Another Stamp in the Passport

I have the same passport, the same Mastercard and this time a husband for a traveling companion. Destination : Aruba. Our wonderful sisters and a couple of wonderful friends are holding down our homefront for a week while we head toward the Equator...Pictures start on Thursday !!! I can't wait to take them.

Photos and more photos

Home Again

We are home safe and sound.It was funny to look back on this blog and see just how badly my commitment to blog everyday fell apart with every mile we traveled. My intentions were good...but my internet connections were poor. As Raymond said"Geez, Erin , It's not NEW"..very true but I guess Al Gore forgot to call Scotland when he was designing the whole thing. HA !

We spent time in Edinburgh where we went to the Tattoo @ Edinburgh Castle, experienced the yearly "Fringe" fesitval, and then left for London and on to Boston. The travel day coming home was a 22-24 hr day. I can honestly say that I haven't done that since I was 22 on Rod & Brumbi's first anniversary. I haven't missed the "all nighter".

We have visited sights that I can't even describe, met wonderful people and learned more than you could in any classroom. My first trip to Europe will surely not be my last. I have a passport, a suitcase and a MasterCard...ready to go !

Next weekend when my internet is of normal speed I will post pictures. There will be LOTS. They may not be in order but I promise you they are beautiful.

Glasgow & Highlands

We have visited the village of Sneem, walked on Bogside and sailed from the Port of Larne...I'm not sure Dr. Seuss would have left if he had been here.

We are in Scotland. We stayed last night in the city of Glasgow and are now in a village called Aviemore. We have traveled through some beautiful places and the pictures wont do the locations justice but I hope you like them. We are all travel weary ( all meaning the entire group) but have much to see in the next three days...

Catching up.....

I haven't had good internet connections lately so I have some catching up to do...Last night we stayed at Rosses Point on our last night in the Republic of Ireland. Tonight we are in Northern Ireland in a town called Portrush. We have seen the beautiful Giants Causeway..the city of Lodonderry....so much more but here are some pic's....
