With a 9 year old I have no idea. Too big a variable.

Have you asked her where she'd most like to go?

Yep. I either get, "I don't know" or, at a suggestion, "that sounds cool." She thinks a trip around the US in an RV sounds great. Me (since I have to drive), not so much.

She's fairly mature for her age and really loves science, animals and museums.

I should say that part of this is kind of a trip that is ours and ours alone; someplace neither of us has ever been. This doesn't mean I never want to go back to those places, I just want it to be new for both of us. Immediately, this nixes Australia, Fiji, Hawaii, Mexico, Jamaica, Canada and several states.

A few places I've thought about: Ireland, Galapagos, Greece, France, Spain. If it were safer, I'd love to go to Egypt.

Moonie and Andrew, when is the best time to go to Alaska?
