About Me

Dave Bourne
Welcome to Papa’s Travel Blog. Although an avid amateur nature and wildlife photographer for almost forty years it was only twelve years ago, when I finally went digital, that I had the idea to start emailing home blogs about our adventures to our grandkids. The list grew over the years as family and friends asked to be included in the adventures. Hence, I have decided to actually start a blog about not only our travels but also covering the wildlife and nature we have discovered along our journey. Hope you enjoy following along. Dave
