travel

Okay - traveling is "my thing". I absolutely LOVE to travel and especially now that the kiddos are old enough to schlep their own bags... and if I am not actually traveling... I am planning trips. Sometimes they actually come into fruition, but some of the time, they are just "virtual travels" on the internet.

I use SideStep, Southwest, FunJet, or Apple Vacations and just start traveling. Almost always it involves a beach. Ideally, it has cabana boys that bring me fruity beverages...right now, I am in the midst of planning two different vacations. The first is for the beginning of June... it would be the kiddos, me and possibly my niece. My niece has never left the state of Minnesota... so I am debating between the dreaded Disney, San Antonio or my latest idea - San Diego. The second trip would be over Thanksgiving... we had such a wonderful time in Jamaica before Christmas that we want to go somewhere tropical... I love the planning stage.... I research the weather, the hotels... (all inclusive in this case), what are the people like? What about the food? What can we do while we are there? So much to learn and discover....

Who wouldn't want to travel... just imagine - if I could find a place that I could lay on the beach in a hammock and get a hot stone massage while pina coladas are being brought to me just as soon as my glass gets empty.... I am ready to get on a plane now!
