Alex & I have been talking about vacations lately and it got me thinking about places I would like to see if I: A) had unlimited funds & B) had unlimited vacation time, both of which I do not have. Most of the places I want to go are in the good old U.S of A so I’ll probably get to see some of those places but I doubt I’ll ever go overseas, the thought of flying over the ocean freaks me right out!
Ten Places I Would Like To Visit
1. Texas – I heard everything is bigger there…
2. San Francisco – Home of the Federation… (any trekkies in the house?)
3. Iceland – It seems like a place a lot of people don’t go, but they have volcanos, one of the highest literacy rates in the world and quite a few companies that produce excellent yarn.
4. London – I want to meet the Queen. I know its not possible, but let a girl dream okay?! AND if I can’t meet the Queen then I at least want to annoy the guards outside the palace.
5. Vulcan, Alberta & Riverside, Iowa (the future birth place of Captain James T. Kirk, seriously!) – Why not?
6. Paris – I have no reason for wanting to go to Paris, I just do.
7. Japan - Alex’s dream trip is to go to Japan, I think if I went I would have to practice serious restraint in order not to buy everything in sight! Everything is cuter in Japan right?
8. The International Space Station – In my lifetime, if its ever possible to pay to go into space to tour the space station (and not have to mortgage your house or win the lottery to afford it) I want to be first in line!
9. Hawaii – Some of my family just went there and it looked faboo! Also, apparently its the Spam capital of the world… they love Spam in Hawaii. Who knew…
10. Holland – Mostly because years ago my grandfather brought my mom a pair of wooden clogs back from a trip he took to Holland, she kept them for years but recently my brothers dog chewed them up to the point where they couldn’t be fixed and she was sooooo sad about it. If I had the opportunity I would to go to Holland and get her another pair and probably a pair for myself too.
