50 Shades Raven 31380 Report post Posted April 11, 2014 Some of the Caribbean islands are absolutely wonderful. My favorite is Antigua, then St. Kitts, Martinique and Turks & Caicos. Beautiful scenery, wonderful people, a true blessing when you want to just relax and be completely immersed in yourself, or with an amazing date ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ngate 120 Report post Posted May 26, 2014 What a wonderful thread designed to get me out of myself and have me set out on a dream journey to the land that fires my imagination...SPAIN. Nowhere on earth seems to hold the strange fascination and attraction for me that sunny Iberian Peninsula does. I want to fly to Paris take a super fast train to Madrid and spend endless days just investigating the city and all its Cultural and Art offerings a visit to the Prado Museum to soak in the works of Velazquez, Goya, Murillo, Ribera and others would be the ultimate in a visual experience for me and to follow that up with a visit south to the old capital of Toledo and El Greco this is a place I have dreamed about for a long time and an absolute must when the great day comes. I shall wait just a little longer, late summer if all goes well and nothing interferes in the meantime. Thank you for reminding me of a pleasant journey awaiting me. ngate 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sierra 6477 Report post Posted November 8, 2014 With Winter slowly setting in I'm already dreaming of warmer weather. I would love to go to Turks and Caicos or Bali to get away from the cold and snow. Australia and the Greek Islands(especially Santorini) are definitely on my bucket list :icon_smile: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Na****a***mers (RETIRED) Report post Posted November 14, 2014 Wulingyuan (Zhangjiajie) National Park, one of the most fantastic natural park in China, lies in the west of Hunan province. This marvelous natural phenomenon is more than 400 km² around and dominated by more than 3,000 narrow sandstone pillars and peaks, many over 200 m high. Between the peaks lie ravines and gorges with streams, pools and waterfalls, some 40 caves, and two large natural bridges. In addition to the striking beauty of the landscape, the region is also noted for the fact that it is home to a number of endangered plant and animal species. In 1992, the United Nations granted her the ''World Natural Heritage'' honor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The place looks so spectacular and surreal, now it is on my to-visit list. Thanks for your post. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Studio 110 by Sophia 150333 Report post Posted November 25, 2014 My first European visit next October! Going to Italy and Paris for sure and undecided where else. I am lucky to have some Italian friends that will take me in and show the real Italian culture. Of course will visit the tourist spots too, but I am excited to visit a small village and take part in the kitchen!! I cant believe I will finally see Paris, stand in front of a real Monet painting! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luckyme 41401 Report post Posted April 20, 2015 Thanks, kassi. I am really looking forward to visiting Jasper in the near future .. especially with my lovely cerb lady! :biggrin: Forgot to update that we did take the trip this past winter. The visit to the breath-taking Columbia Icefield, the scenic drive on the Icefield Parkway, the encounter with wild animals like the Bighorns sheep/Rams on the Parkway, and the skiing at Marmot Basin, are spectacular and profoundly memorable. Next on the to-visit list will be Banff and Lake Louise - with my lovely Lyla lady, of course. :icon_biggrin: 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
