Welcome

After several requests, I've decided to document my upcoming travels. I'll be taking my trusty palm pilot so I can update you on my adventures as I go. Though I will be taking many pictures on my trip, I will not be able to upload them until I return, so this will be a text only blog until then.

My trip will start in Scotland, where I will connect with my Scottish heritage and visit relatives in Glasgow and on the Isle of Lewis in Stornoway and Barvas. Along the way, I hope to stop in Edinburgh. Then it's off to Ireland to visit Belfast in Northern Ireland, before moving on to Dublin. From Dublin, I'm taking a tour of Southern Ireland. After that, I'll take a ferry/train ride to London. While in London, I'm off for a weekend trip to Wales. After a few more days in London, it's over to Paris through the Chunnel, where I'll meet up with Reynald. We'll travel together to Porto, Portugal, then to Lisbon. From there, we hope to stop in Barcelona or Madrid in Spain, before heading to Grenoble, France to visit Reynald's brother. Our trip ends back in Paris. At least that's the initial itinerary, plans may change as we go. It will be a whirlwind, and I'll try to keep you up to date as I go.

I guess it's safe to assume that you are having a wonderful time, since you seem to have no time to tell us about it. Oh the irony!! You either have lots of time and nothing to say or lots to say and no time to say it in. I did hear third hand, though, that you are having fun. Good!! This trip is short, we've got years to talk.
Love
Mary
