10 on Tuesday: 10 Dream Vacations
1. My number one pick right now? Where the photo above was taken. Which probably will be looking a lot more like the pic below very soon - the farm in Minnesota. It’s been nearly a year since my last visit and I almost ache with desire to be back there again, but I’ve not been able to find a time that works with everyone’s schedule (mostly mine). And, as much as I miss it, I’m not horribly thriled with the thought of an early January visit again this year either. We experienced record breaking lows and there were many days with highs not over 0 degrees. After ten years in Colorado and my chronic pain I’m just not horribly cut out for that. Don’t get me wrong, Dad coddled me and always picked me up with a warm vehicle and I was spoiled, but it still wasn’t as pleasant as say my Memorial Day trip a couple years ago.
2. Now I know this one is going to shock you - Sweden! Oh how I long to go to Sweden. I think being there for Midsummer would be an experience of a lifetime (even though with each passing year I deal with crowds less well).
3. Since I was a girl obsessed with the Anne of Green Gables books and movies I’ve always wanted to go to Prince Edward Island. It would be especially fun as a girls vacation with my cousin and my sister. But I’ll take DH too if he wants to come along. I mean someone needs to carry our camera gear, right? ;-) Just kidding Drew!
4. While I’m talking Canada, I’ve also wanted to go to Victoria, British Columbia and Vancouver too.
5. I really haven’t traveled much so I’d also love to go to New England in the fall. It would be especially awesome to time it to go to Rhinebeck and meet some of you guys in person!
6. I’d also love to go to the Pacific Northwest - Seattle, Portland, San Fransisco…
7. An Alaskan cruise has been of interest to me for a while now too.
8. Australia and New Zealand would be pretty high on my list.
9. Then there is of course Italy, Spain and France which would be culinary delights to visit.
10. I think I’d also really enjoy the Carribean.
In reality I think I’d enjoy going nearly anywhere as long as it were with Drew or my sister and involved taking my camera along.
