SHE AND A FRIEND, RACHEL TROTTER LEFT IN NOV. '09. FOR DUBLIN. MAY SPENT 3 MONTHS IN BLESSINGTON IRELAND, THEN MET UP WITH MY COUSINS IN THE UK, DORSET AND SOMERSET. STAYED THERE FOR A MONTH.
IN MARCH SHE LEFT FOR SPAIN TO ATTEND THE FAMILY REUNION MY SISTER KARENZA HANSON PUT TOGETHER IN HONOR OF MY STEPMON CHI'S 80TH. BIRTHDAY. MY SISTER ALEJANDRA BURGESS FR0M MISSOURI AND HER FAMILY ALSO ATTENDED. THEY ALL MET IN SEVILLE, TOURED AROUND CADIZ, MADRID AND TOLEDO.
KARENZA AND HER FRIEND GRACIA WERE INSTRUMENTAL IN SHOWING MAY AROUND AND MAKING SURE SHE HAD A WONDERFUL TIME. AS DID MY COUSINS THE DOLANS AND BAKERS IN THE UK.
KARENZA HAS BEEN LIVING IN SPAIN AND GIBRALTAR FOR THE PAST 20 YEARS. I IN 2005 I MADE A SIMILAR TRIP, THOUGH NOT QUITE AS EXTENSIVE, WITH MY OLDEST SON PAT LOU BEFORE HE GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL. IT IS GOOD TO HAVE A CONTACT LIKE KAREN FOR JUST THE RIGHT OCCASION. THANKS A TON KAREN...I OWE YOU ONE SIS!
AFTER SOME OF THE PARTY LEFT TO GO BACK TO THE US AND ARGENTINA, MAY JOINED KARENZA AND HER FRIEND GRACIA IN A SHORT TOUR OF FLORENCE WHICH THEY ALL THOROUGHLY ENJOYED.
THEN MAY RETURNED TO BLESSINGTON IRELAND TO PREPARE FOR HER TRIP BACK HOME TO ALASKA. SHE STAYED IN IRELAND FOR ANOTHER 3 WEEKS UNTIL APRIL OF 2010.
IN ALL, MAY WAS GONE FOR 5 MONTHS. A LOVELY TRIP WHICH SHE WILL NEVER FORGET, SOMETHING ELSE TO PUT INTO HER BOOK OF REMEMBRANCES.
PRAISE THE LORD!
MAY VISITED IRELAND, SWITZERLAND, THE UK, SPAIN AND ITALY.
