If I had the money it would have to be a cruise round the world. I love the sea and I love travelling. I am going on a 2 week cruise round the Eastern Med next year but I'd love to make it 3 months and call at all the places I'd love to visit.
I'm hoping to go to New York near to Christmas, with my elder daughter, but if it were possible I'd go to the Northern States for several weeks (my 2nd choice) and see all the places that are not on the tourist map. In the 60s we had USAAF neighbours (in Whitby, via RAF Fylingdales) who were from Montana. Martha (who had Native American in her ancestry) grew up on a ranch 10 miles from Miles City, a one-horse town in Custer County, Montana. She told me, in 1968, her parents had only had electricity for 3 years. I wanna go there and see
real America, not plastic Florida or Mighty-Dollar NY.
I've seen the pyramids at Giza, in transit from Saudi Arabia, even ridden camel-back round them by moonlight but I'd love to visit Cairo again and then see the Valley of the Kings and sail the length of the Nile - so that's choice number 3.
None of it's going to happen unless I either win the Lottery or my Premium Bonds come up but I can dream, can't I?
