As everyone knows, I usually only go on long trips to the UK about once every three years. It usually takes me that amount of time to save up enough money to afford such a trip!!
However, after going to the UK and Germany just 12 months ago, an opportunity presented itself to go again this year. Rootstech, the world’s biggest genealogy conference held each year in Salt Lake City, is branching out and holding a second conference in London this year. I wasn’t sure if I could manage it but booked an earlybird conference ticket and then worked out how to do it.
Consequently I am now on my way to London. As usual first stop is Singapore for a couple of days and from there to Paris where I am meeting a friend from Melbourne who is going to Rootstech with me. We will have an airbnb place in both Paris and London.
After a week exploring Paris and two weeks in London, I will then have two more weeks on my own visiting friends and relatives, along with a bit of family history research before heading home.
As usual the trip will be 38 days leaving Melbourne on Thursday October 10th and arriving home on Tuesday November 19th.
First stop Singapore.
