I would love to visit my friend and his family in America, but the journey is too difficult to even think about. I would need to get to Newcastle airport first, and that is not something I relish, from there it would be a flight to Amsterdam, a flight from Amsterdam to New York and then another flight from New York to San Diego and then a car journey of about an hour to where my friend lives. All told that's having to navigate four airports and a 27 hour trip. Just not even in the running for me.
But we Skype and have a good chinwag and all of his family join in; his mom wants to marry me so I could become an American citizen and live there permanently, but I don't think I could stand the heat - 125F on a normal day and upwards of a 140F on a hot day, I'm knackered when the mercury hits 70F lol. It's a nice thought and a dream that will always be just a dream, but it's sometimes nice to dream
