The holiday curse...

Have I ever told you about our holiday curse?  What can I say other than we’re due to go on holiday mid September to Turkey, loosely translated as don’t book any holidays for that period or consider travelling to Turkey!

 

It is a running joke that every holiday we book ends in disaster, its not strictly true, its not every holiday - just most!

 

We have been cancelled, delayed, stuck in other countries, attacked by giant bugs, the list is endless!  Don’t get me wrong – we’ve had some fabulous holidays, but its got to the point where it is a standing joke between friends and family. 

 

We’ve been cancelled due to rioting in Egypt – but ended up in a fabulous holiday in Rome and Venice.  We were cancelled due to the ash cloud – but ended up in Amsterdam for a weekend for compensation.  We were cancelled because our hotel was flooded by a massive hurricane in Cuba – we waited and went the following year!  We had a holiday from hell on our honeymoon and flew home a week early, we then flew to Dublin for the remaining week and got stuck there because the planes engines failed – the list is not exhaustive.  So as you can see, it all happens to us!

 

So it is with trepidation that I get down from the loft and dust off my suitcase for our next adventure to Turkey – do wish me luck!  And you've been warned... Don't book anything for when were away or for the country were going to!

 

TTFN, Sammy xx
