I once had seen a documentary showing spots on this island and really I want to visit it in the future. The documentary I have seen showed the island in winter when it was really cold and the coasts were weavy! I wonder if Easyjet flies there, or any other budget airline!

You can't fly to the Isle of Wight - you have to fly to the mainland, the nearest airports are either Southampton or Bournemouth ..... then you can get a ferry over to the island. -------------------- In Search Of ...........

From the documentary I had seen I was impressed then -although I don't remember much, but this particular island comes to my mind very often. -------------------- My LATEST BLOGS: Marmari, Vasa, and CYPRUS, the Unique Destination for Business and Holidays!!!

I missed you guys too - I did get to meet up with Kathryn a couple of months ago though, that was nice. You're right - working too much and stupid hours aswell - got up at 5am this morning! And also don't have the internet at home so I am struggling to get on... hope you're all well here!

I also had the chance to meet Manzara my friend from Turkey, 2 months ago, but this year I decided to spend time in Greece. (After the trip I had in Kenya) http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entri...40281/tpod.html Are you going anywhere this summer? Anywhere you go, have fun Sian! -------------------- My LATEST BLOGS: Marmari, Vasa, and CYPRUS, the Unique Destination for Business and Holidays!!!

Ooh Kenya sounds good - I will have a look. Mostly working this summer unfortunately, I'll look to go somewhere in October... probably see where the cheapest flights are and work something around that to be honest!
