Re: Where have you visited

The far east fascinates me, the culture is so different.
love to see the Northern lights- go to Australia (got cousins there not seen for over 40 years) Not keen on going to India love to do Burma and the Amazon river trip. down the Missippii would be high on my list on a river boat as well

Sounds like you've had some great hols, they don't come cheap though do they.

My wife and I worked all year (for 21 years) apart from 3 weeks off when we owned boarding kennels. Apart from that we had absolutely no days off, even Christmas and bank holidays we worked. Sometimes if there was a thunderstorm we worked 48 hours non stop to stay with the animals. Each day was a minimum of 12 hours sometimes longer 7 days a week. So we did have some rather expensive holidays but no more than others would have spent on weekends combined.

Some of these a couple of times. Most of India. Long distance travel was our hobby. The more countries you visit, the more get added to the list.

You ran a boarding kennels for a long time realspeed. Impressed. The average is 7 years, it is so demanding, with round the year bookings. Many years ago it was seasonal, with just summer holiday bookings (possibly before your time?)
