Last March 24-April 1 had a blast doing 2 holidays (or a single holiday with 2 phases) first was to Glastonbury & Bath, Somerset with my youngest sis to visit my titas and then with Carol (in pic) to Costa Brava & Barcelona, Spain.
I loooooove, luv, lurve LOVE it!!!
Omygosh!!! i think I now work, play and live for and towards holidays...Despite the non-stop rains whilst we were in Somerset, it was just divine! I totally love spendin time with family! And shopping of course, it never goes out of season.
Oh, but I guess it goes without saying that the Spain holiday was just great! I love Spain, everything about it was a dream! The people were all nice, the scenery was splendid, the food was delicious and Barcelona, I must say is underrated! I mean, despite having very low expectations because; A. Spain was not my first choice, B. we were headed for the beach in a not so beach-friendly season (spring), C. my neverending visa dilemma D. budget constraints, it turned out to be a holiday that would be very hard to top!
We were blessed with great weather, and by great I mean, simply sunny, clear blue skies...it was 16 degrees and windy but we headed for the beach anyways. (albeit the layering and notice the leggings? =))
I'm very, very satisfied with this holiday, the preparation was minimal, but the place was divine...the satisfaction exceeded expectation. I am now a great believer in booking airport transfers AND, half-board accommodation for hotels! It just takes away a whole lot of worries and stress while you can devote more time enjoying and chillaxing! whoah!!! Soon, i'll be calling a brainstorming session for the next holiday!
Oh, and I didn't have a proper camera to the Spain trip because my water bottle spilt at London Victoria while waiting to go to Gatwick...this damanged my one and only used-to-be-trusty camera...too bad!!! (i was really worried that this happening was an omen that the holiday would be a horrid one...but, glad that it was actually too great for words!) ...Thank heavens for blackberry putting a 3.0mp on BB Tour! But i do need a new digicam...preferably an SLR.
**Just an off topic addendum...one more thing to tick off my list for 2010 I bought myself a new LV Neverfull bag in Damier leather and GM size!!! Wow! seems like im doing well on this list!
