in Chit-Chat
Just thought it would be fun to share details of any upcoming trips you are taken (or maybe just got back from!)

We took a 8 day Caribbean cruise in September and didn't think we would be able to take another vacation before we had another baby, but we booked a trip to Clearwater beach, FL with a day at Magic Kingdom.. we leave in 35 days! Needless to say, it is a push to lose a few more pounds before we go and build our endurance for a LONG day of walking at DW!

Tell me about yours!

    17 weeks and 6 days until I take my lovely little family to menorca for the week... Not my preference of holiday destination but the other half and kids will love it.

    Peru in September. Backpacking ruins for 9 days, camping in the Amazon for a week, and a week in Chachapoyas hiking and exploring. Oh and going to a chocolate museum and making my own chocolate bars.

    Taking my 8yr old son to San Diego and Sea World. Got an ocean front hotel room. I had a mini-heart attack at the price, but I figure what the hell? Not everyday you get to sleep with the window open listening to waves!
    Leaving in 37 days!! :bigsmile:

    Sad to say that my only vacation planned right now is to San Diego- Comic Con. To makes things even more boring, I live in San Diego. :ohwell:

    My daughter (25) and I have yearly passes to Sea World, great place just to go and walk and walk. Love Sea World. But food is expensive. Ssshhhhh secret, you can sneak food and drinks in. Even when they check your bags, they dont care as long as its not glass.

    Our last vacation was in March, we drove from NH to PA and left our 18 month old daughter with her grandparents (my In-laws) chilled out for a couple days and then flew down to New Orleans for a few days then back to PA and Finally back home.

    We indulged quite heavily in the local food and drink and had a good time. We skyped with our daughter and it was heartbreaking and apparently she was very unhappy to stop seeing us after we disconnected.

    Next vacation is in July. We are taking a staycation around the 4th. I have a 10k on the 3rd that ends with Running out of the Giant Inflatable Patriots helmet and across the 50 yard line in Gilette. There's a lot of fun family things to do there around the race and there are fireworks after the race.

    Other than than, it's just day trips or chillin.... My wife has a day off before the week and has to go back to work on the 5th. I have the 5th off so maybe I'll go run around Walden Pond or something...

    Next planned trip is Eastern Caribbean cruise from Port Canaveral in Sept over my birthday going to the Bahamas, St. Thomas and St. Maartin.

    I'm trying to squeak in another short weekend bahamas trip if my husband will go for it :bigsmile:

    One of the perks of living 30 minutes from the port!

    Have you ever thought of renting a vacation property? Probably too late for this trip, but something to consider in the future.. it is usually a little cheaper than a hotel and you have a kitchen to make your own food and save on money!

    OMG! Can you please go up to Paradise Point in St thomas and have some conch fritters and a bushwacker for me??? =)

    We went to Nassau, St Thomas, Tortola and Antigua on our last trip. Great itinerary.. but we have done St Maarten before on a different cruise. What do you have planned for your excursions?
