HORSE RIDING

I have taken up horse riding. I am doing it twice a week. Really love it. Have now mastered trotting and am in the process of learning to canter. Only fallen off once!!



MOIRA COMES TO VISIT

Moira came to spend a week with us in May, we had a great visit. Relaxing, swimming, sights and of course scrapping!!



BAHRAIN F1 GRAND PRIX 2007

We had 3 day tickets for the GP. Niall got to walk through the pits on the Thursday afternoon, we attended both practice sessions and qualifying on Friday and Saturday. Were there bright and early on Sunday to watch the actual race. What an amazing experience!










A HOLIDAY OF A LIFETIME - THE USA

We started our holiday in New York and had my 40th there. Had snow and saw the sights. It was then off to Florida, we did Kennedy Space Centre, Disneyworld and Epcot. An amazing Carribean Cruise - swimming with dopphins. It was then off to LA. Disneyland (and Nialls birthday, Universal Studios and Hollywood. A drive from LA to San Francisco along Highway 1. In San Fran it was Golden Gate Bridge, cable cars, Alcatraz and a lot more. Two nights with the Beckers too. Lost but not least it was off to Vegas. 2 nights at the Luxor and the highlight. Renewing our vows with Elvis at the Graceland Chapel. What an amazing 4 weeks!!!
