THE SOUTHERN AMERICAN SERIES PT22
EUROPE
I headed back to Europe for a few weeks as there were a few special occasions to attend. My Nana’s horse was racing at Cheltenham, something I hate to miss and my mum’s 60th, something I couldn’t miss! 😂
I MIGHT LIKE MY TRAVELS BUT COULDN’T MISS A FAMILY DO.
Neither knew I would be visiting but I have never seen Nana so shocked in her life, she’s known to be always very relaxed!
WHERE IS CHELTENHAM
Cheltenham, Europe & Mum’s 60th
CHELTENHAM
I was always going to come home for this and as the entire family had flown over from Belfast I wasn’t for missing out. But it helped that my mum’s birthday wasn’t long after so I could hit two birds with the one stone.
Nana had always been big into her horse racing, she owned various horses for the last 30 years of her life. But it was usually point to point or the odd track event in Ireland, so to have her horse running at Cheltenham was huge and like the cherry on top for her.
EUROPE
After a few days here I claimed I was heading back on my travels through Mexico and the U.S. but in reality, I was hiding in Europe for a bit until my mums birthday where I would meet them in London.
