  • Grand Cayman

    Grand Cayman is the largest and most cosmopolitan of the Cayman Islands. Nestled in the crystalline waters of the Caribbean, this sun-kissed paradise is renowned for its pristine white-sand beaches, and deep blue waters. Julie, Steve, and Jim experienced the colorful coral reefs and diverse marine life on a snorkeling excursion in Georgetown. Georgetown is a popular cruise port with four cruise ships docked today; Celebrity's Constellation and Apex as well as Carnival's Sunrise and Glory.

  • Castle San Felipe de Barajas

    Stepping into the historic grounds of Castle San Felipe de Barajas is like embarking on a journey through time. Perched majestically atop the hills of Cartagena, Colombia, this formidable fortress stands as a testament to the city's rich colonial past. The imposing stone walls and intricate labyrinth of tunnels evoke a sense of awe, providing a glimpse into the strategic brilliance of its 17th-century builders. As I wandered through the expansive courtyards and climbed the towering ramparts, the panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea and the city below unfolded, offering a breathtaking backdrop to the castle's storied history. The echoes of bygone battles seemed to linger in the air, narrating tales of resilience and conquest. Exploring the well-preserved dungeons and secret passages, I marveled at the engineering marvel that is Castle San Felipe de Barajas, a captivating blend of architectural prowess and historical significance.

  • Cartagena, Columbia

    Cartagena, located on the northern coast of Colombia, is a vibrant city with a rich history and a unique blend of cultures. We took a river boat and visited the historic center, known as the Old Town, which is a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is characterized by colorful colonial architecture, cobblestone streets, and well-preserved buildings. Next day we visited the fort, Castillo San Felipe de Barajas, which offers panoramic views of the city and the Caribbean Sea.

  • 2nd Sunday Car Show

    Every 2nd Sunday Promenade at Sunset Walk in Kissimmee FL hosts a car show for all types of vehicles. There was no rain in the area but it was a bit cloudy. The breeze made the temperature a very pleasant 75 degrees. This is the first time we've brought both the Alpine and the Jag and we were the only British cars participating. We'll be back.

  • Compton Abbas Vintage Fly-in

    While visiting Christopher and Carole in Dorset they took us to the Compton Abbas Airfield to watch the vintage planes fly-in. The weather was perfect and we had sausage rolls and cokes for lunch. As well as the planes there were several classic cars and bikes on display.

  • Sunbeam Alpine Update

    Having got the Alpine running and stopping again, and transported down to Florida, I am delighted to say that it is going to Tsikuris Classics in a couple of weeks to have some fine tuning work done. The carburetors will be removed and completely rebuilt and at the same time the inlet manifold will be bead-blasted (see pictures for staining) and the exhaust manifolds will be ceramic coated to reduce heat and vapor lock. Other items on the to-do list will be fixing the voltage regulator issue on the fuel and water temp gauges and stopping the exhaust rattle. I will be inquiring about a paint job but I'm not sure the budget will stretch to that this year.

  • Goodbye to Maxwell's Tavern

    After 13 years we were sad to have to say goodbye to all our friends, past and present, from Maxwell's Tavern in Waxhaw. Great people, great, food and lots of wonderful memories. I'm sure we'll be back sometime soon but Friday night's won't be the same for a while. Here's a few pictures from the past...
