My many adventures

I survived breast cancer, to travel around the world to some of the many places I've always wanted to go. There are lots more places I still want to visit.

I've been to Scotland, England, Vancouver, Victoria BC, an Alaskan cruise, Yukon, Alaska (Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway), a fab Mediterranean cruise which took us to Barcelona, the Vatican & Rome, the island of Crete, Izmir & Sulcuk, Ephesus Turkey, Egypt and Malta. I have been to Las Vegas, Hollywood LA, Cabo San Lucas, Orlando, Daytona Beach, Tampa, a Disney Cruise to Bahamas and Disney's Castaway Cay island, all over Canada and Hawaii and Pearl Harbour. We can add Cozumel, Costa Maya, Mexico, Belize City and Honduras. What a fabulous way to see the world!
Take the time to do the things you want to do because life is too short and if you wait until you can afford it, you'll likely never go. So get your plans ready and pick a place and start booking your trip. It is so worth it.

Thanks for dropping by. I have lots of posts to put up so stay tuned...

BLOG POST June 2019

Hi Folks! During a convention in Toronto in 2017, my grandson and I visited Niagara Falls, CN Tower and went to Medieval Knights dinner theatre. We had such a fabulous time! I will be posting pictures of that wonderful trip.

I still have a great deal of travel posts to put up. I want our vacations and travel to be shared with you all. I'm not sure of what our travel plans will be for 2017, but for 2016, I rested all the time. Retirement is so awesome!! I was able to take pictures of the summer's Totally Eclipse of the Moom, which I'll share with you here on a post. It was incredible for sure.
I just love summer! I hope the winter will be gentle to us.

Still trying to find my ancesters with the Foran/Forhan name. Apparently two brothers came over from Dublin, one was name Edward who had a son named Edward born in Prince Edward Island and he had a son named William who had my father. I love doing ancestry but it is very frustrating when you can get no further without the "parents" names.

I have so many posts to write about so please keep patience with me. I received a great posting from SiteHoundSniffs.com which looks to be a great animal site. Hope you enjoy it.

My granddaughter Layla made it to Master Chef Canada in 2018 but was cut. She's still a great cook.

My little guy Rialey is now 16 and is 6'2 ". He is so thoughtful of me and helps me a lot.

I had hoped to travel last year or in 2019, but health issues stopped that thought. Now I face another health issue, heart failure. Last May 2018 I was admitted to hospital and went into cardiac arrest. Thankfully they brought me back. With all the great health care, I am in recovery. When you don't have yur health, you have nothing. I think I have about 8 specialist doctors and my MD and I pay nothing, thank goodness!

Take care my blogger friends.

Thanks friends,

Debbie

Catalonia National Art Museum area pics, Barcelona

When in Barcelona, on our last day, we traveled on the Hop on Hop Off Bus and it is worth it.  So much cheaper and the tour takes in lots of places to see.  When you see something or want to go somewhere, you just hop off and when you're ready, you hop back on when another bus comes along.

We toured the Gothic area we were staying in.  We went up to the Catalonia National Art Museum which was unfortunately closed, but we took great pics of the scenery.  It was breathtaking!  It was during this ride that we also discovered the sky ride up the mountain.  We should have done it earlier in our stay, but that will have to be done on another visit to Barcelona.  We also didn't get to go to the beach.  I didn't realize how close we were.

So folks, that shows you how NOT to plan your trip.  It is really best to do lots of research on what to see and how to see it before you go on your trip.  Watch out for thieves, they work in groups.  Keep valuables hidden or in the hotel safe.  Remember to keep your kids close.  Don't trust anyone.  One woman on our cruise lost all her luggage, documents and passport.  She fly to Rome to meet our ship and had to apply for a new passport.  What a mess that was.  Sorry for so many pictures, but the view from the Museum was astounding! SO BEAUTIFUL!  Barcelona has so many things to do and to see. I wish we had more time to see a lot more but next time we will.  Sorry I can fix the side pictures, perhaps your computer can.

I hope you enjoy these pictures, as I have lots more.  Thanks for sharing!!
