. . . with or without custard ?

[Manoverboard]

Sipping a glass, or was it two, of chilled Sauvignon Blanc in Bloubergstrand looking straight across the Bay at Table Mountain in Cape Town, South Africa.

[oldbluefox]

Oh, most definitely custard although not much room in the dish with three slices of roly poly! Oink! Oink!

Ephesus was out of this world
... and Pompeii unbelievable
.. and Ny Alesund
... and icebergs off Greenland
... geysers in Iceland and the smell of sulphur
.. and Spotted d**k, with custard.

Sailing into Sydney Harbour tops the list for me, never thought I'd get to do that and did shed a tear or three.

Not on a cruise ship, but on the Ferry from Rose Bay to Circular Quay, came round the peninsular from Double Bay, saw the Sydney Opera House and the Harbour Bridge and the tears fell.
Others for me are
Flying over the Maldives
Snorkelling on the Great Barrier Reef
The day I married my wonderful husband
The birth of my 3 children and grandchildren
