    My dream vacation is a little... different. There's a 3 week trail riding trip that a number of horse associations put together every year, and they ride through the west from Texas north for 3 weeks. Every few days you stop in a town to shower & pick up supplies, but you camp outside every night and just be with your horse (and 100+ other riders and their horses).

    That's my dream vacation. My horse, the west, the stars... and hopefully some single cowboys ;)

    Ouestion of the Day: 6/21

    What would your dream vacation be?

    My dream holiday (vacation) would be to New York shopping and sightseeing for 5 days. Florida to the theme/water parks 2 weeks and then Huvafen Fushi, Maldives for 3 weeks with my boy/f. It is like pure paradise with your own hut.

    What would your dream vacation be?

    hmmmm I actually have a million places I would like to go so this is so hard for me! But I think my dream vacation would be a month just exploring and sightseeing europe! It would be fantastic to just spend all the money I want and just get away from "real life" and just see different cultures!!! I wish I could really do this!!!

    I'm not really sure where it would be, maybe a few places. But it would include scuba diving, hiking, sightseeing, and lots of different foods that I normally wouldn't eat. Jamaica, Italy, Colorado, the rainforest. I just can't pick one

    Hmm - I'd LOVE to be able to do one really long "around the world" trip. Fly to each continent, then vagabond it to everywhere we could until we were ready to move on.

    Oh wow I don't know which I would pick for my dream vacation. It would be between the Grand Canyon, Niagara Falls, or a Safari somewhere. If I had to choose it would be a Safari.

    Hi everybody! I missed yesterday's question - oops!

    My dream vacation would be to spend a month in Italy and another month in Greece. I want to really experience the cultures there and don't think I can do that in only a week or so. I also would like to trace the trip Odysseus supposedly took on his return home from the Trojan war (I'm a dorky English/ Literture teacher, can you tell?).

    I want to travel so bad!!! I guess my number one pick would be Egypt. I would love to go to Italy or Austrailia too. I don't want to do the "touristy" things though. I want to be immersed in the culture. Awwww someday.....

    Hubby and I have a 5 year plan to make it over to Europe for some traveling. Greece and Italy are the places I am most looking forward to. Especially for the cuisine, wine, beaches and fashion!! He wants to do some sightseeing and hit up some museums, I guess I could fit that in ;) We make time to travel every year or so and our place of choice is Akumal ( just south of Cancun). That place is heaven on earth and I highly recommend it. Haven't been able to get away this year because of school :(

    What would your dream vacation be?

    Everyone mentions out of the Country, but I'd rather just go to the Colorado mountains and spend a while enjoying the snow and snowboarding!! I've lived in Florida practically my whole life so I am used to the sunshine and beaches lol

    I’m honestly not MUCH of a vacationer…but if I had to DREAM about it…my perfect vacation really could be anywhere as long as it contained the following 4 items…

    1) Weather that’s warm in the fall/winter
    2) A pool that has a bar I can swim up to and procure an adult beverage
    3) Myself being able to wear a 2 piece bathing suit without frightening TOO many people
    4) Daily horseback rides on a beach

    I don’t think that’s asking for much!! :drinker:

    I am a huge history nut and Italy is the place that interests me the most. I have always wanted to go, but like most people money is the issue :( Lately I have also wanted to go to a nice tropical island and enjoy a relaxing time at the beach.

    I love to travel and being able to sit in an airline seat again without feeling uncomfortable or self-coconscious is a major motivator/target of mine.

    Ever since I saw the Indian Ocean Islands episode of Globe Trekker I’ve wanted to go. It’s not a place for the overweight though. There are a lot of outdoorsy things to do and I’d want to be fit so I can run all over the islands, literally. “Off the east coast of Africa, are a paradise on earth. With superb resorts, sun-kissed beaches, and sparkling turquoise seas - countless Africans, Indians, Europeans, and even pirates, have all settled in this timeless, tropical location.” (Globe Trekker)

    I would also like to travel down the Mekong River in Southeast Asia. Stretching roughly 2,600 miles from Tibet to the South China Sea, the Mekong flows through six nations—China, Myanmar (Burma), Laos, Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam. (National Geographic)

    Question of the Day: 6/22

    Payday! When there's money in the bank, are you a better saver or spender? What's your splurge of choice?

    what a good question ;)
    Unfortunately I am a splurger...for instance, today is payday for me...as soon as I get my paycheck I'm going shopping...looking for those new crocs for my daughter and there's a summer dress at Dillards I've been eyeing for a while, I'm hoping it's on sale (with some snazzy matching shoes of course)

    No Splurges for me, our bank is tight right now especially with a 3 month old! I don't save nor spend lol IF i do splurge it's usually something for my daughter like clothes, toy, or something. I am awaiting the day when I can splurge again though lol

    For me, it’s a little bit of both. I get paid once a month which is really helpful. I pay my bills in one fell swoop and what ever money is left over is what I have to spend. I do like to shop but I’m not compulsive (like my mom) and I think it’s because of her that I don’t fancy too much “stuff”. On the other hand, I’ll spend $$$ for face crème or a piece of fish so I guess it’s all subjective.

    My splurge of choice is… wait for it… food! I used to eat out several times a day which is certainly one of the reasons I’m where I’m at today. Now, when I talk about splurging on food, I mean Chilean Sea Bass or soft, fluffy lettuce.

    I tend to splurge - if I can, I'm a rubbish saver, I splurge on my kids, clothes, shoes and nights out - hey, I could get run over by a truck tomorrow!

    Bills get paid as soon as the money is in. If there's money leftover...we tend to throw it in the savings account. We're fixin to buy a house soon. :)
