    OMG I would totally be on a plane to Ireland, then hop a ferry to Scotland, then hit the Azores on the way back to the US! I have already priced this "Someday trip" out to see which order I should visit so that it's cheaper. smile 

    I am into family genealogy and those are where my ancestors are from. I would love to visit each one and walk the lands they walked, breath the air they breathed and say a prayer to each of them for having the courage to leave everything behind and emigrate to the US so their descendents could have a better life.

    Great question! Thank you for letting me dream a little.

    antarctica -- because i love cold weather and i love being alone so it would be a dream vacation for me! i think it would be exciting and just like an icy wonderland. plus, i think antarctica tends to get overlooked and downright forgotten. there is so much wildlife down there that you can experience in its natural habitat. it would be a refreshing break from the modern world in my opinion.

    I would choose to explore the American continent from Patagonia to Alaska, and riding on a motorcycle. I would avoid the jungle of Amazonas, but I would enjoy the tropical beaches of Costa Rica and Cancun.

    I would stop Stop at Los Angeles, and then continue to Sequoia National Park. then stop at San Francisco. From here, I would continue north to the state of Washington and visit the cities of Portland, Seattle and Spokane. Lastly, I would travel through Alaska and finish my trip in Anchorage.

    I would not go to farther north, because beyond Alaska it gets too cold.

    If I had the money, I would choose every continent!  I'd probably start with with Argentina and work my way north to Guatemala. Then I would head to the Caribbean on a boat and then to the Canary Islands and Europe making my way to Asia, Australia and New Zealand. Then to the South Pole and then Africa.  Perhaps I would need a year for each big area. Want to come with? smile

    North American..............It has such vastness of beauty, bounty, and desolence, to awaken my curiosity.


    Barren deserts to Great Lakes, Delta to Mountains..........flood plains to hill  country.....

    Small towns to metropolitan cities......

    Simple country life to the avenues of Broadway.

    I have ALL that I will ever  need , in my own vast back yard.


    The land that I call home, calls me to explore her.


    (ps.........I have enough money )

    There is a few places in Europe I would like to visit.  Starting with Scotland, Ireland, and England.  Then I would go to Holland and Germany.  Mainly becase that is were my family lineage is from, and I think Scotland (from the pictures I have seen) is so beautiful.

    Europe! Compared to other continents there are so many different cultures, histories, cuisines and sights to see within small distances. One day it will happen!
