Our Journey
Upgrades for Growing Kids & Expanding Adventures
As our family adventures continue to evolve, so do our needs. With the kids growing rapidly and needing more space, it was time for a few adjustments. Out with the old roof-top cargo basket and in with an iKamper roof-top tent! From tackling ladder issues and rust...
Life on the Road
CAMPING Overlanding is all about experiencing life in the great outdoors, finding that perfect camp spot in quiet isolation while watching the sun go down with you’re favourite drink is what it’s all about. But it’s not always like this, depending on which country...
Idaho, more than just potatoes
Leaving Yellowstone we retraced our route South before turning off towards Idaho Falls. We spent one night at the Snake River RV park for hot showers, laundry & fill up on fresh water. An interesting place, more like a permanent neighbourhood of RV's than people...
Yellowstone National Park
10 May It's going to be a beautiful day, cold, but no point complaining, we're bundled up in the cab with blankets wearing everything warm that we own. Tim started Bruce early to warm the engine which takes a good 25 mins before the heater starts working. After...
Wondering through Wyoming
May 8th, 2021 Adios Utah! This morning we crossed into Wyoming. Excited for the change in scenery, but not the cold. As we make our way towards the valley of Jackson Hole, a tidbit if roadside information tells us we are following along the migration route of the...
Dinosaur National Monument
6 May Like most kids, Charley & Jaxon have a fascination with dinosaurs. They know many of their names and must have at least a dozen small plastic Dino toys with them in the truck. Which is why we didn't tell them about this place until just 10 days ago. We...
Arches National Park
4 May Located in Eastern Utah just South of the Colorado River. Another corner of sunbaked earth, that typically receives only 10 inches of rain fall annually. In 1971 was declared a National Park. Approximately 1.5 million people flow through the gates annually....
Moab, Utah
May 2nd Sandwiched between Arches and Canyonlands National Parks, lies the town of Moab. Much has changed since I was here 15 years ago. Once a quiet town with a few bike stores, souvenir shops & hippie cafes. Moab's main...
Learning to Kiteboard – by Charley
When Mum & Dad asked if I wanted to learn how to kiteboard this winter, I was a little surprised. I thought I was too young, I hadn't really even thought about it. So I said sure! My Mum & Dad go out kiting every day down here, and love it. My...
Mesa Verde & Newspaper Rock
Valley of the Gods April 28 From Valley of the Gods we could clearly see Monument Valley. All part of the same red-sand desert, maybe, as the crow flies, 20km apart. Just tribal lines dividing them. Those iconic buttes, fins and cliffs have featured in more than 60...
Capitol Reef, Escalante & Valley of the Gods
Escalante National Monument 28th April The Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument spans across nearly one million acres of public lands and contains three distinct units: Grand Staircase, Kaiparowits, and Escalante Canyon. From its spectacular Grand...
Hurricane, Zion & Bryce Canyon National Parks
Hurricane April 23 Our friends Pat & Brenda Montani told us about Hurricane, pronounced ‘Hurkin’, Pat loved the mountain biking here, said it was more scenic than Moab, and recommended we check it out. Sadly, as I write, Pat is in the Squamish Hospice. How...
Loreto. The last frontier & MX5 North
April 1 Pulling into Loreto is kinda like coming home. We’ve been here many times, the last was on our way down the Baja just 16 months ago. Jeff & Tracy made us feel welcome, opening their home to us. The kids quickly dumped their bag &...
Adios La Ventana!
March 30 Looking back on our time spent in La Ventana, I am filled with a deep sense of gratitude and happiness. This little corner of Baja has been our home for the past 5 months and we have enjoyed every moment. Am grateful for the freedom we have...
The Mighty Pacific Grey Whales
March 5th From January through to the end of March the mighty Grey Whale annual migration passes along Mexico’s Baja Peninsular. Dotted along the coastline lie protective inlets, where expectant mothers seek the warmer & safer waters to give birth. These inlets...
La Ventana continued…
It’s cold, Baja in January is cold. Chilly North winds that are so much fun to kite in, aren’t as much fun to ‘live’ in. We’ve pulled on the puffy jackets, wool hat and Ugg boots. Instead of a cold beer after kiting, it’s a hot cuppa tea. I’m more grateful...
Fishing Trip to the Island – by Jaxon
From our camp at the beach we can see a big brown island. It’s too far away to swim to, but in Dean’s boat we were there in about a half an hour. We left the boat launch at 8am, to go fishing out in the bay and be back in time to go to school at 12...
The day I caught my first fish – by Jaxon
January 12, 2021 I love fishing and I go as much as I can. I would rather go fishing than do boring school work. I like fishing in the mornings and casting from the beach, sometimes I take the paddle board out and try to catch fish, but I haven't caught one yet. Our...
A kids day in La Ventana – by Charley
November 2020 I always wake early, i'm usually the first one awake, usually because I have to pee. Once I'm awake I can't go back to sleep, at first, in November it was light early so I would sneak out and go and see if the other kids were up, I think it's close to or...
Our La Ventana Bubble
November While the global pandemic rages on we sit in our beautiful beach bubble feeling only slightly affected by it all. While USA is spinning compass, our biggest decision of the day is which size kite to pump. While Canada's Covid curve is flattened vertically, we...
Back to Baja & Day 365
October 17 Mainland to Baja Crossing Baja Ferries operations are complicated, nothing is simple or straight forward, but we’re loaded and happy to make the last crossing of the next 3 days. Happy to pass an uncomfortable night in the brightly lit, cold...
