OT: Plane ticket to anywhere
If someone offered you a plane ticket to anywhere in the world, where would you go? (Let's exclude Guatemala for the sake of us all not answering the same.
)My first choice would be Paris. (Preferably with a lot of shopping money!) We lived in England for a year and never made it to Paris and I still kick myself for it. Italy (just about anywhere in Italy, but probably Venice as a first choice) and an African safari would be close in the running.

Paris! I have never been there and have always wanted to go. When DS (he's 5) saw the movie Ratatouille, he decided he wanted to go to Paris too. He said, "Mommy, when I get big I'll take you to Paris and we can eat at Gusteau's."

I'd love to go back to China to be a tourist this time! But in the spirit of how you asked, I probably can't answer China - LOL.
If not China, I'd like to go to London. That's one of my favorite places to hang out! |

Can we get two tickets?
If I'm going alone, I'd love to see Spain. Any part, but Barcelona has always been a draw. If DH is coming along, Ireland to explore his heritage and maybe bike along the coast.

Can I mention more than one?
I really want to go to Tahiti, Moorea, Bora Bora. Im going to push my dh hard to go there on my 15th wedding anniversary(in 3 years). My second desire is to go to Spain. I have heard very nice things about Spain. I want to see Barcelona, Madrid, The Costa Del Sol, Seville, Toledo, Granada. You get the picture. If I were to do a driving trip Id like to see the Great Smoky Mountain area. Interesting post and interesting answers. Amy K, NJ

I'd have to go with Tuscany. I daydream of sitting on a balcony at sunset with a view of the fields/vineyards with a bottle of wine and just soaking it in in peace.
Paris is great as well - I've been twice...but I'm really craving quite relaxation at the moment ![]()
