Tue, 17 May 2016 | By excellentadventure | Views [167]

Warhol and Banksy exhibition at Moco  today. Moco's a big, old house made into a gallery, so you wind up and down the stairs to each viewing area. It housed about 15 works by each artist - even Mike quite enjoyed it. POD of him running with the ... Read more >

Mon, 16 May 2016 | By excellentadventure | Views [213]

Day 108 v2: Success and failure

Fri, 13 May 2016 | By excellentadventure | Views [251] | Comments [3]

We took the bikes on the train with us to Den Haag this time. Thought we might head seaside after we picked up our Russian Visas (still not knowing if we'd been successful applicants at this stage). Somehow we got out of paying 50 euros (each) for not ... Read more >

Day 105 v2: Hot Pod

Tue, 10 May 2016 | By excellentadventure | Views [232]

I experienced a growing yoga fad: Hot Pod . It's vinyasa but in a warm, dark, giant, purple, jumping castle, tent thingy. It's about 37 degrees so you get your sweat on and I guess the idea is both gimmick and convenience for teachers to transport it ... Read more >