My year on the road – by Charley
I remember when we left home, the days were starting to get cooler which meant Winter was on its way, it was October 29th 2019. We had been waiting for this day for a very long time, actually for as long as I can remember Mum & Dad talked about us driving to...
Chihuahua
October 9 - 16 The long, straight, flat road from Durango to Hidalgo del Parral, made for an easy drive, but once we turned West on to smaller roads the terrain changed again revealing more of Mexico's diverse countryside. Out the window we see bony horses and...
Durango’s Mexiquillo, Devils Backbone & Baluarte Bridge
September 26 - October 9th Durango must be the Scorpion capital of Mexico. Walking the markets, everything is about the Scorpion wether it's printed on a t-shirt, encased in a belt buckle or fermenting in a bottle of Mezcal the nasty looking arachnid is everywhere....
Guanajuato has Iguanas and a snake! – by Jaxon
I really like visiting Guanajuato because we went for a walk for most of the days and one day we cam across a man carrying 2 Iguanas on his shoulders walking down the street. And we asked the man if we could hold them, he said yes if we gave him 20 pesos. Charley's...
Leon & Zacatecas
September 21 - 23 Stopping in Leon for just a couple of hours, we found a large parking spot for the truck 5 mins walk from Zone Piel or Leather District. Here the labyrinth of markets is enough to make you head spin. Every store and stall owner beaconing...
Independence Day & Guanajuato City
Sept 13 - 17 Back on September 16th, 1810, México gained their independence from 300 yrs of Spanish rule. On the eve of every anniversary, México is alight with fireworks. We decided to return to San Miguel de Allende to join our friends Mark & Todd in...
Tolantongo River & Pools – by Charley
September 8 - 11 I would describe Tolantongo as a very beautiful place. It's definitely a must visit because the water in the river is very warm and it's a turquoise blue in colour. You can only go so far down river before you come across a red tape line going across...
Tolantongo
Sept 9 These roads make me feel like we're back in Guatemala, steep climbs mountain ridges with 360' views. Tight, twisty, steep and narrow lanes, one lapse in concentration and were done for. Rains have caused a few minor mud & rock slides onto the road, one...
Rio Verde to Tolantongo
Sept 4 - 12th From the dry desert highland heat to the low land jungle humidity, descending we could feel the moisture in the air. Javier the owner of the orange grove/campground said we were his first guests in 4 months. Understandably a little hungry for camping...
San Miguel de Allende – Real de Catorce
September 1 - 4 With the windows down and wind in our hair, we pointed Bruce North and into new territory. Excited to be moving on we enjoy the drive taking the ‘Libre’ or Free roads towards the state and city of San Luis Potosi. The long straight flat...
Six weeks in San Miguel de Allende
July 14 - August 31st We had planned was to head back into the USA, but have since decided to return to San Miguel de Allende, aka SMA and rent a house. Casa Cordelli is perched above town with panoramic views, swimming pool and trampoline. So, no it didn't take long...
My 7th Birthday
August 23rd is my real birthday, but we had my party on the day before which was the 22nd, it was a surprise party and I was surprised! We had it at the bull ring by Jayla’s holiday house in San Miguel. We had a bouncy castle, a horse to ride, a superman...
My time in San Miguel de Allende
For half of July and all of August we rented this really nice house that has a curvy shaped swimming pool and a tv that we never get to use. I sleep in my Mum & Dad's room, on a small bed that is very comfy. We have a big wide pool and a trampoline that we get to...
I like Guatemala because…
I got to drive Bruce on the big bumpy roads. I had to sit on dad's lap because I couldn't reach the pedals, so I did the steering and Dad did the speed and brakes. I like driving her, when I'm older and bigger I'll drive her again. Guatemala has lots of those falling...
Why you shouldn’t Penguin dive in a shallow swimming pool
July 25th So yesterday I was swimming in our pool at Casa Cordelli where we are staying. I've been swimming in this pool everyday since we've been here, and i'm a really good swimmer. But.... this time, my brother and I were doing some different kind of dives than we...
Sierra Gorda – San Miguel
July 5 - 11 On Ioverlander, Palma Sola Club is marked as an orange farm / campground and was highly recommended by our friend Phil who also stayed there. From the street delicious aromas are wafting out of the small roadside Comedor (restaurant). Climbing down from...
LESSONS LEARNED
12 LESSONS LEARNED FROM LIFE ON THE ROAD 1. Get up early, drive early so you can set up camp early. It’s usually cooler and leave time for the unexpected. 2. Learn the language, if even a little, locals are happy to help when you make an effort, every day you’ll...
Travelling during Covid, San Miguel.
June 28 - 4 July. I'd read that San Miguel de Allende was an old colonial town surrounding a Cathedral, and was a must see. Had we not turned around when we did we would have missed out on one of Mexico's gems. We are parked at the workshop of Euro-Latino Racing on...
Charley’s B’day, Oaxaca & Earthquakes
June 20 - 28th For the past 40+ days, Charley has been counting down to her birthday, I can't believe she's about to turn 9! Oh what to do to make this day extra special? Being away from friends and Covid causing all the lockdowns we are unable to go...
Villa del Sol – Oaxaca
June 3 - 19 The same Tropical storm that threatened us in Guatemala has grown in size and is now reaching from El Salvador to Mexico. All around us the skies are heavy dark and grey, but directly above a patch of blue sky remains, kinda makes me think we are in the...

