Travel....

This will just be a quick post tonight...we are about to watch a DVD...

Favourite travel destinations...it is SO hard to chose. Close to home I love travelling out to Ngatimoti, the top holiday spot in the country. I also love visiting PoppyBlack and Mr PB in Christchurch...if fact anywhere where family are is a great place to have a holiday.
We have been lucky enough to visit many countries...a few stand out for a variety of reasons.

The most favourite would be Prague in the Czech Republic...it was a magical holiday, made even more special by the snow which turned this wonderful city into a fairy tale city..so much to see and so many places to walk...plus the tram system makes it so easy to go a bit further. We got caught out in a snow storm which has us laughing all the way back to our hotel...such a wonderful holiday.
Following our intrepid journey to Egypt, we stopped off in Athens, Greece on the way home. What a great place to visit...after standing out like sore thumbs in Cairo, we were anonymous amongst the crowds...the food was amazing, the shopping was great (as evidenced by this rather mad looking photo) and the people were just as we liked them...not too in your face. Great fun was had in Athens...
Then of course there is London..all the photos of my in London are grotesque...I LOVE London for a holiday...the public transport is great and there is just so much to see. It is amazing to see all those things you have seen on TV and read about in books, come to life...I would visit London again in a heartbeat...See photo below of our visit to Madame Tussards...we usually avoid touristy things that cost us money but this was great fun...

OK...have found the post...no photos, sorry...I am annoyed so can't be bothered with it...
