Travels & Holidays

I've enjoyed many great vacations over the years. In the 90s our family went for a holiday every summer. From July of 2001 to August of 2003, Sue and I took a couple of years off to travel the world. We had so much fun that in 2008 we did it again! After I retired from teaching in the summer of 2010, we were free to travel as much and as often as we liked! And we liked it a lot! Although I lost my travel partner in 2017, I still love to get away and see the world and intend to keep on travelling as long as I'm able to.
