    Aw its all pie in the sky at the moment. I just know I don't want to stay in Ireland on my own when my baby goes to College so I am gonna head off and explore the world, probably starting in Japan.

    I work as a freelance writer so can work anywhere in the world but will probably teach English to supplement my income.

    Also looking at housesitting in a few places to reduce the costs of moving about.

    Vegas in less than two months to get hitched and Colorado to visit husbands family and relax. I'm gonna get so high in the mountains! :pac:

    Then hopefully Oktoberfest in September if we can get reasonable accommodation.

    Probably a trip to London at some point too.

    I have the opportunity to spend the day in Boston but what is there to do other than eat a lobster roll?

    Going to trek across some ancient mountains man. Got my sheepskin authentic rustic tent in argos man. I'm going to find myself. Smoke the ganga, grow dreadlocks, wear beaver. Man epic man. I'm so cultured and one with nature. The indigenous people man. They really get me. We're brothers man.

    Portugal somewhere in July for the family holiday, and Silverstone in the UK for the MotoGp in September with the lads.

    I would love to fit one of these in this year but don't think it's going to happen.

    European city break in Spring, the US in Autumn. Hopefully I'll get a stop on the East and West coast.

    Holiday? Not in my range of activities! trying to remember the last time I spent even a night away... does hospital count? Seriously. not well enough to be away and have no desire to travel. and no money! I have days out combining shopping with sightseeing and that is enough and travel the world here online without the hassle or expense. I am happy!

    No big holiday this year but will probably go glamping in the summer for a few days somewhere in Ireland. I would rather camp than glamp but It wouldn't be suitable for my 6 month old.

    My 3 and a half year old is obsessed with camping but we had a sun holiday in march last year and when it came to the summer I was due the baby so we didn't go anywhere but OH had to set up a tent in the back garden for her :)

    I dont know alot about it but next year we are thinking about doing a canal trip around England.

    No plans. There's talk of a mate's birthday in the Caribbean in November, so I might save my time off and money for that. I'm starting to feel the need for heat but the only place to get some this time of year is the Canaries and I'm not a mad fan of there. Thinking of a long weekend in Amsterdam at some point, and maybe a few days travelling around Ireland, do some camping.

    Costa del Sol in April. I've never actually been to Spain and it was a gift from Mr. Tration, so I'm delighted :)

    One sister is going to Vietnam, another two are going to Spain and the folks are going to Italy, Spain and maybe France again.

    Girly holiday in May in Portugal before having a baby in July.
    A good few weekends visiting friends, or nights in fancy hotels, around Ireland between now and then, and some nice family weekends in Connemara after the babba comes.
    Might try to convince the hubby to bring me to Spain before the baby too.

    Nicer there in autumn so they say. Just watch reruns of Murder, She Wrote and it will be like you are there. :)
