QOTD Wednesday (Travel)

What's next on your travel calendar? Is it for work or for fun?

Re: QOTD Wednesday (Travel)

  • Minneapolis for Thanksgiving with my oldest brother,  My youngest brother is going with me. I am little scared because I tend to get distract and get lost or lose things (like iPods or wallets), and this is when C is with me.  My little brother is the same way.  C was telling me that he was going to higher a nanny for the two of us.   I leave next Tuesday and come back early the following Monday.

  • Other than general traipsing around the province for Christmas, we're planning on taking a vacation in January to a resort somewhere in Ontario for a little bit of a babymoon getaway.  Not sure where yet, but we might head out the Kingston/Ottawa way, as the next trip after that (or maybe before?) will be to Mount Tremblant in Quebec for Tim's birthday.  Clearly I will just be chalet sitting, but Derek will get in some awesome snowboarding!

    We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?

  • Eric brought up maybe taking a vacation in January/February for a break. It's all a pipe dream currently but if we do. I'm not sure where we would go. Probably where ever the flights would be cheapest. :)

  • London is next on the agenda for us.  Can't wait!  I may have to take a work trip out to LA in December.  We're also planning a visit to FIL and SMIL in Florida in January and maybe a trip to Vegas in February.

  • Christmas in Michigan for me. We're not going for long, but I'm looking forward to it. My mom's ecstatic--I haven't been to Michigan for Christmas since 2006. She's already planning a bunch of stuff for meals (tamales for Christmas dinner!) and is probably already going all out with gifts.

    After that, we might go to Austin in the early spring, and we'll definitely be going back to Cancun in April.

  • We've talked about going to a Caribbean resort in January or February, but no firm plans yet. It's a little intimidating to think about traveling with Darian now. V has mentioned that we ought to take my parents and/or his parents along if we travel (they'd be THRILLED). I have to admit that it would make admits easier, but the idea of spending a week straight with my ILs is not that appealing so I'm kind of in denial lol. 

    Otherwise, we also want to go to Hong Kong so Darian can meet his only great grandma.  But that's an even longer flight! Oy.

  • As you all know, I am headed to Disney on Saturday! I am not excited or anything. It's funny, I think I am looking forward to being on vacation more then where we are going.  I'm sure once I get there that will change.

    This is for pure fun.  Honestly, this whole trip was a gift to us, otherwise we would NOT be going.  DH and I are very thankful for it, and will have a blast regardless.  The trip will have my MIL, BIL and his 2 kids (they are pre-teens), and the best part my BFF and his partner are coming Sat - Thursday. MIL has offerred to take the boys a couple of evenings so DH and I can get some adult time.  Yay.

  • The only thing we have planned right now is TGiving in New Mexico at the ILs.  It's a 6 hour drive.  We don't usually travel much in the winter. 

    I'm sure DH will be wanting to plan next summer very soon - we put monthly calendars on a bulletin board and mark off our plans for the entire summer.

  • We don't have any plans to travel outside of CO in the near future. We'll probably send a few days in either Breckenridge or Steamboat this winter, but that's about it.

  • Immediately next is Ottawa and New York for a week.  I'll be working for a few days in our office in NYC, but can't wait to catch up with family and friends.  And shop, lots and lots of shopping :)

    After that is a week in the Maldives at the end of January.  A much needed pure relaxation vacation.

  • DH has been plotting a return to Mexico or somewhere equally awesome for our anniversary in August. We'll be leaving the munchkin home with my mom if we do go, and probably only going 4 or 5 days. Fine by me! We're not so interested in doing a trip with him just yet, and my mom is usually good with kiddos. She does keep forgetting that she agreed to take him, though, so it might be interesting. I refuse to leave him with my ILs, though. They're not so great with the kids.

  • We leave for Vegas in the morning! 

    After that we have a trip to Alaska for a long weekend in Feb. for a friends wedding and then we're meeting my parents in Vegas for a long over presidents day in Feb.

    Next big trip out of the country is Lithuania and Russia in April/May.

  • We are taking a short road trip in early December. DH's niece is graduation from law school so we're going to her graduation. Other than that, we may go to Vegas in January but that's still up in the air.

  • Next up is Las Vegas for Christmas.  My sister is coming, too.  It will certainly be fun.

  • We're heading up to San Francisco for a long weekend in December and I've never been there so I'm really excited!  The only other firm plan is Vegas in February, my friend has a conference there and I'm going to go out and meet her for a girls weekend.

    As soon as we start to get on our feet here, we'll start planning our next big trip, I'm thinking Japan or New Zealand. 

    Now jumping domestically.

    Well that was a crazy couple of years.

  • We're headed to Spain for Thanksgiving weekend for fun.  These are our last 6 months here in Germany so we hope to get at least one trip in each month.

  • No real plans right now.  Maybe not until a wedding next June in Toronto?  I don't have any time off at the same time as DH until next summer so not much opportunity.

  • We are hoping to get to my hometown for Christmas, but that is completely up in the air still. We will have to wait and see.
