Raise Your Hand~!
How many of you take Vacations regularly?
Like around the world, area, or in your brain when you are day dreaming.
Whats a cool place you have been to and wish to share with others?
Post some pictures too while your at it.
I'm a fan of places other than California, even Mexico. East coast is cool, people are definitely not as cheap and superficial

Never been on vacation  Barely even left NJ.. we had a house in the country part of New York, but due to high taxes and such we've had to rent it out to people. I can post a little bit of pictures when I get home from school

I'm always day dreaming or deep in thought about something, does that count?

Last time I went on vacation was in 1988. Had a great time too.
I don't day dream about vacations' spots.

Yep, sure does.
I know for me sometimes it takes someone asking me for me to realize I haven't had a vacation in a while.
Long over due, last time I drove up the coast of California to this little dutch town called Solvang. Best pancakes I have ever had in my life (ummm blueberry, banana, butter pecan). The trip burnt a deep whole in my wallet and took advantage of all my days off from work but it was worth it.

I haven't been on vacation since my cousin's wedding in 2005 (Philadelphia) in a few weeks though, myself, my girlfriend, my sister, and her friend are going to take a roadtrip down to Nashville for my uncle's wedding reception (he got married a few months ago) Roadtrip, getting a hotel with my girl, and drinking with my big sister (who is awesome) this is a win all around for me.
Too bad it's in the country music capital of the world <_<

I used to travel often, but having to be an adult sort of put an end to that. We are headed to North Carolina in a few weeks for a a quick trip, and then to virginia in August for a camping trip. Not quite like trips to South America, but fun none-the-less.

My wife and I went to sydney australia last year, and it was killer. So much to do in the city and out, nice weather, and good looking women. I actually still miss the place and I was only there for 3 weeks - the 21 hour travel there though was brutal.

*raises hand*
Im afraid the job Im in allows me to have what some people may consider to be, wayyyyy too much time off. Consequently me and my little family (wife and 2 daughters) go on holiday fairly regularly.
Last year we went to Perth in Western Aus for a month in April, then France for a week and Majorca for 10 days, plus plenty of weekend breaks in our tin-tent.
This year, so far we have been to Antwerp in Belgium for a long weekend, St Lucia in the Carribean for 10 days and weve just come back from Centre Parcs in the Lake District.
Not sure what she has planned for the rest of the year........we may be following the Tour de France through the Alps for a few days in July.

lol and does the wife know what you think about the good looking women? 
We're off on the norfolk broads again this year in august with a bigger boat. we complained about the state of the floater we had last year (yes floater, not what it was called but the standard of hygiene was something similair, ewwww)
