To see the place were my grandmother lived , and some of my aunts and uncles were born. To walk into the church were my father was baptized its just something that you can't put into words . I'm so very glad that I made the trip ,and we will return next year. To visit with family ,who until now were just names , now they have a face . We have hugged, had a little wine ,a little cider, ate a lot of good food, now we are a family . Yes this was something that I will always remember .

me alegra que os haya gustado.
