OMG, now that I am actually saving for a trip....dying for it to be tomorrow.
Italy (anywhere and everywhere I can be in 2008) France (mostly Paris and Disneyland in 2008) Scotland (and if I work it right, I can stay with my boss's family in and about Dundee) and the Highlands Ireland London (for the bookstores, that enough would get me there, even if there were not great theatre, music and art) India Egypt to see the Pyramids and the Cairo Museum (but I think this is likely not to happen in my lifetime) I would have loved to go to Egypt circa 1910. Alaska and for the more local and more budget realistic Another tour of the Pacific Northwest, flying up and driving down Hearst Castle (it's been years) Monterey Bay Aquarium (never been, shameful) Bodega Bay In the meantime, in my quest to become healthier and drop pounds as well as build up an exercise regimen, I've started walking (easy and free) and my goal is to do the walks in this book. It's daunting, back in the day and many many pounds lighter work cronies and I would walk on our lunch hour and often would climb up to Coit Tower and back down through North Beach and back to the Financial District. The thought of this now makes me sweat and wheeze just thinking of it, those stairs, yikes, my knees. This will also give me an excuse to re-learn the city I call home, so much changed in the 7 years I was gone and I don't know it any more. Can I go to Italy now? Pretty Please?

HI!
|
We do have our Panama Canal crossing scheduled for may of '08 however, I have a sneaking suspicion that Chris will not be able to get 2+ weeks off of work during that time. We'll see. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Snowflake,
If you want to go to London for the bookstores, you'd better bump it to the top of your list. Brick and mortar media outlets (that includes book stores, record stores etc) are dying just as fast on that side of the pond as they are here.

8/30/14 - Disneyland -10k or Bust.

Have you looked into Argentina? From what the travel pro's are saying it's a great destination and a great deal vs the US dollar right now.
Right now I have booked: June to Anaheim/Vegas (probably not your top get away spot) Sept to Dublin, Ireland With a tentative Paris for Summer '08 |
