America/England/Thailand - 2004

This was a real beauty - an around the world ticket, visiting three cities in America and on to England to visit family and friends and then on the Thailand.

America

This was a first for us both, visiting Los Angeles, Las Vegas and New York. We had 5 days in each city (not enough to see everything, of course but still interesting) and took in as much as we could.

England/Ireland 2002

Our (my partner and I) first foray back into Travel after several years (we both had done a lot of travelling individually) and our first together overseas was in 2002 to England and Ireland.

My father's ancestors were of Irish decent and I had been hoping to see Ireland and perhaps some of the areas where these ancestors had originated.

Travel Begins Again!

We began our travelling experiences overseas again in 2002. We had both previously travelled individually to many different countries.

I am hoping to outline our various trips overseas (and also locally) over the next few months. Sharing some of our experiences and favourite destinations.

My love of travel began early and particularly I was looking forward to travelling to England, as this is my mother's birthplace and she always talked about it and her family, and that one day she would be able to return, so I was intrigued.

My first trip (at 18) was to visit those family that I had never met and for Mum to be reunited with them.

This was the beginning of a beautiful relationship with travel. Although there have been ups and downs along the way!
