Welcome to my new blog, purely dedicated to travel. Ok there may be the odd book or two thrown in too. My blog is in it's early stages of design as my friend Erin, is currently designing the background for me, so please bear with us.
2015 was the year of my 50th Birthday, so I chose for my Birthday Vacation, to continue a trip to Alaska we postponed the previous year due to my Dad's passing. If only I'd set up a blog about that trip as it was amazing!
Well this year is Dave's 50th Birthday, so when we returned from Alaska in June, the discussions started taking place. Where shall we go? New Zealand? Dave has family there.... Hawaii? Somewhere we've always wanted to go. Ok I've always wanted to go. The Far East? The world is our oyster, so where shall we go?
Lets go to Texas Dave says. Texas? Haven't we been there a few times? I obviously don't mind going there as it's a home away from home and people I love live there. "Yes, Texas" Dave says, as there's a lot there he wants to see. "Oh and why don't we go to Nashville too?". Does he realise how big Texas alone is? Oh well, I'm always up for a challenge and I love planning trips. One thing I miss about leaving the travel industry.
Ok, so first thing to do was speak to my old friend Laraine, who I started
with in travel industry in 1983. We're still in touch. She's still travelling
the world, and has a successful travel business and she is amazing at what she
does!

Should we fly into southern Texas and leave from Nashville? Or should we fly back from Dallas and have more time with friends and family? Laraine was set the challenge and she came back with the goods. We were to fly into Houston with Virgin/Delta and fly back from Dallas with Delta. There it was. Main part of the trip booked. Texas here we come (and wherever else our trip takes us!)
