Hi all,
Well we are back from our Nov/Dec Disney adventure. I haven't even had a chance to pop back in here yet to say hi - so, hi
Thanks to those that followed along in my blog. I still have some pics to add but I really enjoyed writing it, and now I have my own blog/travel diary to look back on as well as the memories and the photos.
We got back on the 20th of December, and I must say that I wasn't too sure about returning so close to Christmas, but now I think that it was a great idea, and I think future holidays may follow the same pattern. It was great because I didn't have any of the pre Christmas stress because we were away, so when we got back all I had to do was pick up a few lay-by's (which Big W cancelled, but that is another thread LOL) and wrap pressies and it was Christmas already. Also, when I add the 3.5 weeks we were away to the almost 2 weeks work was closed for, it adds up to a really good, long break
Anyway, my question is for the travellers out there (and I am sure there are a few of you). So, we have done Disneyland twice in 13 months, so at least for the moment it is out of our system. But I still feel the need to plan a trip - I really work better through the year when I have a great holiday to save towards and look forward to.
This time I am thinking of something completely opposite of the Disneyland experience and am leaning towards a tropical paradise. At the moment I am seriously contemplating Bora Bora - has anyone ever been there? It looks spectacular and DD1 busted me looking at photos online and is now also in love with the place. But Bora Bora is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ and when we go overseas we really like to stay for at least 2 weeks (less than that doesn't seem like a holiday at all). I know that there are some places that are affordably priced there, so if I decided that I really, truly wanted to go we could probably do it.
Does anyone have any other suggestions as to places to go next? I definately don't want to go to Bali, and probably not Fiji either. So my list at the moment consists of Bora Bora (or maybe another Tahitian island), Hawaii and maybe even Vanuatu. Anyone want to help a girl decide
