Summer Vaca?

[CuseTroop]

Honestly, all she does is talk about it , but I have yet to comprehend where it is or the date.

If you need any Finger Lakes tips, let me know!

Antigua and of course Saratoga, the August place to be.

 

[Headmaster 9]

Yearly hiking & biking trip to Acadia National Park in Maine, Little League World Series & front porch...have to save our pennies for all the fees in Atlantis

La jolla for 10 glorious days in june-july.

In June: Warsaw, Krakow, Auschwitz, Birkenau and Berlin. Not a classic "vacation" trip... but places I've always wanted to visit.

In September: Sicily and the Amalfi Coast. Total change of pace... but two other places I've never visited.

What a show-off!

Just when I thought Hawaii was cool, you have to bust out with this? BUT... can you get a Blue Hawaiian in Warsaw or Berlin?

I was expecting a Virgin Galactic flight to the moon.

But did I say I was going to Hawaii?

Bastads... ruining my sense of superiority.

2 weeks at the Jersey shore (as well as all the weekends during the summer). Just actually got back from a week in the Bahamas with the Mrs (we did Grand Bahama, so unfortunately can't provide too much in the way of specific tips for Nov). The beach was great though, and I'm sure that is probably comparable to Nassau. Also, if you like rum drinks, you'll be in heaven. I recommend picking up a big bottle of rum (cheap) and a case of beer (not so cheap) as soon as you get there and you'll be all set (at least for a few days...).

I is poor Oh Lord

June- France (Wife is speaking at a conference and I get a free ride)
4th of July- Virginia
Rest of Summer- Cheriehoop's backyard!!

 

[ssbriefcase]

Vegas next week. Telluride and a few other mountain weekend getaways this summer. Like Troop, nothing major just saving up for Atlantis..

 

[NKR1978]

Did a huge group trip to Vegas in March for five nights.

Austin for a few days in the beginning of June for a food vacation. It's also my "new" place for the year, since I try to go somewhere new every year.

Fire Island for a few nights in July. A friend and his husband own a house there and let me stay by myself for a long weekend each year.

Then back to Vegas in August. Staying at Encore for a few nights by myself to relax, eat some decent dinners, hang at the pool and play blackjack.

 

[rhcuse]

Starting my Adk 46er in July with a crew including a guy that will finish his on Haystack. Should get 5 or 6 summits on this first trip.

 

[Ghost]

Three months in the UK, and weekends wherever the trains can take me - some of it will be for work though. If I can convert one person a day to becoming a Syracuse hoops fan we will be by far the most popular team in the UK by the time I leave according to my calculations.

We did the Amalfi Coast a few years ago, Joyce.

You'll love it.

Be sure to do a side trip to Pompei.

Just did 5 days in Charleston. Foodie heaven.

This summer: OBX and New England and Jersey Shore side trips.

We drove into East Berlin through Checkpoint Charlie back in '86. It was like traveling back in time. Buildings still pocked with bullet holes from WWII.

Also visited Dachau. That was extremely disturbing. I cannot imagine what Auschwitz must be like.

September is best time to visit Italy. Weather is fabulous and the crowds are gone (to the extent that they are ever gone anymore).

Enjoy!

For probably the 39th year, Cape Cod. Baxters, Chart Room, rinse repeat. I'll be on the lookout for Jake Crouthamel in Barnstable to get his thoughts on hopefully our new AD

Pompei is definitely on the agenda.

After you asked, I suddenly realized Pompei is a curious epilogue to my June trip of "destruction and lost lives" --- although it is far less horrific than that earlier trip will be. For those who may have forgotten, Krakow was the site of "Schindler's List," and the Krakow area was home to many of the Nazi's worst crimes against humanity.

Got a nice trip this summer to San Diego. I understand it was discovered by the Germans in 1904.

When are you going? I will be in La Jolla 6/26 to 7/6

Been to Napoli, Pompei and Mt. Vesuvius. World's 2nd oldest amphitheater, but the people frozen in time...will never forget that image. Amazing place to see.

The ride up Vesuvius in the big wheeled vehicles was fun. We did it in a major rain storm, thought they guy was going to drive us off the side of the mountain on the way back down.
