Ready for a brand new Adventure!

Its only a few days left before I head over to England for a long anticipated adventure of a life time.
I will try to take as many photos and do as many tours as possible.
I will indulge myself in the history of England, Wales and Scotland.
I will actually go to sites that I have only dreamt about.
I will try and share as much of my feelings and experiences with you as I can.

Anyone who has had a dream understands how I feel right now - knowing that shortly I will be fulfilling a life long desire to go to places like Glastonbury, Cornwall, Edinburgh, York and the Scottish Highlands.

I hope to learn more about ghost tours and how to deliver them by watching the 'experts' - I can imagine that delivering a ghost tour in a place such as London or York would be a challenge with people's expectations being so high.
Will I see a few ghosties?
I certainly hope so!!

I intend to visit all of the usual suspects - Edinburgh Vaults, Tower of London, Cornwall's Witch's Museum, Bodmin Jail and Moor, Highgate Cemetery, Glastonbury Tor and the list is never ending.

Please share this journey with me ...

Lemon Tree Passage Ghost - Local legend is alive and well

Lemon Tree Passage is a suburb of the Port Stephens local government area in the Hunter Region of New South Wales, Australia, located at the end of the Tilligerry Peninsula and surrounded by the waters of beautiful Port Stephens . Ever since I can remember there have been a few urban legends about a stretch of highway named Lemon Tree Passage Road. The story begins when a motor bike rider and his pillion passenger died after colliding with a four wheel drive killing both. This seems to be the source of the ghostly lights and apparition. These sort of events don't stay quiet in small townships. Stories spread fast often not ending up like they started. Every so often this urban legend makes a comeback with a number to people tempting fate and poking the ghost rider.

The Haunted History of the Hydro Majestic Hotel: Ghosts in the Mist of the Blue Mountains

Perched on a cliff’s edge at Medlow Bath with sweeping views of the Megalong Valley, the Hydro Majestic Hotel stands as a jewel of Edwardian architecture—and a hotspot for paranormal activity. Known for its luxurious past and distinctive Art Deco charm, this grand hotel also harbours chilling tales of tragic deaths, spectral figures, and eerie encounters that have become part of Blue Mountains folklore. A Brief History of the Hydro Majestic Established in 1904 by retail tycoon Mark Foy, the Hydro Majestic was originally designed as a hydropathic retreat, offering mineral water therapies and strict diets in the European spa tradition. Foy imported marble, mirrors, and even a dome from Chicago, installing them in the now-famous Casino Lobby and Grand Dining Room. Over the decades, the hotel transitioned into a glamorous high-society getaway, hosting politicians, socialites, and international performers. But beneath the glitz, strange events whispered through the hallways—events th...
