In August I'm going to Germany for two weeks. I haven't booked my flight yet but uni gave me enough money back to book a cheap flight to Hamburg... so I'm determined. It won't be a long stay and I probably won't be able to make the long trip down to Bavaria where I used to live (would love to be able to make down there for nostalgia's sake but it'd be too expensive without a pass), but at least I'm going!

I'll mostly be spending my time in Schleswig-Holstein camping out at a festival with some friends and then probably doing some traveling around Schleswig-Holstein and Niedersachsen. I don't want to spend too much time in Hamburg because there's not much to do there, but maybe make it up to Lübeck (great city, first time I witnessed broad daylight in the middle of the night lol), over to Hannover and a few other places.

Really excited!

I brought in NYE in Ft Lauderdale and stayed there a week before traveling through different parts of Fl for 2 more. I LOVED it there. If u haven't been there already u have to check out the Gayborhood! There is some FABULOUS resteraunts down there.

We're saving up for a week away at Disney World next Christmas. It's supposed to be for our honeymoon (getting married in October), but we're also taking my daughters because we think it will be even more fun to share it with them. Between now and then, we'll probably do some weekend getaways to PA to see family, or MA because we love it. I wish we could travel more, but we try to make the most of the weekends when the weather is nice. :)

Sounds fantastic! And congratulations!!!

When you make it over, spend more time in Ireland than Scotland as it's people are friendlier, the scenery is much more beautiful and, all-in-all, it's a much better holidaying experience ***


*** I admit to being ever so slightly biased ;)

We are looking forward to Catalina in a couple of weeks (renting a house), and we are extending the trip through to the 2nd of May to go camping and fishing in our RV...we are taking a tent for the kids! Two adults, two teen girls, a dog and a cat are just a bit much, even in a nice size RV like ours...LOL:jester:

I am very curious and am compelled to ask, How much is it to fill up the gas tank on your RV?

Looking forward to the Bahamas in June...staying at the Atlantis thanks to Scoote's hard work....can't wait for the waterslides, the lazy river....and the dolphins. :)

Not sure, gas has never been quite this high ...probably $300 for the trip from Lakewood to lake Isabella and back...300 miles or so.

I work for a use it or lose it state.....ugh


So for vacation I am going to bring in the New Year in Sedona Az....

Hopefully we can take a lil side trip to the GC so I can get more pics, and stop by all the lil native stands by the road ooohing and ahhing over pretty silver and torquoise jewelry.

But I could look forward to lounging at the spa at the hotel in Sedona just as well lol

Heading out early Saturday morning for a week-long trip to the Smokey Mountains! Sooooo looking forward to the downtime with my beautiful wife! A good week is planned with a balance of a few planned/time sensitive events, but also plenty of time to do whatever we feel like doing at whatever time we feel like doing it. Three days and counting,,,

I’m planning my vacation to the Netherlands. If there is a superior cluster of people, it’s the Dutch. To have the opportunity and moral freedom to smoke hashish in public or maybe even pay someone for sex without the fear of the moral police whipping me with the proverbial cane of morality. Then force me to wear that scarlet letter – S for shame. I guess I’m a bohemian; definitely a sinner.
Seriously, I want to visit the birth place of some of my fav artists like Rembrandt, Vermeer, and especially Van Gough.
And the Anne Frank museum.

ummmmm lemme ponder...or flip a coin...
 

I got to thinking today that I would really enjoy/deserve to take the week of my birthday and maybe the week after to vacation at one of several places I rarely get to see but would LOVE to pamper myself at....

Warm Springs/Hot Springs VA....Berkeley Springs WVa (if the soaking pools are still open?)...Hot Springs NC and their Spa....(flip a coin....)....I'm tempted to find out if a week or two spent soaking frequently in "healing waters" would benefit my physical health as well as my spirit? ....I've heard many people talk of how mineral springs helped with deep tissue, nerve and immune system issues.

I think a little vacation for my birthday will be delightful...especially since there should be snow on the ground in the Virginia mountains while I'm soaking in Hot Springs?

Were going to do a cabin in the woods trip next month. I miss being in the woods, I forget what it was like without wifi and emails. Constant phone calls and handling stuff 24/7.

Fall break can not get here soon enough! We are off to Hot Springs Arkansas, for three days of hedonistic behavior. :-)
