My dream is for just one last time, to sit on the balcony of a cosy little tea house, next door to the glass house,which is situated in the Dandenons Mountain Range, just outside Melbourne,Australia. It was so wonderfully relaxing with a warm breeze,windchimes just tinkerling.With a pot of tea,scones,strawberry jam and cream, and talking to my sister, who now is seriously ill and i cant afford to be with her.My other dream is to be in an open top car driving down the Great Ocean Road and seeing the wonderful rainbow over the sea!
Just wishing and dreaming.

oh thats the first time i got to hear my own name Valere..........yipee

Well, when I win the South African Lotto, that will be my first call!! It has aways fascinated me.

I would love to go to Egypt, see the pyramids and visit the Valley of the Kings.

Interesting Thread Irishgirl
Back to Tasmania and see more of it.
The rugged coastline with the highest cliffs in the world are just awe enspiring. My hubby and I have just visited this year. We went on a very fast boat around the bottom of Tassie. I wish I could put pictures on here for you to see it was just magnificent. Such a Pretty place Tasmania I saw snow for the first time in 41 years as it has a lot of Mountains. I even made a snowball lol.
The seafood is just amazing
Hopefully go back again one day.

Not wishing to put a downer on everyone, but Heaven so I could meet my lovely OH - know he'll be there!!!

Me too TG, forgot to add Venice such a beautiful place.

I would like to take the Orient Express to Venice, and stay in the Cipriani Hotel.

Sit in St Marks Square in the evening drinking coffee at Florians, and listening to the music.

Back home on the Orient Express, not fly.

how interesting to see what everyone would love to see......carry on dont worry about hijacking my thread, love reading.

I'd like to stay Devon,now that I have traveled far and wide.
Looking out of my window onto the fields watching the Pheasants and the holly berries about to come through,
The log fire burning, Christmas on its way.!
Bliss yes that's where I'll be soon .
Can't wait to get on that PLANE Home soon !! LOL

Oh, I,m just a tiny bit older (5* in March.)lol. I remember seeing newsreels about those islanders and being fascinated that they all spoke in 1800's English. Anyway, my apologies to Irishgirl. Didn,t mean to hijack her thread. xx

I will be 56 in January. They all went back home eventually and most of them had been living around Pompey I believe.

Yes Namibia is extremely dry but what can you expect of a country with two deserts? That is greed at it's most extreme.

Sharron, We must be about the same age. I remember hearing about Tristan De Cuhna in primary school too. Was there anything left after the volcano blew? I too loved Namibia although very dry.

Back to Namibia,see our mates again.

Ireland again.

Because it was in the news when I was at primary school I have always wanted to go to Tristan da Cunha.

Then we come back down to earth and think about maybe a couple of days in Bruges.

Don't do the battlefields as a little break.You will not come back feeling good.
