In 2003, we returned to Europe. This time we spent two weeks in the
United Kingdom. Here we are in the Roman Baths.We invited some friends
along and Daryl (who took this picture) came along with us. He really
wanted to see Stonehenge, but I know he was disappointed when he found
out he could not touch the stones. We surprised him with a trip to Avebury,
another known stone circle where you could get up close to the stones
and where a village still stands.
We also visited Beggelert, Keswick, Edinburgh Scotland, York, and Ended
up in London. I hope to have more pictures up soon. |
| In 2004, we took what we called our "Trip of Fate". With me
not working and going to school, we had limited funded to travel on, so
we decided to drive west. Our destination was Colorado Springs, I wanted
to show Ting some of the places I remembered when I was there (I was only
3 and 4 then). Colorado Springs is a beautiful place with Pikes Peak, Garden
of the Gods, and Seven Falls, where this picture was taken. We got there
in two days, driving straight through with an overnight stop in Kansas.
After spending a few days wandering around the Colorado Springs area, we
stopped in very deserted KOA and was trying to decide whether to stay or
not (the weather forecast called for a low temperature of 25 and windy at
this elevation). We looked at each other and Ting suggested we flip a coin.
Well, that started it. Any time we had a decision to make, we allowed fate
to decide. Do we go left or right? Do we pay for the "Royal Gorge Bridge
Park" or not? First class on the Train or not. All in all, it was fun
and relaxing. After four days in Colorado seeing the sites, we decided to
move on and head back home. We knew we wanted to geocache and tour all the
way back. We spent four more days in Kansas, geocaching
all the way back and discovered there really is more to Kansas than just
flat lands and wheat fields. Don't believe me, check out the Cosmosphere! |
