It's been quite a few years since we have had a vacation, but in April of 2006 we were blessed with a vacation in a vacation. Our trip to Daytona Beach started with us blowing the engine in our van. The warranty was up just 10 miles past. We were stuck in Tennessee for 9 days waiting for a new engine. Finally we were back on the road. We decided not to let this repair ruin our vacation. We had a wonderful time visiting our favorite places. We love going to parks. At the end of our stay, and after the van was packed to go home, I talked my husband into stopping one last time at our most cherished park. While there we spotted the turtle. My husband looked at that turtle, and then at me and said, “ Let's go to the Keys.” He talked me into it, and today we joke how we made a left turn instead of a right lol. It was our first and last time in the Keys, and we had an awesome time. We didn't know Wyland was there. We watched him paint his last wall in the U.S. It was a magical 7 day!

 

Here's mine:

As part of the celebration for your 4th birthday, we took you to Day Out With Thomas in Grapevine at the Grapevine Vintage Railroad. Thomas the Tank Engine was the lead engine that day! You were so excited to see Thomas! You first sat with me on the train, and then you sat with Daddy. After the train ride, we had to wait to have your picture taken in front of Thomas, so we just walked around and shopped for souvenirs. We ran into Sir Topham Hatt, and you were just a bit nervous around him. Soon it was time to see Thomas up close. Daddy later took a photo of you and me right in front of him on the railroad track.
Love, Mommy

 

I love this thread and all the trip pages. You all have such interesting lives! . Thanks for the challenge @LynnG !

 

This was a great challenge - I am busy working on the pages from our recent holiday to Japan - so this page will be a part of those stories.

 

99 words - so I thought I'd work on the trip we took this month, but those pictures are still on the phones/cameras so I just went with an older trip

 

Thanks for a wonderful challenge!

 

Thanks for the challenge! I needed to scrap this!

FINALLY!
I did a two page spread. Shabby Fair from etc by Danyale is so much fun to work with, and a beautiful collection!

 

Loving everyone's pages. We've been doing and renos on our home, so travel has been limited to little local adventures. Still so much to see and do. Oh, squeaked by with 84 words.
