UK Trip – How it all came to be!

A while ago, my sister was talking about going to the UK to see where our parents were from and to meet family that we have never met before.

This started a discussion between the both of us, that eventuated into talk of a trip to do just that. It was eventually decided that we would both go together, our partners not interested in coming along – one because they were from the UK and the other because this was a family thing. So the two of us started planning.

Then of course, the unexpected happened – COVID hit and it was all put on the back burner. Finances were used for other things and our trip was put off – but not forgotten! Once COVID started to settle, we decided to go away in 2025 for this trip of a lifetime.

After some consideration, I decided that if we were going to do this, lets do it right! So I talked my sister out of a 2-3 week visit and turned it into a 6 week all over the UK trip.

Taking into account times, work and other things we decided on August to September 2025. That was the easy part, now the hard part had to start – planning the trip.
