We are headed to St Pauls and the mall of America. Nothing too exciting but it's to see friends I haven't seen in three years, so I am excited!

Yeah, or in this case I am taking my responsibility with me! Poor kid gets to fly, again, but hopefully it will be less traumatic than last time. She got sick, threw up in the morning before the flight once, and six times on the plane! At 15 months...

It's absolutely wonderful! No agenda. No appointments. Want to nap? Ok. Want to go to the movies? Ok.

Also, we try new restaurants every year plus go back to our favorite haunts. That's also part of the fun!

I'll be going to the Isle of Wight, as I do every year. It's a wonderful place... I really love it there. Here's a website with some fantastic pictures of the Island:

is that the famous place with the music festivalS?

xaphania · #14 (**permalink**) 06-12-2007, 11:32 AM

Yeah, the Isle of Wight festival. I think it just happened this past weekend - there was some coverage on the television.

I'd love to go to one - but I don't think I could hack the camping aspect of it!

Fizz · #15 (**permalink**) 06-18-2007, 06:06 PM

Doesn't really look like we'll be going anywhere this summer, except maybe a Water Park, but in November we are supposed to be going to DisneyLand for my birthday.

kitsch_k · #16 (**permalink**) 06-19-2007, 08:53 AM

yeah!!one of my greatest wishes is to go to a music festival..im just a little hesitant over the hygienic aspect of it LOL. i mean...so many people so little toilets!!!!!

PrettyinPink · #17 (**permalink**) 06-19-2007, 12:36 PM

I went to Texas this past weekend and am just planning a few beach trips with my girlfriends. I just started a new job, so I can't really take any time off this summer. I'll just have to save up and go some where good in the winter!

kitsch_k · #18 (**permalink**) 06-20-2007, 10:51 AM

yeah maybe u can go skiing in the winter prettyinpink!!

PrettyinPink · #19 (**permalink**) 06-20-2007, 11:18 AM

I would love to plan a ski trip! I love to ski, but didn't get to take a trip this past season. The ex-bf was being a jerk about it...which is why he is now the ex-bf!

My boyfriend and I might be going to Key West for our anniversary! I can't wait, I've never been there and it's only a 5 hour drive from where we are!

Fizz · #23 (**permalink**) 07-02-2007, 01:20 PM

I've been all over the US, but have never been to New York, California, Florida, Alaska or Hawaii. My goal is to visit every single state in my lifetime, unfortunately like I said I won't be going anywhere this year.

PrettyinPink · #24 (**permalink**) 07-26-2007, 11:29 AM

This thread is from awhile ago, but I wanted to see how everyone's trips were (if you've already gone on them) and if anyone has planned new trips. I know I said I wasn't going to go anywhere until the winter, but I am getting antsy! I need to save up before I take a big vacation though.

So, how were the trips? Plan anything new and fun?

lcsamano · #25 (**permalink**) 07-26-2007, 12:06 PM

Went to Sacramento for a few days. Wasn't much of a vacation since it was for my daughters bowling tournament. However, we are going to go to Hawaii around thanksgiving time.

Fizz · #26 (**permalink**) 07-26-2007, 01:18 PM

Wahoo, the kids are going to go to their Grandmothers for a week, I get a vacation after all, lol!

KeLLi · #27 (**permalink**) 07-26-2007, 08:56 PM

I went to the Bahamas in June and a few trips to my parents house at the beach.

kitsch_k · #28 (**permalink**) 07-30-2007, 08:43 AM

my mom and i plan to go to london but we hope our visas get approved..we'll know in 15 days!!!

*fingers crossed***

medako · #29 (**permalink**) 07-31-2007, 09:21 AM

no where. We have a toddler and it just doesn't seem like a good time to try and travel. So, we're just staying home this summer. We did/do have a few weddings to attend, but they're fairly close - but will at least give us a weekend away from home.

kitsch_k · #30 (**permalink**) 07-31-2007, 09:22 AM

honestly..with how busy life is right now..a weekend..even a day away from it all is already good enough for me...a spa trip...whatever gets ur mind off everything that's stressful.

PrettyinPink · #31 (**permalink**) 07-31-2007, 04:06 PM

Kitsch, a London trip sounds like so much fun! I love love love London! Actually, I could possibly be taking a little trip there soon myself because I found a great deal on Lufthansa's website-- Washington, DC to London for just $229. I think I could swing that if I could stay at a friend's place over there. I think you're in NYC and I noticed some great deals from there to Europe too. Something to keep in mind for when you find out about your visas!

I'm getting excited, I just need to get a couple friends on board now.

kitsch_k · #32 (**permalink**) 08-01-2007, 08:50 AM

wow thanks for the tips prettyinpink..london is such a mystery..it's this really old place but it has so much modernity injected in it..its amazing and i really hope i get to visit that place somehow someday!!!

PrettyinPink · #33 (**permalink**) 08-01-2007, 03:08 PM

I hope you get to go too! It is an amazing city and there is some great shopping to boot!

kitsch_k · #34 (**permalink**) 08-02-2007, 08:47 AM
