I'm going to New Orleans and Mississippi in July...and then to Croatia in August for a music festival - wahey!
Some of my favourite ever vacations:
- Nepal (trekking, bumming around the lake in Pokhara, watching my hubby bungee jump off a bridge...)
- Leh in northern India
- New Zealand is just beautiful
- Raileh beach in Thailand
- Trekking and rafting along the Thai-Burmese border
- Istanbul city break
- Lebanon! Vineyards, roman ruins, awesome seafood, Hezbollah museum!
- Varkala beach in southern India
- San Francisco and Santa Barbara city breaks
- Blue Ridge mountains in North Carolina
- Halong bay and Hanoi in Vietnam
Yes, I am very lucky.
Ok, I get New Orleans being on your destination list, but what the hell are you going to see or do in Mississippi? LOL
I love Natchez, MS, especially in the Springtime when the magnolias are blooming and the town gets all decked out in Civil War era costumes and hosts house tours.
Lots of battlefield and historic sites. The mighty river from the top of the bluffs is amazing, you won't get that view in New Orleans.0 -
Heading to the Florida Keys, Dry Tortugas, then to the Bahamas! :drinker:0

CALIFORNIA!! I can't wait. Flying into LA, driving to san diego, Las vegas, then San Francisco.
Been to Florida and wasn't over keen - didn't like Miami, and the keys was ok, Key west was quite nice. Went to the superbowl last year and loved Chicago, and Indianapolis - that was probably my best ever holiday. Went to Montréal a few months ago, and loved that too, and really want to go back to Canada and go to Toronto.
As far as Europe goes - didn't like Milan much - preferred Verona, and not overly keen on Paris. Loved Venice, Amsterdam, Salzburg (Austria), Germany (stayed between Hanover and Hamburg, Geneva. Madrid and Barcelona are nice too. Brussels is ok, Bruges is better, and Luxembourg city is easily overlooked but very pretty.I'm travelling around Europe for 4 months next year! It's only been recently decided, and I'd absolutely love to see Italy and Greece. Has anyone got any suggestions of places I MUST see when there!?
I really want to go to New Orleans and New York.0 -
Hi you asked about Cuba and I am sure you will have a great time
Me n hubby went on a 2 week holiday 1st week at Varadero and the 2nd week was supposed to be Havana.
The all inclusive hotel was full of prostitutes, people having sex in the sea right by the edge of the beach in full view of everyone. there were rent boys sitting on sun loungers discussing their fees. But the worst thing was the amount of paedophiles approaching little girls, it really turned our stomachs.
The hotel we were in, the AC was dripping, the restaurant ...the food was covered in flies we had to put napkins over our heads and food to try to keep the flies from landing on the food. We lived on bread from the bottom of the basket where the flies did not land and bananas because they were still in the skin.
I got so sick that we decided not to carry on to Havana. We spent £2000 to get home it took us around 37 hours with all the internal flights etc. to get back to the UK
But I do know people that have been to different parts of Cuba that have enjoyed the holiday...it was just for us that, is was our worst nightmare. Maybe it was just where we stayed lol!
Club Amigo was the name of the hotel...steer clear!!!
Oh but the nice bit was the beach and sea were beautiful to look at when it wasn`t full of the above people0 -

I know that for some people it's not realistic (I spent many years married to a spendthrift when DS was small and there was no money left for that kind of travel if I wanted to pay the bills and save for retirement). For current DH and me it's a priority and we spend a lot less than others in our income bracket so we can travel. We own one car (DH is retired), I cut DH's hair (he doesn't have much), we rarely go out to eat because we like our home and DH's cooking. We also put everything on hotel and mileage credit cards and pay them off in full. Our last trip, which included 8 hotel nights, business class flights and all food and museum entries, cost us under $2K out of pocket, Of course we don't have a lot of miles or Marriott points left!0 -
