It's our great-grand-daughter's birthday. Macy is 10; we think of her as our Tasmanian great-grand-daughter as she was born in Launceston. Unfortunately, she now lives in Brisbane and we don't see enough of her. Madeleine, her Mum, told her that when she (Madi) was 10, her grandparents took her to Japan which included trips to Disneyland and Universal Studios. Macy thinks that she should have the same adventure. If only we had the energy! Unfortunately, I don't think I could sit on a plane for the eight to ten hours necessary.
Being reminded about that trip got us thinking about the various trips we have done over the years. One of the most bizarre was, again, to Japan where we used our timeshare to get a week's accommodation in Osaka and then joined a cruise which took us to a couple of ports in Japan, over to Korea, then to Vladivostok and ending up in Beijing, I could write a book about that trip but I'm delighted that I have the blog to refer to and refresh my memory.
I don't look back over the blog often enough. It's taken a lot of energy to write and dedication to keep it going and I should make more of an effort to keep it alive. Another resolution! Let's hope it lasts longer than all the others.
