Hello, welcome to week 8 of #MyFavouriteTrip. Thanks to everyone that linked up last week, it's always lovely to read about your trips and holidays abroad especially at this time of year when the weather is getting warmer and summer is just around the corner. We've been ill with colds/coughs/croup since the weekend, first my son and now me. But we are off to Dorset this weekend so will hopefully be fully recovered by then. I'm so looking forward to a little trip away!

This week's winner is:
Larger Family Life: Our Big Family Road Trip: Mount Vesuvius and Herculaneum
Congratulations to Larger Family Life who wins a £20 voucher to spend at Truprint! I loved reading this fantastic and long description about the ruins at Herculaneum. I've never mentioned it on the blog but my first degree was in archaeology at University College London. I studied many different ancient cultures and was lucky to have gone on some amazing excavations around the world with my degree. Although I never chose archaeology as a career, it is still one of my big passions and I love venturing around ancient sites and museums. I would love to visit Pompeii & Herculaneum one day and the post brought to life exactly what it was like before the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. It really does make you think. It's a wonderful post filled with fantastic photos, so please go and have a read!Larger Family Life: Our Big Family Road Trip: Mount Vesuvius and Herculaneum
