Always on a vacation...

It is very seldom that I am home cleaning house or lounging in the rocking chair. I have so much energy and so full of life that I am always out on an adventure. I have traveled many places all over the world. Here is my photo of when I was in England.

Thank you who ever changed the back ground to my blog by adding some flowers. I need all the help I can get these day's. Some day I hope I learn what I'm doing. I must say it's a learning experience for this old seventy five lady. I love flowers so I think maybe my sis put them on there for she works at florist shop. The way to go I'll take anything for the change.

Well as you can see by the picture I have been doing some traveling. It was a long trip by donkey can you see ha! Our trip took us to four different place's. England to start out with, then to Wales, Ireland, and Scotland. We traveled 3500 miles by coach and 150 miles by water. Oh and I forgot and part of that was by donkey ha!
The highlight of the trip though was going to Northampton England where our ancestors came from. I have pictures to prove that I was there. I did fine a few head stone's and names to follow up on.
Ireland was the best part so green and their yards and homes were well kept. Their homes were painted many bright colors which made them very attractive. It wasn't as clean and well kept as going north toward Belfast. That was interesting to see the area where all the fighting has been taking place over religions. Another interesting place was liverpool where the Beatles was from and the Bar where they got started.
There were many other interesting things we saw, but maybe it best to share some of that later.
It was a very enjoyable trip lots of beautiful scenery and most of all it only rain two afternoons on us in three weeks. I guess we left it behind us at home. Thanks for the good weather in our travels this time.
