It has been nearly two
years to the day since our last blog post. I suppose we left the blog a bit up
in the air. Our last post told of our voyage to our final destination on our
round the world trip, China. One day we may even post the blogs from China.
Since our return home
we have moved house twice, welcomed the newest addition to our family; Burrito,
maintained employment for longer than a year and continued to travel, albeit a little
bit closer to home and for a lot less time than we might desire!
We still both have
itchy feet to travel and are currently planning our trip when we have a month
off in the summer.
We have decided to
start blogging again more for the memories ourselves, I quite often have flashbacks
to our big trip and check the blog to remember where it was that we had that
amazing dish or stayed it that random hostel.
For now we will post
from our latest trip- Murcia, Spain. We stayed in the village of Covera with
Matt’s Mom and Dad (the trip was a Christmas present, for which we are very grateful).
The holiday was not a normal one for us, no weird and wonderful modes of transport
(just the local bus) or dingy hotel rooms in remote places (very modern and pleasant
apartment block!), just a relaxing sunny family holiday, just what we needed to
keep us going to the next trip!
