    we are flying up to northern Saskatchewan where my family owns an island, for about 4 days.

    4 days of no outside contact, just us, the cabin, the water, the speedboats, and lazin on the dock.

    (the only way to maintain any outside contact up there is by SAT phone).

    it will be heavenly.

    SAT phone and the camera feeds I have installed...

    Wisconsin Dells in July.
    which resort??

    I am from chicago, so we had originally planned a weekend at the wilderness and a weekend in lake geneva, but canceled both to do a week on a real beach in FL.

    Miami in July. I have worn 2 bathing suits in the past 10 years and both times I wore a cover-up or shorts the whole time over it. My goal is to be able to go coverless with confidence this year.
    you can do it, girl!

    Oh yeah i've been to the area before, love Xcaret! I think we are going to try to do Chichen Itza this time if we have time (already done Tulum). Have either of you been, is it worth it?
    No, but we met a couple who did and they said it was a long day. Long drive to and from, lots of walking while there.. It is one of the seven wonders but they didn't make it sound all that worth it.
    That was why my family and I opted for Tulum instead of Chicen Itza, the time involved.

    Hmmm yeah we've been debating, its about 2.5hrs each way so def a long day, and I only have like 4.5 days total....hmmmmmmm. Thanks for the feedback!
    When I went to Playa I was limited on what I could do since I was all bandaged up from surgery on my hand. When I went back the next year with my mom we stayed in Puerto Morelos, a nice little town just north of Playa. We did the Dolphin Adventure, ATV/Zip Line excursion, and I did a TON of scuba diving.

    Ohhh, awesome!! We honeymooned in Playa del Carmen!

    If you are looking for things to do, I highly recommend checking out XCaret for the day!

    I second this.

    My dad and I loved it. We did it 15+ years ago and still talk about it. Everywhere you look were oceans of jungle with ruins rising out of it. Stunning. But I also geek out over ruins.

    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!
    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?

    OMG! I love Bushwackers!!! Going to New Orleans, LA and Perdido Key, Fl next month and can't wait to have a couple Bushwackers!

    My next trip is to New York City in mid-July. I'll be doing some apartment-hunting while I'm there since I'll be moving there for good shortly after that. Also visiting some friends and going to see Jinkx Monsoon's off-Broadway show, The Vaudevillians and probably catch a few other shows while I'm there too, if I have the money. I'm quite excited!

    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:

    You're sad about goin' to Comic Con?!!!
