Roll Over Ecover We've Landed on Eco Planet
03/28/09
Being Eco Friendly living in Southern Spain proves to be somewhat of a challenge. Having Gibraltar around the corner however has allowed me to continue using Ecover products, at a price!
Finally the Carrefour brand Eco Planet has filtered down to our local stores giving us an alter -
Don't Feed The Turtles
03/27/09
Something very close to my heart is the effect of plastic bags on the environment and nature. Christmas just past, Santa bought me a 'turtle friendly shopping bag' (www.turtlebags.co.uk) to assist in the cause.
After out living the Dinosaurs, Turtles are now having -

Our trip to Wasini Island and Kisite National Marine Park was another magical insight into just how beautiful Kenya and it's people are. Lillian at Dream Kenya Safaris ( www.dreamkenyasafaris.com ) was an absolute star for organising this at such short notice!

Kenya Exploring - A Walk to Mawene
03/12/09
We've had some great kiting sessions, although some short, which has been a great confidence booster for me. The shoulder did okay, each session lasted a bit longer, but man the rest of my body knew it had been off the water for 4 months! As the wind died down new adventures were cooked -
Kenya Kiting In Diani
03/12/09
The wind had been somewhat alluding us but eventually it arrived, and WOW what a spot! Mark rigged up his trusty kitecam and off we went. Diani beach runs as far as the eye can see with a reef break about 1km off shore, so flat on the inside with waves at the back, perfect! This is the most -

After settling in to our Banda (www.diani-banda.com) and adjusting to the heat (!) we decided to head back north to Mombasa for the day (Monday 16/02/09). We started at Fort Jesus, initially built by the Portuguese in 1593, but changed hands more than nine times between 1631 and 1875 under bl -
Jambo Kenya
