Best vacation you ever had?

Probably my best vacation was to Italy when I was still in high school. It was my first time in Europe, I was with my family (who I love to travel with), and we saw a lot while we were there.

Another memoriable trip was going to Maui with friends in college. We'd all gotten our PADI certifications so we did a lot of scuba diving.

India was also pretty cool, but I was traveling with people who would waste half the day discussing how we should spend the day, and staying with people who tried to discourage us from seeing anything outside of New Delhi. So I didn't get much out of it. I was also freezing the whole time and got food poisoning (and the Taj Mahal was an absolute nightmare!). But I still would like to go back someday.

I lived in Augsburg, Germany for a while and I travled all over Europe however, my most memorable one was a four day bike ride from Augsburg to Frankfurt where my big Brother was stationed.
It was four days of biking and camping and it was wonderful. Of corse, I was in shape back then.

Maldives. Been a couple of times. Just awesome, above and below water.

I'm very lucky to have been to many places in the Caribbean for scuba dive trips (Bonaire, Dominica, St John, St Thomas, Dominican Republic, Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Honduras, Belize, Mexico, Florida Keys, plus the ones I'm forgetting) and in the south pacific: Guam, Yap and Palau. Fave vacation though... cruising on a Carnival ship with a big group of family and friends while hoping from one to another of the Caribbean islands.

I've never been many places. Only went one place outside the US and that was when I was a baby. The only vacation I do remember that I really liked was when I went to Pensacola, Fl as a kid. I know there're probably better places out there, but it's one of my earlier childhood memories.

my top 3:

-First time I went to NYC.. I was in college, it was actually the gift I gave myself for finishing my career. I saved money for a whole year, I didnt even went to the party, all I wanted was my trip.. Before 9-11 I was like ´I wanna go there I wanna go there´, of course my fam/parents thought I was crazy cause we have no family/friends there, BUT, once 9-11 happened, my biggest dream was to go there. A few months before that I met this pretty cool friend of mine, he lives in Brooklyn and used to be a cop, having a HUGE crush on cops and their uniforms, he was another reason for me to go there LOL.. He was just a penpal (yeah I have penpals.. still have a few), in 2002 he came to LA to spend sometime with a buddy/colleague fireman he met in NY with 9-11. So he told me he was coming to LA, and that he wanted to drive to SD to meet me... I started saving money for my NYC vacations the next day I met him.. and yep, I was landing in JFK almost a year after that. I felt tears on my eyes, I was just sooo excited to be there :happy:

-My Cancun trip back in 2008, I have a cousin that lives there, she works in a travel agency, so she took me to all the cool places for free!!.. including Chichen Itza, Captain Hook ship (you know what im talking about if u have been there), swimming with dolphins, Xcaret, and nightclubs including Coco Bongo. I had a blast!!

-My trip to Germany, went to Koblenz to visit a friend (he was originally from there), was my first time in Europe, and even tho I went to another countries, the time I spent in Germany was a blast, cause I was hanging out with him and he knew where to take me. Beautiful place!

I've traveled the world and each and every place has been "the best" in one way or another. I am taking a trip back to Australia, Thailand, Singapore and VietNam later this year. Been to all before except vietnam, looking forward to that.

A break in Milton Keynes would change your perspective.
