Catching up

It's Easter Sunday 2015.  I haven't written anything on the blog since July 20 2011, the day before I flew to Ireland.  I get you all excited about my 40th birthday trip and then blog nothing.  I did email people about my travels but I am totally useless at keeping a diary so to speak, which is what the blog is.  I do still feel the  same way about things though and because I am again looking at travelling overseas, more to volunteer than anything, I thought I would see if I could actually still get into my blog, here I am.  Ok so first I think we need to do a bit of a catch up from my 40th Birthday Trip!!  Luckily I still have copies of the emails I sent, and of course the photos.  So here goes.
