Vacation Destinations Numbers 1-5

And now to conclude my list of vacation destinations. If you missed numbers 6-10, find my August 4th post and catch up!

5. Bermuda

People keep telling me I should go, so I'll pop it on this list. Hey, I'm always open to suggestions. Especially ones that involve packing only a swimsuit.

4. New Orleans, Louisiana

I heart Harry Connick Jr. and Harry Connick Jr. hearts New Orleans. So...that's it.

3. Vermont

I have a place here. I eventually want to live here, but for now, I'll take weekending in this beautiful state with the quiet mountains. That's the view from my great room windows. Sick, right?



2. Bon Temps, Louisiana

Okay, okay, I know it's not a real place, but damn! I want to go there soooo bad. Click HERE to see a fun website about the True Blood fictional town.

1. Alaska

I went on a cruise here in 2000. Best vacation EVER! I'd love to go back and do a more land-focused tour. Get up close and personal with some Alaskan wildlife. Sometimes I reread parts of my book ALASKA HEART to pretend I'm there. Seriously, if you haven't been, go. You won't regret a single minute of it.

So I guess I'd better start saving for some of these excursions so I can cross them off my list. I do so love crossing things off lists.

Do you have any trips planned? Where to?

Toodles,

No trips planned. My only "vacation" this summer was to visit my mom and grandma, but it wasn't exactly on par with your list of exotic locations. I did live in Vermont for a couple of falls back in my youthful single days. Stowe to be specific. Loved all those quaint little towns with their white churches and winding country roads!

I admit to visiting New Orleans twice, Vermont often and planning a trip to Alaska. I love to travel and will go anywhere the road leads.

I have been to New Orleans. It was pre-Katrina. It was amazing. OMG. I've always wanted to live in Vermont, ever since Newhart. (I'm not sure how many of you are old enough to know what I'm talking about) As far as Bon Temps, I agree!!! How cool would that be? You could sort of kill two birds with one stone by going to New Orleans, because I understand they film a lot there. Thanks for the interesting post!
