Lucy's Overseas Trip!
Hi everyone!
So sorry it has been so long since i last wrote to you all....Mel and I have been flat out travelling all over the countryside!! This is what has happened since i last wrote...
We finished off our Green Tortoise 'Canyons of the West' tour with a 2 day stay at the Grand Canyon...and grand it was! So big!! Mel and I decided to just walk around the rim of the canyon as we didn't particulary think that hiking to the bottom was ideal for us!! Over 250 ppl get rescued from the canyon every year due to dehydration etc.....Mel and I didn't fancy becoming a statistic and getting dragged back up by a mule!!
The tour was fantastic - so many great friends were made! But I can tell you what, we were so glad to sleep in a normal bed and have some quiet time after 9 days on a bus with 36 ppl!!
The tour ended in Las Vegas and that is where we stayed for a whole week! Originally we were only going to stay for 4 days or so, but decided to extend our stay to see some shows!!! Glad we did! We saw "O" by Cirque Du Soleil and "A New Day" by Celine Dion. Both shows were absolutely amazing.....the dancing, singing, lighting....everything was incredible! There are no words good enough to describe what we saw! Something that we will remember forever!!
The shows in Vegas were fantastic, but Mel and I were sure glad to leave this morning.....Vegas never sleeps - it is CRAZY!!!!!!!
We woke up at 4am this morning to catch our flight from Vegas to LA than LA to Dallas. Had to be at airports alot earlier due to heightened security measures because of the lastest terrorist scares! So as you can imagine, it has been an extremely long day!!
It is now 1.45am in Dallas, but i am typing madly because they have free internet connection in our rooms....something we haven't had before! Going to try and download pics (finally!!)
Tomorrow we are off to Memphis by bus......a 9 hour journey...will we survive???? Hopefully I'll be able to sleep most of the way! When we get there, we are going to see Graceland! And it's Elvis week! Very exciting!!!! I should have brought my Elvis suit from the concert....hehehehe:-)
Anyways...off to try and download these pics....
Miss you all so much
Lots of Love
