What vacation plans have you and your family?

Penguin · 05-24-11, 10:17 AM

Me and the Frau are moving to a new apartment - that's how we'll spend most of the summer: packing, carrying boxes, painting, etc...

If we both have some time left, we'll do a spontaneous trip, probably to Northern Europe. Either we will raid Vendor's country and be in the outdoors or we'll do a city trip, Copenhagen and Helsinki are still on our list. Maybe a combination of both, depending on how much need for recreation we have.

You are welcome many of your countrymen, has a "decent" time liked Sweden that you know ..... and here it is beautiful in many cases, with both warmth and closeness to the sea and nature,

Meteorite hunting for a 1946 fairly well documented Meteorite.
the plan is to hunt in the day, camp over a few days and Catch
the Orionid meteor shower in October (21st) , assuming clear skies.

Tack! When you come through my town on your way south, send me a message and I'll put some beer in the fridge - or in the pub

Vendor, if you reach Slovenia, let me know. Stop by in Bled or Ljubljana I'll give you a tour

Me, I'll be going to Portoroz almost every week, I do study there so I'll see the seaside quite often. Take a swim or two after tests

AVGWarhawk · 05-24-11, 10:52 AM

Beach!

US beach. Ocean City MD. Been going to this vacation spot since 1973. Loved it when I was growing up. I give my kids the same opportunity to enjoy summer beach time memories like I did.

We will do the weekend day trips as well. Generally places of historical significance or learning value.

I think the Frau (Berbunch, not Kaluen) and I are just going to do a long-weekend city break, whether or not we'll drag the kids along is another matter!

Thinking of York as it's not a million miles to travel, and is still very nice.

Would love to go to the Lakes for the umpteenth time (bar last year - Herefordshire!) but the Frau, despite what she says, really doesn't like either rain, or walking far!

Have just glanced at couchsurfing.org, and it looks great, would love to just grab a flight and kip on a couch!

But again, the Frau would disapprove.

PS Congrats, Chad.

Then you need "mission" persuasion begin, or a compromise ... to take place so then, resolves itself,as I hope for a quick easy solution

Congrats Chad

the ride was great, the line, not so

Great ... which is never wrong with an ice-cold,

no means, no family, no holiday... simple.

Chad · 05-24-11, 10:54 AM

I just got back from my vacation with my girlfriend to Orlando, Florida and a visit with Hogwarts. Needless to say, she's as big of a fan with Harry Potter as I am with History, so this was quite a trip for both of us.

It got even bigger, when, in front of Hogwarts castle...
