Where did you go that ended up being your best ever vacation and why? I'd LOVE to travel this year, or early next, and am looking for fun ideas and places. :O)

    Dubai! I was visiting some friends and it was just such a great place to relax and play! Their malls are insane and they have these incredible 5 star spas in hotels. It's just really luxurious! I can't recommend it enough! :)

    Torn between

    - Greece: a day or 2 in Athens is all you need...then onto Santorini and Rhodes. Would love to go back and visit some of the other islands.
    - And Hawaii!! Can't wait to get back to Kauai.

    On my bucket list still are Australia and New Zealand.

    Edinburgh, Scotland, or maybe Prague, Czech Republic. In the US, when I traveled up highway 1 in Cali with my sis. We started in San Diego, then up to Monterey, then into San Fran, then over to Yosemite.

    Orlando. We did Disney and Universal Studios, which we both ok, but my favorite was Sea World and Discovery Cover where we swam with dolphins and snorkled. I love animals and that was a great time. When I get the weight off I am taking the family to Atlantis and we will swim with the dolphins again.

    My best vacation so far was a trip to Puerto Vallarta with my best friend. We stayed in a small Mexican hotel in old town, ate street food and walking all over the place. It was awesome.

    Iceland! We're going back for our 3rd trip this fall. Glaciers, geysers, volcanoes, nice people, yummy food. Lots of good hiking. It's our favorite place on Earth. And, there's good travel deals out there! It's only 4.5 hours from the US. :):)

    Cancun in 2007 and 2009. Stayed at Riu las palace de america (something like that). Beautiful hotel, beach and delicious food. I visited Excaret. Paradise on earth. My 7 yr old wants to go back. Can't decide if I want to go back there or visit Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico or another hot spot.:happy:

    When I was 17 I went the bus station and asked where I could go for 30$. I ended up in Baltimore, then hitch hiked back to knoxville. It was an adventure. I got rides on motorcycles, big rigs, police cars, and horses. Scary at times, should have taken money for food.... but it was great.

    Hawaii in '07 & '08.
    The Big Island is the place to see the power of this planet by watching to lava flow & make the Big Island even bigger. Where all but two of the world’s climate zones generate everything from lush rain forests to volcanic deserts, snow-capped mountaintops to beautiful black sand beaches.
    There are other islands to explore:
    Kauai - From the soaring cliffs to the vast chasms, Kauai embraces the senses like no other destination.
    Oahu - timeless beauty that blends with the modern luxuries of today.
    Molokai - Serene seascapes, unspoiled coastlines, untamed wilderness. This is an island that stays true to its Hawaiian traditions, tucked away from the hustle of the outside world.
    Lanai - Relax and rejuvenate in a place that has earned the name, “Hawaii’s Most Enticing Island.”
    Maui - From its heavenly beaches to its scenic natural wonders, there are plenty of reasons why it has been voted “Best Island”
    But I will always be drawn to the Big Island & hope to move there when my husband retires.

    Myrtle Beach a few years ago. We had a really good time, and our daughters had a blast. Watching my daughters play and have fun together was the best thing ever!!!!

    So hard to narrow it down to one. Loved Puerto Vallarta last year. Been to Mexico 4 times. Been fabulous every time.

    In the 90's. Used to love the driving vacations we used to go on when all the girls were home. Disneyland on a budget.

    1992. Honeymoon in Victoria B.C.

    Went to Italy in 1977. That was fun. Single. Went with two girls. Staying in Hostels. Partying on a budget.

    I toured Europe with a musical performing group in college. Four weeks of non-stop performances and sight-seeing, it was amazing.