Surviving Covid-19 on Lake Atitlan. April 29 – May 24
Lockdown Day 55, sometime late April. Life here is all becoming a big blur with each day just like the other. Good news is that we have use of the lake again, limited for just swimming & jumping off the dock, but it feels really great to be back in the water. The...

Homeschool, Roadschool or Worldschool.
One of the considerations of taking our family on the road for an extended period of time is the children's education, the obvious conclusion is to homeschool. Having no experience with teaching, we consulted with our school Principal for guidance. He highly...

Stuck in Guatemala, April 20 – 28th

Guatemala – by Charley
Well, when left Belize, they took my temperature at the border place when we crossed into Guatemala. They were looking to see if I had the Corona Virus, but I didn't, my temperature was normal and I got another stamp in my passport. Our first stop in Guatemala was in...
Lockdown in Guatemala, April 1 – 19th
The past 2 weeks have passed by surprisingly fast, though the hours seem to sometimes drag. Judging by reports online it appears that the virus hasn't yet reached its peak in Central America, numbers are slowly but steadily climbing & how accurate they are is...
San Marcos & Quarantine March 16 – 31
San Marcos is a pretty lake side town with dual identities. The Mayan community of fisherman & farmers, who have been here since the beginning of their time and the travellers who come here seeking a 'higher sense of being'. Believed to be a place of special...
Belize
"I went hiking in the jungle. It was very colourful, the roots of the trees were very thick, if we tried to chop the roots in half it wouldn't work. The roots are too thick. " "My family and I went on a hike to find some birds, on the way we got close to the top of...
Mexico – by Jaxon 6.5 yrs
"The first picture is of Charley & I that time when Bruce got stuck in all that mud and we were supposed to stay in the truck, but we got bored and put our feet in the mud, it was cold and wet and we got it all over the inside of the truck. The next three photos...
Chichi – San Marcos, March 15.
Bruce behaved himself for the rest of the day. Passing along the mountain side towns, they all started to blurr one into another, as thoughts of how Covid-19 is causing the world to shut down. We've just had word that Whistler & Blackcomb mountains are closed for...
Lanquin – Chichicastenango, March 13 – 14
Feeling a little antsy about the virus and hearing of the border closing, we are keen to get to San Marcos asap. We left Lanquin gas station at 8am, just in time to sneak through the first part of the road works, but were stopped for a half hour at the next. Climbing...
Semuc Champey, March 12
At 10pm last night the music & lights went off and the gas station fell into darkness. The next morning when chatting to the gas station manager about getting over to see Semuc Champey, he recommended we take a private vehicle and that we could leave the truck...
Laguna las Pozas to Lanquin. March 10 – 11th.
For some reason I’m in the habit of waking at 3am, it could have something to do with that gin & tonic and going to bed early. Opening the computer I spent an hour editing photos before falling back to sleep till half six when I woke to the sound of a tuk-tuk...
Mexico – by Charley
I would say it’s a pretty cool experience to actually be in Mexico. I really like all the bright colours, especially at Christmas time. It’s very peaceful here with beautiful sunsets, sometimes we are up early enough to see the sun rise too, it’s usually a lot cooler...
Guatemala Border, Tikal to Flores, March 8 – 9th.
All we've heard about border crossings is that it's a big confusing, time consuming mess. So far, touch wood, each border crossing has been a piece of cake. Even with our very limited understanding of Spanish, which sounds different each country we pass through and in...
