We turned on the TV this morning and opened YouTube to see if we could find something interesting. One of our favourites in Steve Marsh who lives in Montrose in Scotland and he and his wife were in Rome. We've never been to Rome so stayed with that program to see what it was like. A few early realisations: even in the Autumn when the video was made, it was busy; it would be hard work walking around on the cobbled streets; there was nowhere to sit down and there seemed to be building going on everywhere; everything seemed to be very expensive.
Do we regret missing out on Europe in our travels? Perhaps, but circumstances steered us towards Asia and we have wonderful memories and no regrets. Is it too late to go now? All in all, it is probably easier and more sensible now to see these places through someone else's eyes and without all the hassle. I know there are people of our age who are still getting on a jet plane and flying to exotic destinations but that's not for us. We prefer to do our travelling through Youtube.
