Wow! I can hardly believe it - in less than THREE (3) months I'll be overseas for the first time, and just a few days from Crufts!
So far Mum and I have got our flights booked (Melbourne-Hong Kong-London-Melbourne), we have booked our tickets for Crufts and we have organised to spend a day in Paris.
Crufts is in Birmingham, near where my father grew up, and where some of his family still live. We'll be staying with Aunt Gwen while we are there - so there'll be a good opportunity for some light genealogical investigations of the local area.
We are going to do alot of the tourist stuff - distilleries in Scotland, Lindisfarne, Stone Henge, Durham Cathedral ... and heaps more that we'll list as we get to plan them.
I'll be putting GoogleEarth references on soon so that we can track where we are and we go.
More later!
Cheers
