Sue Upton's Travels

For many years, Sue's enjoyed traveling to different places throughout the world. So I thought it might be of interest to her fans, if there was a page detailing her recent itineraries. This information comes directly from Sue herself, as do the comments.

Place(s) Visited Date Remarks

Bergerac region, southwest France May 2008 "...we are driving down to stay with [friends] and tour about the region. I will be able to brush up on my French. I love the French lingo, and will enjoy trying my best to be understood."

Germany (Feldberg, the Black Forest) August 2007 "Took a 10-kilometer hike up a mountain - glowing with perspiration, adrenalin flowing. Views were spectacular. Three hours later arrived back at our base at a splendid fairy tale hotel, then tucked into a fantastic home made Black Forest Gateaux cake, laced with so much Kirsch I felt drunk. I really love Germany, and the people, in fact everything about it, and I even lost a little weight through all the exercise. - I'll have to continue walking up mountains!"

Portugal July 2007 "The beaches were great, the largest I'd ever seen."

France (Strasbourg)
Germany (Stuttgart) Spring 2007 Sue calls Strasbourg "a fairy-tale city."

Spain (Granada, Casades, Murcia) February 2006 "Southern Spain, i.e. Estepona, Murcia, is an uplifting experience, makes me feel young, vibrant and rearing to go, lively atmosphere & carefree, laid-back feel."

Germany (Lake Constance) November 2005 "I am going to lovely Germany around Lake Constance for my birthday..."

Mediterranean Sea October 2004 A cruise from Malta to Venice, with stops in Sicily, Corfu, and Dubrovnik.

Spain (Estepona) March-April 2004

Austria (Salzburg) November 2003 "It is a really wonderful place. I went on a day tour of The Sound of Music. It was fantastic, I wanted to run down a hill singing The Hills are Alive, and I bloody well did. My husband and friends said they thought I was mad, I told them, yes you are right."

Thailand February 2003

Kenya December 2001 Safari holiday. Sue's husband Roger had a gig playing there with his band at this time.

USA (Las Vegas; the Grand Canyon) Spring 2001 Sue reports that she enjoyed this trip very much, and would like to return to the western US, particularly to visit Lake Tahoe and Yellowstone National Park.
