Last week our wonderful house sitters arrived to care for the house for our trip to my niece’s funeral. The day before we left they offered to stay “a few more weeks”. Since Lisa and I are caregivers for her 80 year old mother and two dogs,we have not had a vacation, just the two of us, for sometime. This unexpected offer sent our imaginations spinning.
Our heads were exploding as we discussed where to go. The possibilities were endless, Shri Lanka, Africa, Croatia. I didn’t want to be on a 20 hour flight as we did when we visited Turkey and Greece (2010) and Thailand (2005). My first thought was, I’ve never been to Europe!
I figured we’d get to see the most countries in the closest space. So here we are in London. I have to pinch myself!
We’ve had four days of sunshine! For these tropical girls it’s been chilly but we don’t care. We’re having an unbelievable time. Stay tuned because this party is just getting started – Stonehenge, Bath and tickets to Wicked! None of this was on my 2024 bucket list. I guess I’ll make room at the bottom of the page.

Would your son like to meet up in Amsterdam?

Wow! You’re so fortunate! I had hoped to be in Europe next summer, but the friend who was going to meet me and tour me around has decided to move back to the states. The dirty rat!
Since I don’t get around real well, I’m not sure I want to go and have to mostly sit in cafés. Although I love sitting in cafés, I don’t want to spend the money to go to Europe and that be the only thing I do.
Please enjoy England for me.

Maybe there’s a women’s only tour? It’s been sunny but today is cold and rainy. Makes it harder.

A tour for women would be nice, but I still don’t get around well and would miss too much. I just don’t want to spend the money to go over and not be able to do things.

Understandable, I get around pretty well and this has been hard. Lots of lines I didn’t expect.

I hope they lived up to your expectations. Bath is lovely and the Roman baths are impressive but Stonehenge needs a bit of imagination, I think 🙂
