Three Firsts.....

First flight on my own,
Yes I suppose it is hard to believe!
I am quite scared of flying, but once
the tickets were booked .. Had to do it!!





First time to Canada.



Saint Lawrence River as I flew in!
I did ask my cousin .. so if its
wrong, we can blame him !!


First time staying with my cousin and his family.

This was taken in Ricardo's Italian restaurant for my birthday meal..!

It was DELICIOUS!!!!!

  12. I'm happy for you Anne! I remember the first time I flew on my own OUT of the US and into Europe. It was frightening! But, once you get past that first hurdle, the rest becomes a piece of cake!

  17. Hi Anne- Now that you've been "up up and away" do it more often. living in far away Australia - and loving France, it's a matter of fly or swim - and I would have to say I have seen the most amazing sights and colours out my little plane window.
    I noticed you love walking -I have taken 3 wlking holidays with HF Holidays 2 in the Cotswold and 1 in the Lakes district. loved them
