Vacations

Love to go to the Rocky Mountains and ride the train. Also, visit Alaska

Mombasa: Loved the beach & safari.
India (as backpacker): Long time ago did a backpack trip to India. Interesting country - lots of noise, dirt, smell of different kind, etc. but the people are really really nice. Would love to go as normal tourist now since can't lift the backpack anymore. ;-)
Italy: Very nice place. Didn't think much of Venice - it was smelly as hell & not my cup of tea. Florence was the best.
Paris: Very short trip (while visiting Italy). Really nice city and Eiffel Tower IMHO is something special.
Dubai/Abu Dhabi: Concrete jungle but I love all the stuff they have done personally (not so much my wife). Gardens, malls, skyscrapers, etc. Loved all of it.

I am sure there are others I will remember soon.

I'd like to explore the Lesser Antilles sometime soon. Maybe Guadeloupe or Grenada.

These days? I long for summer when I can gather up my gardening tools and venture out into the wilds of my yard. I dig in the dirt, weed, water, fertilize.....
And when I'm done, I travel up to my front porch glider where my husband awaits me with an ice cold beer. We sit there and admire the flowers, look around at the neighborhood and watch everyone drive or walk by. Sometimes they stop and share their adventures with us!
Yeah....... that's a real vacation! I get to sleep in my own bed too!

Australia. My sister lives there but I've never been. Someday.

New Zealand tops my list, and if I make it that far, I'd visit Australia, too. Not likely to happen, but I can dream. There are plenty of places here in the US that I haven't visited, so there are other adventures still to have.

I have always wanted to dive the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. I don't think that will happen now.

Loved Cuba, Italy, Puerto Rico.... Also loved New York. I actually got lost on my way to a Yankee's game and was helped by a very beautiful stranger.

I have never been to an NFL game so that is on my bucket list too.

Mexico was amazing and id go back in a minute!
Jungles, ancient ruins, great service...i saw a scorpion and possibly a monkey!
(It was dark so im not certain it was a monkey but it looked like one)

In Mexico i flew out of a spotless airport guarded by tough men with rifles and baggage carriers who were happy to go the extra mile for a decent tip back to screaming hordes of shitbags the moment we disembarked in Queens...hilarious to witness the transition from embattled Mexico to 'GREATEST CITY IN THE WORLD!!!'

If i didnt live in NY i would never visit this filthy cesspool

Mexico is professional at the tourist game and they have my business...
The people were fantastic as well and lots of them speak English...pretty well too!
Though to be honest they screw up pronunciations pretty badly a lot and its very funny and cute to hear

Mexico for me
