We’d love to go to Gibraltar, the British city at the southern tip of Spain facing Africa.

I want to see the Rock of Gibraltar, but until then, Gibraltar Rd in Bowral will have to do.

It’ll cost a fortune to get the dog there…

Go the Aussies!

Next time we’re in England at Christmas time, keen to see a rugby match.

Until then, Twickenham Cl in Normanhurst will have to do.

We’ve never been to Spain, but we’re keen to go, especially to Seville and surrounds.

The birthplace of flamenco, and famous for its mix of Islamic and Catholic architectural styles.

In the meantime, Seville St at Lane Cove will have to do!

Palermo, one of the main cities in Sicily. We’re looking forward to visiting in June this year, but in the meantime, Palermo Cl in Allambie Heights will have to do.

We visited England (well, London really) but next time we go to the UK we’re keen to get up to Scotland.

In the meantime, Edinburgh Rd in Castlecrag will have to do.

Very keen to get to Oslo, either in the dead of winter to experience that endless dark and cold, or the height of summer to experience the opposite.

In the meantime, a stroll down Oslo St in Marsfield will have to do!

We went to Italy for a month a few years ago, and loved it.

This year we’re off to Sicily, and look forward to visiting Messina.

In the meantime, a gelato will have to do!

We are really keen to visit Gallipoli in the next few years. A definite bucket list item.

In the meantime, a stroll down Gallipoli St in Concord will have to do!

Rue St Jacques

On our first ever European trip in 2013, Robyn and I flew in to Paris and stayed at an apartment on Rue St Jacques, midway between the Sorbonne and Notre Dame Cathedral.

(Stuart Greene, we will never forget that recommendation!)

We were like school children, giddy with excitement.

Paris didn’t disappoint.

This Jacques at Chatswood didn’t quite measure up, but hey, who can complain about a walk in the Sydney sunshine during a winter COVID lockdown.

(And yes, legal; Chatswood is within our 10km travel bubble.)

A lovely walk this weekend to Buckingham Palace Rd.

Behind Killara golf course, a beautiful tree tunnel leads to a pretty street with some huge blocks.
