The Holiday Thread

Post by StephenKingman »

Anyone planning any nice holidays or short trips away, thought it would be nice to have a thread to post when people are heading away.

Im off to Florida in March to check out the theme parks and enjoy some much-needed sunshine. :D

Lucky you!

I might be going somewhere in February or March but I don't make plans much earlier so it all depends where the tickets will be cheaper. And if nothing will ruin my plans.

I would love a vacation!! But between work and school I think it might be a while. I know my husband and I are longing to go camping seeing how we haven't been in a couple of years.

Well, I was planning a trip to the beach sometime this summer, but I don't know if it's going to work out or not. :cry:

We are heading into winter but since I live in a subtropical climate close to long coastal beaches, cool mountain rainforests and vast outback deserts I can take an adventure holiday any time without travelling too far from home.

Well, first saying that the end of my school holidays end soon.

I'm going for a month around June/August to China. I haven't been there since 2008, and I am keen to see my relatives.
:D Enjoy your day~

^ Yeah, but my second pressie is an IKEA locker, wonder how that will go down ha. Ever been up to the big IKEA, Fran? I was up there last month, couldnt get over the size, really could spend all day there and their cafe is the best-kept secret in Ireland-restaurant quality grub for half nothing :P
