I’ve been doing some research into something a friend told me about, which is self catering holidays for Christmas. All of my friends and family know I’ve always wanted to go to Scotland. So of course when I heard about this idea, my ears perked up and that is when the research started. It would be great to have a holiday there. It seems to me that even though our family is large and used to spend Christmas together, over the years now we go to my Mom’s house on different days during the holidays.
I’ve looked at some travel guides and even though I haven’t asked my Mom what she thinks of the idea, I’d like to take her with me. Even if it is just for a few days. I think it would be a nice gift to her, and she would be pleased to come with me. Besides, I’m afraid to fly alone. She might not want to go exactly on Christmas day or during Christmas week even, but still Christmas can be celebrated until New Years, since I don’t take my tree down until then. I think sometimes I’m still a kid at heart and don’t want it to end.
Sometimes it’s nice to get away on holiday breaks and this is something that I’d really consider doing.