Caye Caulker & Mayflower Bocawina National park. March 6 – 8
Just off the coast lies the Belize Barrier Reef, a string of white sand & coral islands in the Caribbean Sea that make up the second largest reef in the world. A 1hr boat ride landed us on the wharf of Caye Caulker a fairly well established looking island, known...
Belize, March 2
Mexico to Belize Border Crossing Leaving Mexico was straightforward, we arrived at the border offices at 9am, no line ups or tour bus loads to deal with. First we surrendered our visitors visas & paid the exit taxes, (adults only) and got the exit stamp in the...
Driving in Mexico
Border crossing, at San Ysidro. - A new multi lane entry point for passport control coming from the US into Mexico. We were directed to the large x-ray machine for the truck first, from there we were directed to park at what appeared to be the bus depot, to go inside...
Mayan Rivera, Lake Bacala & Chetumal Feb 26 – March 1st
I knew that Cancun and the Mayan Riviera is a popular destination because of the beautiful white sand beaches and turquoise waters. So it was no surprise to see all the grand entrances to each resort as we drove through. Shoulder to shoulder resorts dominate the...
Izamal, El Cuyo & Isla Blanca, Feb 21 – 26
The entire town of Izamal is painted yellow, including the old, simple stone, occupied convent is. Steeped in history, this pre-columbian Mayan city was significant politically and religiously. Today it's more of a tourist attraction. Decorated horse drawn buggies...
Ruins, Waterfalls and Cenotes of Yucatan. Feb 5 – 20
From one extreme to another, as steep and windy as the Chiapas roads are, the Yucatan’s are long straight. It’s a relief for driving and we can often go 20km without crossing a tope! The Yucatan is well known for ancient ruins, stunning cenotes and white sandy...
Fresh water pools, Santo Cristobal & 200+ topes. Feb 3 – 4th
Leaving Hierve el Agua we continued towards the Chiapas region, the road is still windy, temps are getting hotter which means earlier starts. Distances are given on the gps but times tend to vary greatly and remain somewhat unpredictable and double the...
Macaws, Worlds Largest Tree & Hierve el Agua. Jan 29 – 2 Feb
Tim had read on Ioverlander about the Guacamaya Verdes, the Green Military Macaws. That it was a guided six hour round trip hike to the place where the Macaws return to each night to sleep. Well this family of bird lovers agreed it was a must do. So i fired off an...
Puebla & Cholula, Jan 26 – 28
Puebla has been on my must see list of places for Mexico and I was excited to be visiting. I stupidly thought it was a smaller town, which it is compared to CDMX, but as we came in from the upper highway, i was blown away by just how big it was here. Upon arrival we...
Teotihuacan Pyramids & CDMX Jan 21 – 25
Ioverlander recommended we stay at El Rancho RV park, located a short distance from the Pyramids just North East of the city. Taking the toll road, we managed to navigate our way, but not with out error as coming through the toll road with multiple on ramps and fast...
Monarch Butterfly Reserve 19 – 20 January
I can’t say for certain where we are heading, other than on the map it’s marked as the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve, no major towns near by, is probably 100km West of Mexico City. From Morelia we take the smaller roads East, driving is slow as we keep...
Urupan, 17- 18 January.
Volcanoes & buried villages at 2,500 meters. Hoping for a break from the heat we headed inland to the volcanic and avocado growing region of Urupan in search of the buried church we'd read about. Following advice, we took the toll roads for safety, and a...

