We have had many trips to Chamonix which sits at the base of Mont Blanc
in the French Alps.
We normally say at Les
Balcons Du Savoy which has great furnished apartments.
Fly into Geneva in Switzerland and get a ride to Chamonix from Philippe
Rochaix at Alp Taxi Rochaix +33 (0)4 50 54 00 48. Philippe has always
been ultra-reliable for us, is very friendly and speaks English well.
And for the best skiing experience off-piste, we have used Alain
Geloen, one of the area's most knowledgeable guides. You can also go
with him all over the world rock climbing in the summer months.

In the last few years we have spent a number of trips to Fripp Island in
South Carolina. In fact, this is the location for our home away from
homes.
Beautiful beaches, golf and good food. Oh, and not a lot of people
either.
The island is at the end of a line of islands, just past the Hunting
Island State Park, where the picture of Simon was taken (in the summer
1999 at age 3).
For more information, you can check out Fripp
Island Resort. Click on the picture for more pictures of Fripp
Island vacations. |

We have also been to the South Pacific a number of times - Simon went
twice before he was even 2 years old!
We have been going to the island of Moorea, near Tahiti, since the
1980's, to the Club
Bali Hai on beautiful Cook's Bay.
You can go to our Moorea trip photos by clicking on any of the photos

We also had a great trip to the United Kingdom, in the summer of 2001, taking in London, the
South East as well as the majestic countryside and coast of Mid Wales
including the Barmouth area and Snowdonia National Park.
We spent a week in the London area and the South East. From there, we
traveled to the Mid-Wales coast where we stayed for another week. We were
joined by my high-school friends Mary Turpin and Sian Lloyd Jones. Mary
brought her family of Joe and Nia, plus her husband Graham came for one
night. Then it was on to Mary and Graham's farm in Tregynon, near Newtown
for a few days before returning the the London area to cap it off.
