I laughed and said 'you're so trashed" which was the case. I guess beer goggles work both ways.

Sorry thought I clicked add last time. I did majority of my research and planned my travel itinerary around various travels blogs sites and recommendations from natives and foreigners. I went for 10 days and visited Tokyo, Kamakura, Nara, Kyoto, Osaka, Miyajima and Hiroshima. I most enjoyed Tokyo and least enjoyed Osaka (it was raining and didnâ€t have much time to sight see)Â
I was able to get round trip tickets for cheap by looking on Kayak and signing up for email alerts when price drops on a certain trace date I selected. Flight was easy, up to Canada and over to Japan. 13 hours total. Will go again someday.
What're you doing here?

If you do the Mexico all-inclusive, I recommend this place: http://www.occidentalgrandxcaret.com/ My wife and I did our 5 year anniversary here and we both agreed that it was better than our honeymoon in Maui.

We went down to the pool yesterday and the wife asked me "Why do we ever travel anywhere?".
For me: 1. Places with notable scenery. 2. Places with interesting history. 3. Family/close friends. I used to think of going to places where we could relax and enjoy, but frankly we can do that easily here without the pain and expense of travel, so it has dropped of my list. Since we moved, my kids are visiting far more often than they did when we were 100 miles away, it's a bit unexpected, but good.

Yeah I donâ€t get the go somewhere and lay around vacation. As you note I can do that at home. Itâ€s why I donâ€t really get the beach vacation. I could pile some sand next to the pool. Wildlife, scenery, history, etc. need to be in play. Something I canâ€t see or do at home.

The wife likes the beach, so we go, and I enjoy good seafood. I do a lot of reading and I can do it there as well as here.
Hilton Head is fine with me in the off season. We usually go for 9-10 days in January before baseball. Baseball is my incentive to stay in shape, get in shape. It's in Sarasota this year, already sold out. |
