We did a lot of traveling in 2016. I retired from Lancaster University in March, and we returned to Canada after twelve years in the UK in June. Yoke-Sum started teaching at Alberta University of the Arts in the fall.
Between visiting family in Singapore and Malaysia for the Chinese New Year and extending the trip to Cambodia and Vietnam (February), and moving back to Canada, we spent a month in Prague and made short work-related trips to Frankfurt, Berlin, Warsaw, and Athens. We combined the Greek trip with a few days vacation on the island of Andros (June 1–12).
By way of saying farewell to Blighty, we took a short holiday in Cornwall, a part of England neither of us had ever previously visited (May 20–26). The landscapes were beautiful, though the weather was often not. The anti-EU signs everywhere confirmed that it was time for people like us to GTF out.
These photos are unashamed holiday snapshots from Cornwall and Greece.
