Saturday, 29th October/Sunday, 30th October 2005 – Essen, Germany Friday was the usual routine once we made it to the airport – we headed straight to the seafood place for a meal, then walked to the gate just in time for our flight to Düsseldorf. At the other end it was a quick drive to…

Travel 2004 – Valencia, Spain
Friday 15th – Monday 18th October 2004 – Valencia, Spain We made a reasonably timed start, getting away from the filling station in Mougins at 9:00, which is just after the rush hour traffic dies down.

Travel 2003 – Macau, Day 7
Friday, 14th November 2003 – Macau, Day 7 Once again we went out track side, at least in the morning, spending some time at Sao Francisco Bend, which is interesting if somewhat distant from the actual track action.

Tuesday, 11th November 2003 – Macau, Day 4 Today we took the coach tour of the islands, as laid on by the Grand Prix Committee. The bus was a long way from full, with a couple from one of the other hotels, who seemed pretty unimpressed by everything, and an older lady who turned out…
Travel 2003 – Macau, Day 1
Saturday, 8th Nov 2003 – Macau, Day 1 We arrived a bit hung-over from the sleeping tablets, though nowhere near as bad as we would have been without them I suspect. The people from Estoril Tours scraped us up at the arrivals area in Hong Kong airport, and shepherded us to the shuttle bus they…
