Vacation!

I'm taking a vacation for the next few weeks---exciting, but also tiring, at least ahead of time. I'm right at that point where I wonder why we were going in the first place. There's pet care to figure out, stuff to pack, weather to research... We're flying this time, so that's always extra complicated.

But I'm looking forward to a break! Good for the soul. We're not going anywhere tropical like the picture (I wish), but to London, which will be cool.

Earlier this week, someone asked me in an interview what places I still want to visit. I realized most of my wish list location have to do with food: Italy, Greece, Ireland... I also want to see more of the U.S., especially our parks so I can hug a few trees.

How about you? Any wish list destinations?

  1. I'd love to go back to the U.K. My wife and I started dating in Ediburgh. (She's American, btw.) Good memories.

  2. Fleur, I wish you a wonderful and memorable holiday. I wonder if the land of Harry Potter will be an inspiration for a new plot or story idea. As for my own wish-list destinations, I'd like to see my own country before I venture outside.

  4. Loren: Endinburgh is actually on my list too; a good friend is from there.

    Prashant: you echo my sentiments about home: there's so much I haven't seen of the U.S. yet. And I prefer a car trip over a plane one any day...

    Steve: thank you! I hope to make it to your end of the globe someday.

  5. Go for it, Fleur! Let the potential list of options roll out on your mind, and take you places. Going on a vacation is a precious leeway from the hustle and bustle of our daily lives, so we should allow it to transport us further and beyond. Thanks for sharing that! Bon voyage!
