Oh, the Places You'll Go!

Today, I am introducing a new segment of my blog. I have dubbed it Vintage Blog because I have gone to past blog posts that I loved making and am re-posting them. I do however, go through them and update them, so the few of you that have read them can still get a little treat. 



I love to travel.
I love to see things and be places that I have only ever seen on tv, in my imagination, or in a book.
Why else would I have worked in US Airways call center for a year? 

Looking back, I know I acquired my love for travel on my first big trip; Alaska. When I was in jr. high, my grandma took me on an Alaskan cruise with her. My grandma had plans to go for months, if not longer, with my grandpa. From the time the tickets were purchased to the week they were supposed to leave, my grandpa had been diagnosed with cancer in his throat and was really sick. He had to have surgeries to open his wind pipe, but other than that, there was nothing that could be done for him. As the time for the cruise approached, he had just gotten a surgery and was breathing, eating and sleeping considerably well. So, he insisted that she go on the trip. Although a hard decision, she went and took me along. (It is widely known in my family, that I am the favorite. haha). 

After that, a new Chelsie was born.  I then took it upon myself to go everywhere and see everything I had the opportunity to. There are many places that I have yet to visit. However, there is a handful of places I have been.

{this post is juts to tell where I've been, not really why, when, or how...}
