I'm back........

Well it's been an incredibly long time since I've written!  Sorry - won't happen again!

Alot has happened since I last wrote :  Here are some highlights

I went to Australia for Holiday between April 20 - May 3rd.  I visited Melbourne, Great Ocean Road (including the 12 apostles), Grampians Nat'l Park, Morington PEnisula, Philip Island, Great Barrier Reef, and Sydney!  I have a really  nice time, drank a lot of time and took a lot of photos!  The worst part of the trip and also the best part of the trip was scuba diving on the Great Barrier Reef!  Below is a picture.  It was bad because I ended up having problems with my ears.  Then I flew in an airplane about 5 times up and down and that didn't help the manner!  It finally went away about 2 weeks after the dive with ear drops and nasal spray to help which cost me $40 at the pharmacy in Australia!



Now that my ears are better - I had a very stressful week at work between May3rd - that Friday!  it was month end - so much fun...

It got better though when I went to Dublin that weekend!  I wasn't even rested up at all!  But I went off to Dublin.  I was a little disappointed with it actually.  First of all I got in and two flights from the US just landed.....so you can imagine the cue for the ''all passports'' line.  I wasn't very pleased.  Then I realized after seeing Guiness that there wasn't too much to see.  I went to a tourist office to check out day trips and found this one that went to Kilkenney and a few other spots.  I did this tour the next day!  It was good




Last weekend I went to SWITZERLAND!  I love Switzerland by the way.  I went to Zurich the first day and then ventured off to Lucerne the second day.  I was in love with the buildings, the culture, the people and the language!  I really want to go to more swiss cities now.





This weekend i'm heading off to Italy again!  I'm going to Bolonga!  I haven't been there yet.  Speaking of Italy, I just booked a weekend trip to Rome for my birthday!  Happy birthday to me!
