Your Next Vacation

[CharleyH]

I want to go to Egypt, but I can tell you that I am not going there as they kill all their pigs and detain British tourist. I think them a bit overboard on the Swine Flu scenario. However, I think we might buzz down to Lisboa and then float on over to Morocco. Where will you go for your next vacation?

Having just been to Australia and New Zealand (and California), my next vacation is pretty tame--a week in Cape May, NJ, playing host to the extended family.

 

[TheeGoatPig]

I am going to Atlantic City for this weekend. That is as close to a vacation as I get most years.

 

[OhMissScarlett]

I really want to go camping in Northern Arkansas, but Hubby isn't really into it, so we may go down there and just do the condo thing again. I wanna go camping! Maybe I can get Carson to go with kidlet and me sometime.

 

[glynndah]

We get vacations?!? I really should start paying more attention in those meetings.

 

[voluptuary_manque]

I really don't know. I'm trying to put together a group to charter a canal barge in Europe of a week. Anyone interested? I think we would make quite a merry gathering.

But there's also Mozambique, Mongolia, or NZ. And Texas, again, of course.

 

[damppanties]

Connecticut! Beach! Next week! Excited! Can you tell?!

 

[jomar]

Got my sights set on the Redneck Riviera this go round.

 

[slyc_willie]

I was planning on surprising the SO with a trip to Teotihuacan . . . .

 

[Trinique_Fire]

Have to hit Baltimore (again) in November. We'll try to spend a couple of weeks there (in Maryland) visiting everyone.

After that, nothing. Maybe my daughter and I can sneak in a trip to Detroit on the Megabus to see my girlsomethingorother.

 

[TxRad]

If I can get the work and the weather to cooperate, I want to take a long Motorcycle trip to see some friends from here.

We promised the girls we would do the "Western Loop" again this summer. It consists of a car trip that goes through Sequoia National Park, Yosemite, Mt. Whitney, Death Valley, Las Vegas (give me a break, dammit!), Grand Canyon, the Painted Desert, the Petrified Forest and Tombstone. Takes about a week (too damn much driving), but is good "family" time.

The Petrified Forest is awesome. Though you're going to come across quite a lot of terrified trees.

No, seriously, you're going to be in the car with two little ones??

Convention in New Bern, NC this weekend
Not a vacation but it's the coast!

Yup. We did the trip (in reverse order) last June and it was great. The kids are wonderful on trips.

The only thing that really gets on Amy's nerves is me asking "Are we there yet?"

Florida in September, we've reserved ourselves a room on Marathon Key for ten days.

Of course, this is barring issues like, oh, say, someone getting sent to FLETC for four months around then.

Mmm...the Petrified Forest and the Painted Desert are amazing. You'll be somewhat sort of close to the area, why not throw Monument Valley in there too? Monument Valley and the whole Upwarp area is amazing too.

I've been invited to my High Schol 25th year reunion in June. My wife and I are thinking of hopping the bike and riding up there.

If we do so it would be a fun and interesting trip. 1200 miles each way.

It would be worth it just to see my class mates faces when I arrived up there on the bike.

Florida, Cocoa Beach. I grew up there and it's still my favorite vacation place. Plus my brother lives there and he spoils me.

 

[DeeZire]

As a self-employed individual, I don't get no stinkin' vacations. On the other hand, as a self-employed individual in the current economy, my whole life is a vacation, interrupted by intermittent periods of work.

I think this year, for vacation, I'll be putting up shelves in my workshop and installing that nice new 9-light backdoor that's been leaned up in my garage for, like, three years. Plus, I might plant some more cactus in my front yard, you know, just to keep the neighbors happy.

Then I'll go on the internet and google Big Sur, perhaps accompanied by my "Carmel - The Sounds of the Surf" CD.

 

[john-the-author]

Philly for a few days this weekend and the beginning of next week for my oldest stepdaughter's receipt of her Ph.D.

Southern Oregon this summer sometime to see the Oregon Caves, Crater Lake, maybe somewhere else.

I'm planning on a cruise some time next year, but not sure when.

 

[_Lynn_]

Right now, anywhere would be fine for a vacation. I don't see one happening in my future though.
If I could afford one, I've always wanted to take an Alaskan Cruise.

 

[JAMESBJOHNSON]

There are only two places on the planet worth visiting twice...Spain and Savannah, Georgia.

 

[ishtat]

I live within ten minutes of several of Sydney's northern beaches so that really wouldn't be a holiday.

My next trip planned is to the Iron Ranges which is a mountainous area of tropical rain forest in north Queensland about 6 hours flight from Sydney. Going overseas in December for the Christmas markets in Germany followed by family get together in England.

 

[matriarch]

The wife's parents are coming over to Blighty for a long overdue visit in June, and while they're here, we're taking a flying visit to Dublin for a couple of days. It'll be fun.
