| Trips Planned in
the next six months... 16/7/2003 - New Jersey/New York ~22/8/2003 - Amsterdamn Dunno - Bruges ~(For the awesome Belguin beer Major Trips in the Past Few Years... May 2003 - Family trip to Dublin (Ireland) to see and meet my half brother's family. Just a three day trip, but more than enough time to soak up the atmosphere of Dublin. We went to the Guiness Brewery, on a literary pub crawl and played a bit of golf. Met up with Ruth, Peters wife and Rory, my Nephew, all of whom were wonderful! September 2002 - Business/Holiday trip to New Jersey. Flew from Manchester to Newark in 1st class luxury. Stayed in a hotel in Morrison (NJ) and worked most days in a small area called Booton in New Jersey. Journeyed into Manhattan on two days and took a 3 hour boat trip around the island. We visited the exhibitions at the Googenhiem museum and the natural history museum before heading up the Empire State building for the amazing views of New York at dusk. July 2002 - Went to Italy with Andrea's family. We stayed in a very nice villa to the north of Rome. The villa had a Pool, a 3/4 size snooker table, full archery kit, table tennis table, air pistols, 3 barbeque areas, 3 acres of olive grove and much much more. An amazing place. During the holiday Andrea and I spent some time travelling around Italy. We caught the train up to Venice and spent three nights there. We then caught the train back down to Florence, were we spent to nights, and saw Michaelangelo's David and various other sights. A superb holiday with great company and much wine drinking. July 2001 - Spanish travelling. Andrea and I spent 3 1/2 weeks travelling around the easter side of Spain. We flew into Barcelona and spent 5 nights in this beautiful city which I have been to a number of times before. We then caught the train down to Tarragona, and spent one night, just so we could visit Porta Ventura, the famous Universal Themepark. Then onwards down the east coast to Benicasim for 3 nights enjoying the sun and then on to Peniscola for 3 nights. After all this travelling we caught the train to Velencia where we met up with Andrea's family and stayed in a villa about 1.5 hours south of Valencia. Here we stayed for about a week, enjoying the sun and local towns and villages. Our last port of call was Madrid (Where andrea was going to do here year aboard) for 3 nights. We travelled out to Alcala De Heneres, the birth-place of Cervantes, Spains most important author. We took in the major attractions and then headed back home. July 2000 - A bit of a package holiday to Mallorca's east coast. This was myself and Andrea's first holiday together. We soaked up the sun and had the odd trip out; to Palma and on a Champagne boat trip. It was a pretty good holiday. |
