•
Herb’s Blog, Herbdate 23068 – 1116 Here’s the haps: Since it is our plan (as the Lord allows) to visit the U.K. sometime in the future and I have written this month about a visit to Ireland, England, and Scotland, I felt I should like to visit Wales and round it…

Velika Planina, Slovenia on the Blogging A – Z Challenge
•
Herb’s Blog, Herbdate 23090 – 1115 Here’s the haps: Petra, over at Erratic Engineeress, has a real travel blog. Oh, she covers other stuff as well but while there are a lot of sites out there that call themselves travel blogs not all of them have ever been to the places…