Birds of Baja – By Charley & Jaxon
Dec 14th 2019 I have seen so many different types of birds since we left home. Baja is quite different from Canada, so naturally they will have different birds here, We travel with my bird book, you know, the one with the owl on the front. It’s got lots...
Costa Aquilla Jan 13 – 15
The further South we go the hotter and more humid it’s getting. Strategy is now to be turning wheels as early as possible. Winter time, so it’s dark till 7:30am, which does feel kinda odd in this heat, we are managing an 8:30am start. The cool...
Topolombpo to Tokkiero, January 2nd – 14th.
Mainland Mexico, our first time here, we had heard it was very different from Baja and it is in every way, except for the same crazy drivers and never ending Tope's. Arriving off the boat at 11pm, we spent the night parked up inside the port of Topolobampo,...
La Ventana Dec 13 – Jan 1, 2020
La Ventana is just 40 mins drive South of La Paz. On the coast of another massive sandy bay, originally a fishing village, has transformed slowly over the past 20 years into a kiteboarding/windsurfing paradise for many Canadians & Americans. As the...
Lovely Loreto & San Juanico
December 3 - 8 Loreto is a quaint coastal town, and home to another Mission. Pulling in around mid day, we parked up on an empty shaded lot and went for a walk through the old part of town. Stopping in at the Mission, we learn it was built in 1697,...
Charley’s Sailing trip, BVI
November 7 - 21, 2019 Our sailboat was a monohull, which is a boat that has just one normal shaped body. It was 44 feet long & had 3 cabins below deck. The kitchen was small but not as small as the bathroom! When I sat on the loo my knees nearly touched the...
Southern California to Baja’s truck sucking mud!
November 27th It's time to get on the road, but first wanted to say a BIG thank you to Auntie Rita who happily drove us around showing us the sights, beaches & sunsets for helping us fetch supplies, let us fill her house & do all our laundry. You're the best!...
Sailing British Virgin Islands, November 7 – 21
Our midnight flight from LAX to Miami, then on to St Thomas was happily uneventful. Flying intercontinental USA isn’t anything special, American Airlines are the Greyhound of the sky. Flying just isn’t like it used to be, absolute minimal service, any...
BVI Sailing Adventures – By Jaxon. November 7 – 21
My family and I went for a sail across the BVI lake, on a sail boat for two whole weeks. I liked being on the boat and swimming off the back of it. Mum's taking a photo, of our family when we were sailing in the BVI, I got to swim everyday, the water was sometimes...

Disneyland – by Charley
I knew I was going to have so much fun, I just loved everything about it, except Space Mountain, because it was my first rollercoaster and it was in the DARK, mum and dad didn’t know what they were taking me on. The other one I didn’t like AT ALL was Guardians...
Disneyland – by Jaxon

Nitinat Adventures – by Charley
So Nitinat is on Vancouver Island, we have to take the ferry there then drive down a long dirt road that's full of potholes. I’ve been going every summer since I was born. I get really excited to go there. I get to make lots of friends, swing on the big...
Spring in Whistler
It's been an extremely busy year, our Baja trip seems like a life time ago. Last time I posted, I had resolved to get us on the road by Summer. We have a plan, and so far - so good. I was lucky enough to sell the hair salon to a great gal who will do a great job of...

My trip to Baja – by Jaxon
In La Ventana, I found 2 lizards, 1 snake and a cow bone. Jim said is was a California Night Snake, he was just a baby, we put him in a large container, with big air holes so he could breathe. We put lots of branches, rocks, gravel and leaves and ants so he could eat....
Baja getaway – March 2019
Our winter has been unusually cold, a bitter 'arctic vortex', that just wouldn't let up. Tim had been working out side far more than he'd like, so when I suggested we sneak away for a week kiting in Baja he didn't need too much convincing. Couple of weeks later we...
Charley, Grade 2.
“Hi, my name is Charley, and I love birds. I'm 7yrs old and I go to Myrtle Philip School too. What’s your teacher’s name? “Mrs Makelke-Way, she's really nice, not strict” What’s the best part of being in school? “I am learning lots, we have been learning about...

WHISTLER MOUNTAIN – PEAK CHAIR & ICE WALL HIKE.
Sunday is always Family Day, and living in Whistler there is no shortage of things to do. We had been meaning to head up the mountain to check out the ‘ice walls’. Each spring the mountain cuts in the summer road, revealing the true depth of the accumulated snow...
