climbing).   I was woefully (and I mean WOEFULLY) unprepared. If you have read my other blog (60 Pounds by 60 Years), you know that I lost 70 pounds last year...
