i was just thinking a bit about travels and how much i've taken mine for granted... that i haven't valued them enough, and spent so much valuable time whinging.
coz i hated when we went to Hong Kong - i was really sick, and was in the middle of my eating disease - and i certainly let people know i didn't want to be there.
i only enjoyed USA for the last 4 days coz louise was there for that much, but the first two weeks sucked - i was sick for that too.
then the europe holiday - i was also sick for (i'm picking up a theme here). although i loved england... i hated france. but loved holland.
but i've been so fortunate to travel to a lot of different places in the world over my lifetime. i wish i could remember more of it from when i was a little kid. to live in a place like holland is awesome - even if i don't remember it.

i guess it was easy to complain coz i was often sick, and because i fear flying. but at least i do look back and think how good in retrospect it was seeing weird and wonderful places.
the world is such a big place. sometimes to think how big and how many people living away their lives.... it's crazy!
but i'm glad to be a part of it all. and i want to make a positive difference. hmmmm...... i wonder if i'll ever travel to exciting places again. i mean, as exotic as poatina may be, i'm not quite sure it cuts it....
well Poatina is overseas .......... sort of ... there's a bit of water to cross to get there!
