Yet another visit to Hong Kong
Time flies as you get older, and for me it is no different - I've just returned from yet another visit to Hong Kong. This time around my young son was also along for the ride, with twelve days spent visiting family and sightseeing around Hong Kong, plus a short stopover on the way back home from somewhere else.
I still managed to visit a number of new places in Hong Kong - the village of Tai O on Lantau Island, Shek O beach on Hong Kong Island, a visit to the quiet island of Peng Chau, and a night spent in a hotel overlooking Hong (...)
Playing catchup after a trip to New South Wales
In October I spent a week up in New South Wales, and managed to see some trains along the way - the photos of which I have just finished uploading!
As to what I saw:
Photos from my 2013 trip to China
It has taken me almost two years, but I have finally finished uploading the photographs I took on my 2013 trip to China.
I spent a week on the 'mainland' visiting the cities of Shanghai, Beijing and Xi'an:
- Day 1: arrive into Shanghai from Melbourne, riding the Maglev from Pudong Airport, and checking out The Bund.
- Day 2: Visiting Pudong, riding the Shanghai Metro, inspecting the rubber-tyred Translor tram, and watching mainline trains at Shanghai Railway Station.
- Day 3: Shanghai to Beijing by high-speed train, and exploring the Beijing Metro
- Day 4: Template of Heaven.
Short trip to the Gold Coast
Last week I paid a short visit to the Gold Coast - you can find my photos from the day here.
Trip to Adelaide, plus R707 on the side
I've been busy for the past few weeks, but I've finally caught up with my backlog of photos.
First up - a long weekend featuring Melbourne to Adelaide on The Overland, a day exploring Adelaide, and finally catching The Overland back east.
And I also went out to see R707, R711 and R761 run a triple headed steam special to Seymour the week after.

Back on track after a few weeks off
After a busy few weeks of visiting Queensland, getting married and heading off on my honeymoon, I've finally cleared my backlog of photos taken in Melbourne during April. You can find them in the normal place, on the Recent Uploads page.
Coming up at a future date will be my photos from Queensland!
My backlog finally cleared
After a busy few weeks, I've finally caught up with my backlog of photo uploads. You can find them in the normal place, on the Recent Uploads page.
My photos are now four times the size!
After years of uploading photos that were only 1024 by 683 pixels in size, I have now switched to the much larger 1920 by 1280 resolution - the same size as 'high definition' video. Hopefully this makes viewing my photos better for anyone using a larger screen.
