Travel finally made.

So it has been a while since I last wrote a blog and a lot has happened!

We have finished the two rooms of our house that we were decorating now and they look great. We may have another two to do at a later stage but we will wait until the warmer weather arrives.

It was decided that we needed a break as we had not been overseas to visit our parents for a while. It had been about five years since we had last been home. That was predominately because of the Covid outbreak and the travel chaos that ensued afterwards. The costs were at that time, astronomical to say the least.

Finally we made it! We took a three week break and flew home. The time with family and friends was fantastic. The weather could have been a little nicer, but hey, we didn’t go home for the weather now did we? We fitted in some touristy things, that we felt we could now do, as we don’t live there anymore and they were exciting. As a tourist you see a country completely different than you do whilst you lived there. The trip was not really a holiday as such, more a catch-up and driving around to see everyone. Sadly we didn’t get to see everyone, but we tried to see as many as we could.

The three weeks went really quick and soon we were back home again. Time goes real quick and to think we have already been back home for a week!

The garden looked a little overgrown as there was sun, rains and winds whilst we were away. Now is the time to start the pruning and replanting of the vegetable boxes. The grass has since been cut and looks good. Will be a good couple of weeks or so to get the garden back to looking normal again, but hey, if you have time away, what can you expect!

Who knew that flying was so tiring. We had around twenty-six or so hours, including transfer times, there and on the return journey. Planes seem to have been made smaller and aisles narrower. The flight crews trolley just about rolls up and down the aisles. “Mind you fingers and toes, I think.” Space costs money, but a little more room for the most of us who use and pay for a trip to wherever. It doesn’t have to be a large amount, just a little here and there would be nice.

Smile and have a great day 🙂
