travel

I hope to go to Colorado this summer. I’ve never seen the Rocky Mtns or any of that area. Hoping for July!

Ireland was awesome! I saw so much and loved it all. I want to go back again.

I’m going to Ireland in July. I can’t wait! I’ll be visiting Dublin, Gallway, and the Dingle area. I’ll post pictures on flickr when I get back.

I went to Florida again this past April. After a very hard winter here in New England the 90 degree weather in Florida was a welcome relief. The ocean temp was around 8o which made it nice for swimming.
I had a very nice week there.

I traveled to New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and Nova Scotia this past summer. It was a great trip. Saw the Bay of Fundey, Cape Breton Island and so much more. I will go back there again. The bed and breakfast’s were really nice everywhere I stayed.

I went to Burlington over the weekend. I had been there once before and enjoyed the city. There’s a very nice street (Church St) with shops and restaurants. Lake Champlain is awesome too. I was surprised to see it without any ice in the middle of January. And the Magic Hat brewery is nearby! :)

I visited Newport for a couple of days after Christmas. I stayed in a very nice B and B and toured a couple of the mansions. They were amazing and to think they were “summer cottages”.

I spent a week in Florida this summer. Now I see why people that live there come north for the summer. It was so hot and even the ocean didn’t offer much relief. I did have a good time there though. I got to see the Red Sox play Tampa Bay at Tropicana Field which is air conditioned. I also saw some awesome sunsets over the Gulf.

I spent a few days in the White Mountains in NH last week. It’s a very nice area with lots of things to do. I went to the top of Mt Washington (in a van – I didn’t drive) and the day I was there it was 35 degrees with winds of 55-60 mph which made the wind chill about 18 degrees. I was wearing shorts so I didn’t spend too much time outside!

I went to Vermont over the 4th of July weekend. I stayed in the small town of Arlington, which is between Bennington and Manchester. It was a nice weekend except the weather was kind of cool and cloudy. Bennington was great with 57 moose statues in different parts of the city.
