Despite the lengthy sleep we both had, we didn’t feel that rested when we woke. Our theory was that the heat of the room was causing us restless sleep. We showered and went down for breakfast (one last dose of Trump news) then came back and started packing up our room since we were checking…

We woke to our alarm, carefully planned so that we would be on the mountain right at opening time to get our ski gear and lift tickets. We were both feeling seedy at best, violently ill at worst, but it got better once we got some food into us. Nothing like a dirty waffle in…

Another super lazy start to the morning, getting up only to make sure we got to the hotel brekkie before it closed at 9am. What a winner breakfast was. It was continental, which meant we both had boiled eggs on toasted English muffins, orange juice and a waffle doused in maple syrup. We were definitely…

Snow! And lots of it! I awoke to a noise on top of the van and looked out the window. When I saw the winter wonderland, I shouted at Kevin to look outside. Everything was covered in white! The noise I’d heard was snow shifting off my roof. The hail had obviously turned into a…

Only four hours sleep, but we had plans to ride the mountains of Sedona a second time so we were up with the sun. Dan and I were anyway. The luxury of Air Force One was keeping Kevin comfortable a bit further into the morning. Dan and I emerged from the van to find that…

We had a very laid back morning. We slept in until the bright sun became too much. Kevin lingered in bed while I set up our outdoor setting and did some blogging. We sat in the sun to combat the cool breeze while we had breakfast. After his coffee, Kevin entertained himself on the internet…

We had an alarm set this morning so we could be at the bike shop by 9am to pick up Kevin’s rental and make the most of the day, but it wasn’t to be. When I was wandering back from my morning bathroom stop, Kevin was standing at the back of the Astro and he…

We woke to a hot van at around 8:30am and got up straightaway. It took a few goes to be ready to go into the bar for breakfast, me having to wet my hair to make it look respectable and Kevin having to change his shirt for one that didn’t have BBQ sauce stain on…

We both had a good sleep in (Kevin more so than me) before getting up and making breakfast. Kevin pretty much knows where everything is in the van now so he could make his own coffee. He’s adjusting well to van life. Just before we left, Kevin wandered off to use the port-a-loo while I…

Despite Kevin’s intentions last night, he enjoyed a sleep in while I turned over the giant log on the fire to create some morning flames. We’d put this massive log over the struggling fire before bed last night thinking there was no way it would burn, but it went up in some flames because it…
