For every cheer I receive, I will drop $1 USD into a savings account. I am starting out with 7 cheers, so I will now transfer $7 into my UK fund.
I figure that I’ll have to save up enough for my family of 4 to go. Therefore, I need at least 10,000 cheers to motivate me. I know this will take a few years, but that’s okay because I can’t allow myself to go broke by saving for one trip (even though it’s once in a lifetime!).
This will be a goal of mine until I live it out. I LOVE ALL THINGS U.K.!

Larisa72 is stressing about a sick child
Having researched both my family and my husband’s family has only made me more determined to travel to the UK. Between the 2 of us, we are Scottish, Irish, English, and Cherokee…..we can go see his ancestral estate on the Cherokee side of the family whenever we want, but the remaining estates (or remains of estates) are across the water…..and travel has been a dream of mine since I was in 3rd grade.
I have located MY family’s ancestral estate – still intact and owned by relatives (the research will be fun for me!) and have managed to find where the remains of DH’s family estate are located.
Add in a friend in Kent who has invited me to visit with her…..and the fact that DH lived in London for a while…makes me jealous and ready to pack up and fly NOW….but kids need ot be a little bit older

I’ve always been fascinated by the English islands. I’ve spent years trying to perfect my British and Scottish accents (though since I’m American, I’ll probably never get it right), and I’d love the chance to try them out, even if I do make a fool of myself. Also, I’m part Scottish and Irish, so I want to visit my roots, so to speak.
