You spent the whole year on vacation.

My wife and I love to travel, but we both work. So, I found it interesting that we did all of this in 2003:

Boca Raton
Paris
Freeport
Bermuda
New Orleans
Charleston
San Antonio

These were 2nd-3rd times to these destinations.

Your travels made for interesting reading...one question .... why didn't we see any of you in kansas??

highbay Jan 18th, 2004 05:48 PM

Please tell me what I would see in Kansas. I am really not familiar with this state and I am always looking for someplace different to travel to. Please tempt me to visit.

I am probably missing some, but here goes:

New York City a few times, Florida (St. Pete, Orlando, and a wee bit south of Daytona), Atlanta, Charlotte, Nags Head/Kitty Hawk, New Orleans, Peru, Argentina, Mexico (twice) and Brazil.

that may be it?

first time in I don't remember how many years I didn't cross the Atlantic though.

So far this year Nags Head, and planning a trip to San Francisco, also Oshkosh WI for the huge EAA airshow (a fly in, and I should have my ticket by then). I was thinking of a trip to New Zealand with a friend but that may wait until next winter - way too much going on on the home front & currently there's no way I can take 2-3 weeks off work. dunno about the rest of the year, I'll play it by ear. Would like to visit some friends in Germany while they still live there... (peep!)

Well, aren't you guys all the lucky ones?

Here's where I've been last year:

Every week drove from Rochester NY to Detroit and back for work.

May - Weekend in NYC to hear my kid play at Lincoln Center.

July - Went alone to the Adirondacks with the kids for a week because spouse had to work.

Not the best year I guess...Oh well, better luck this year perhaps.
