So excited that we are doing the Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb on Monday! Ever since I watched Oprah do it back in 2013, I’ve wanted to come to Sydney to do it too. Can’t wait! It’s been on my Bucket List, of things to do, for such a long time.

BridgeClimb Sydney is an iconic Australian experience that takes you on a journey to the top of the nation’s most famous and celebrated structure – the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

It’s been a long traveling day… Cancellations, multiple delays, waiting for a different plane, the original one had a bird strike, so they called for a new plane-… lots of running back and forth from gate to gate to get from DFW to LAX, and now, FINALLY on the last leg of the trip… Sitting in the huge Qantas plane about to take off… I think this might be the biggest plane I’ve ever been on…

Planning 2025…

•There are still parts of Iceland I haven’t seen yet and honestly, I’m dying to go back. I’m thinking early summer 2025 for this Western Fjords trip… *Gate1Travel has an amazing itinerary for this part of the country… https://www.gate1travel.com/small-groups/small-group-europe/2024/small-groups-iceland-12disnfb24.aspx?Brand=DISCOVER …

•Then there’s Greece… I mean, Greece is always a good idea. I want to go back to Corfu, to see all my cousins, and then head to Ithaki to visit my Thea Athina… Since daddy and Uncle Jimmy have passed away, I especially want to visit with my Aunt… This trip would be planned on my own, no tour group…

•Of course there’s England, Ireland and Scotland… I’ve wanted to go there for ages. My trip to Europe last year included a couple days in London, but this tour goes a little deeper in the English countryside and to Ireland & Scotland… https://www.gate1travel.com/europe/united-kingdom/2024/escorted/ireland-england-tours-18dgbie24.aspx…

•I’m also considering Sicily/Malta with a little bit of Greek architectural and historical influence with a small tour group… https://www.gate1travel.com/small-groups/small-group-europe/2024/small-groups-italy-14dsicmt24.aspx?Brand=DISCOVER …

As much as I love to travel solo, I’m open for a travel buddy to any of the tour group trips, so I don’t have to get stuck paying the solo supplement fees on the toured trips… If you’re interested let me know 😁👍🏼 Gate1 will occasionally offer a buy one get one 1/2 off sale, so if you’re interested I can keep an eye out👍🏼

*Greece, sadly for anyone who would like to go to Greece, is going to be either a solo trip or another family trip…

* Prices include airfare, fuel surcharges, airport taxes and fees. All prices are per person based on twin occupancy. Air & land tour prices apply from the gateway airport or city specified in the Package Highlights. Prices will vary from alternative gateway airports or cities and may be higher. The...

I made a batch of soap shower favors this morning and now I’m crocheting scarves tonight. It’s been a minute since I crocheted for the Bee Warm Pittsburgh Initiative, so I’m getting back to it… I’d like to get a handful of care packages put together for the Light of Life Rescue Mission over the next couple of weeks, so if anyone would like to donate toward it, you can send $$ via Venmo at -Gdovic. Thank you in advance!! Heather Abraham

Man, I would love to see these kinds of lights the next time I’m in Iceland. 🇮🇸

Don’t judge. This is what it looks like before I start packing for a trip. Any trip. Who am I kidding… Every trip😂🤦🏻‍♀️ I was panicking, today, because I couldn’t find stuff that I put away from my last trip to Iceland. I moved things around before we went to Greece because our cat sitter was staying in our main bedroom so I had to make room for her things… Thankfully, after running around the whole house like a crazy person, I finally found my crampons, collapsible walking poles, adaptors, wool socks, hiking boots, waterproof pants and fleece lined leggings, 3 in 1 winter coat, lined vest jacket…🤔🤔🤔 oh, and my bathing suit for the Blue Lagoon. It’s so weird to have to pack everything for cold weather then throw a bathing suit into the mix 😂😂 I usually am packed at least a week in advance but for some stupid reason I decided to put it off and now my anxiety levels are rising. Ugh… The list of things I have to pack to go to a country that is pretty expensive, if you forget something, is daunting… I will power through 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m also making sure all my travel documents are in order, laundry is done for the guys while I’m gone, the soap shop is tidied up before I leave and my medications are all packed in my oil box and packed in my carry on… Who else stresses over packing for a big trip?? Here’s just a few of the items I purchased (last year) for my trip that I’m taking again this year… •Collapsible Aihoye Hiking Trekking Poles, 2... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08T9C478N?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share •Crampons: OEEIA Crampons, 24 Spikes Ice... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09BJTBCRR?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share •Adaptors: TESSAN 3 Pack European Travel... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C23JV7CP?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share •My Coat: Women's Mountain Waterproof... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08JH4Y45X?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
