Late QOTD - Wednesday 2/2

On the topic of vacations, what is the next vacation you have planned?  Where to?  What things will you do?  Is it with family, friends or just you and H?

Re: Late QOTD - Wednesday 2/2

  • I have a couple of trips coming up for random things, but we're planning to go to Vegas/Grand Canyon/Lake Mead in November, just the 2 of us, and I can't wait!

    YAY!  How fun!  I'm very excited for you guys. :)

  • We're going to an AI for four or five days in June or July just the two of us.  Not sure where exactly yet.  Mexico, DR, or Jamaica probably. 
  • my parents LOVED the AI they went to in DR.. I can ask them for the name if you want

  • We're still overdue to visit my parents for the holidays, but more than likely we'll be going to visit the IL's because of FIL's stroke. I have a girlfriend from college getting married 3/12, so I'm going to try to make it to that while we're up there. 

    As for "vacations," there's no telling. We don't seem to take them any more.

    Yes please!  The more rec's the better.

  • We are going to Chicago with my parents to visit my brother Memorial Day Weekend.

    My mom also bought me/us a 2 night stay at a B&B in St Marys GA for my birthday so we will be doing that in either March or April. It includes dinner at a local restaurant and a day trip to Cumberland Island.

    We were planning a trip to an AI in Mexico for our 5 year anniversary in May but since I got knocked up we have put that on hold for a few years.

  • DH and I (without James) are going to Ireland in April for 8-10 days.  Can't wait!  I'm in the planning phase now.
  • We are in savings mode this year so sadly, no vacations. We are turning a wedding in Orlando into a opportunity for us to go to the Food & Wine Festival.

  • I don't have anything 100% planned yet. My old roomate's parents have a condo in Destin. We may meet her and her husband there in April for a 3 day weekend. I was invited on a girls cruise in October but am not sure if I'm going or not yet. This year is our year to pay off the credit card and bulk up our savings, so we probably won't plan a trip for the two of us. Kinda sucks but I know it's worth it.

  • I have nothing planned and that makes me sad.  I would like to go somewhere by myself for a change, but I dont know when I'll be able to afford it.

  • Because of JJ's work schedule, we can't ever go to weddings we're invited to. A close family friend is getting married Memorial Day weekend, so we decided to take the week and go to Cincinnati for the wedding, then tour the KY Bourbon Trail since JJ's a Bourbon fanatic. Well, we're still doing the Bourbon Trail, I just won't be doing any tasting :( and we have a couple that is going to do it with us, it's about 3-4 days and 200-ish miles long. Should be interesting at 7 months pregnant! 

    I also found out that my sister is going to host a Baby Shower for me in Cincinnati when we're there, so I'm excited about that, too.

  • We're planning a 7 day cruise in October. The ports are Cozumel, Grand Caymen, and Montego Bay. MIL and SIL are going with us and it's their first cruise.. I'm hoping that H and I can plan a small vacation sometime before then. I had to take 40 hours of unplanned leave when my grandfather passed so I don't know how well that will work out. Next year I really want to go to Vegas.

  • DH's family is going to Universal in March. We're only joining them for two days, but we're going to hit the Wonderful World of Harry Potter and I am over the moon. I can't wait to have butterbeer!

  • we have nothing in the planning stages right now. I do have $400 in United vouchers that expire this summer, so we'll think of something to do with them, although it'll probably be a long weekend kind of trip.
  • We're making vacations out of a bunch of weddings this year.  Virginia this weekend, an AI in Mexico in a couple of weeks, and another AI in Mexico in July.  Possibly a long weekend in Vegas, definitely the annual trip home to NY in the summer, and NY for Christmas.  A fun year coming up!

  • We're planning Europe for October.  The last time we went was 5 years ago so we're itching to get back.  Just not sure which country yet (probably Italy again because I love it there).

  • We're going to San Diego in June for 5 days. A few friends are going too. I love San Diego. We'll visit with friends, explore the city, travel up the coast, head over to Temecula wine country and since I'm going there for a marathon, on Sunday I'll take a 26.2 running tour of the city. lol

    For just the 2 of us we're discussing St. Lucia or Italy. We have sky miles we've been saving. Italy was going to be our honeymoon but we decided that my sanity was more important so I quit my job instead. Once that happened those plans had to be put on hold.

  • We don't have anything planned at this point and we probably won't for a while.  We just spent a crapton of money to get the attic and crawl space of our house insulated.

  • I am going to Denver next weekend for my brother's 25th bday! I can't wait, we are staying in Keystone and going on a sleigh ride!!

    In March, my best friend is coming down and we are going to Tampa to see Kenny Chesney! Her Grandmother got us floor tickets! We are so excited! This is the first time we have spent more than an hour together since I moved!

    H and I want to plan a trip for ourselves sometime this year. Maybe an AI or just down to the Keys for a few days!

  • We're going to NYC for a wedding next month and making a long weekend out of it.. outside of that, we have nothing planned.  We want to take B back to Disney sometime before #2 is born, but I'm not sure when we're going to have time.

  • DH and I were just talking about this since we really don't have much planned.  We do take trips to Orlando to see friends and do the parks a couple times a year, so we'll probably do that this year too.

    I asked DH to look into cruise prices since he kinda wants to take DS on the Disney Cruise.

    We have a wedding in Mexico in October that we may extend our stay to make a vaation out of it too.
