Paphos 2010

We had a lovely holiday to Cyprus for a week.  Weather was gorgeous - too hot at times.  We got up at 7am every morning and went for a run/walk along the beach track which was beautiful, then back to have a swim so much easier when the weather is reliably good and you have someone making your breakfast.  Would recommend where we were staying.  We saw 4 weddings while we were there people actually got married looking out on to the beach.  Fun comparing the dresses.  Got used to sitting watching the sun going down with a glass of wine in my hand!  The good life.

Then we came home!  Here are some pictures!
 


Watching the sunset waiting on the wine!

Land's End

Just had a week off and went visiting some of Peter's relatives in Cornwall and made a trip to Land's End.  Weather was OK when we needed it dry it was and the sun even shone!  A lot of travelling but good fun and a bit of an adventure.  Back home for a few days before going back to work which is nice. 

Start a new course next week which will be a challenge as the brain cells have become a bit lazy over these last few years!

New World New Adventure

Things have moved on a treat and Peter and I have now decided to try a new country we are attempting to emigrate to New Zealand.  Whether it comes off or not we shall see but things are looking promising.  What a roller coaster of a ride emotionally!  Watch this space for updates.

Holiday to Fuerteventura

Catcus outside our Hotel!
View from the main steps of hotel!

Have just got back from Fuerteventura having been there for a weeks holiday. Lovely hotel, lovely weather, lovely food but not sure I would go back. Think perhaps we were not in the right frame of mind and not much to do on the island but the people were lovely think it is just not the place for us. Here are some pics
.
Chipmunk on the Beach - could sit and watch them for hours!
This one a bit un-nerving - statues of children in the middle of a roundabout - gave me goosebumps.

Long Time getting there!

Didn't realise it had been so long. Been busy working under a lot of pressure but at last started a new job! With some old faces which is nice but it has been soooo busy hoping to get some help there too. Have given up Guides mainly due to work pressure and have to say I do miss it but not all the admin that comes with it. But the unit has been passed on to younger leaders who I am sure with guidance will do really well. This year it is time to sort my life out - lose weight, get fit and start to live life and enjoy myself. Peter and I are doing well and getting fit together which is nice. Unfortunately he will be made redundant at the end of the year but these things happen for a reason and I am not going to worry about it in fact it is probably a good thing to motivate both of us.
