Sid and Doris Bonkers and their Epic Journeys

Vamos! Arriving in Mexico City

In which Sid and Doris acclimatise to Mexico City though Sid is as relaxed as an electric fence.

Or: How to spend 15 days in Mexico at short notice, with no help from travel agents.

In which Sid and Doris come up with a road trip plan that is complicated even by their standards.

Reflecting on the journey, on sailing, and on the ideal boat.

In which Sid and Doris hope to beat the weather home.

In which Sid and Doris ignore a warning and get their comeuppance.

I took a photo of the top of Sid’s head after a week on board, but he insisted I deleted it.

In which Sid and Doris motor back to the Sound of Mull, watch anglers catch giant skate and join Morvern with St Kilda.

In which Sid and Doris go through narrow channels to look for puffins and visit another island mooring.

It is difficult for me to describe the Sea of the Hebrides. I’ve tried photographing it for you, but the photographs don’t tell the story either.
