Looks like I won't be taking that trip to China this year. Am going back to England instead. Heading for Weymouth again and possibly Port Issac for a couple days, then off to the races!
The Royal Ascot Races!
I may even wear a hat if I can reserve a spot in the Royal Circle or whatever it's called. I've sent off a letter asking for the invite. Fingers crossed. Something I've always wanted to do since first seeing 'My Fair Lady'. I watch the races every year on TV and almost went a couple of times when I was in England, so it's now or never ... I'm going to try to make this time. Trip-time will be in June. I certainly hope it pans out. A lot of things are hanging in the balance, so we'll just have to wait and see as the weeks roll by.
I'll buy my outfit in Weymouth, at least a hat while I'm there and will leave it with my friends Ali and Martin. I certainly won't need it in the states. lol lol Black and white sounds good for me ... or black and some summery color. I like pink or green or light blue. Summers are pretty warm in England, that's why I usually go early spring or in the fall/winter seasons.
My hotel reservation for the races is in Bracknell at the Grange Bracknell. It's almost at the gate of the track, just a short cab ride. Exciting, huh? I'll stay there a couple nights at the end of my trip and then will return home from London.
So that's the big trip change this year.
