My dream vacation

As you all know, I’m not a huge traveler.

And usually when I do want to travel, it’s less about where I’m going than it is about who I’m seeing.

If we stick specifically with a dream vacation location, then I’d say it would be to go to Europe with Mr. FG. There are a lot of places I’m interested in seeing in Europe, and since I don’t know anyone in Europe, that trip would be all about the location, not the people.

But if it’s about seeing people….well, in a year or two, I’m really hoping to be able to plan a trip with three of my friends.

We used to all go to the same church here and we were in the same small group together, but then 2/4 of us moved away.

I’ve seen all of these friends here and there over the last few years, but we have never all been together at the same time in the same place.

Kristen and a friend.

So! When my one friend finishes nursing school and the other two have slightly older children, I really, really hope we can get away for a long weekend with just the four of us.

Europe may not happen for a really long time, but I do think the trip with my friends is doable in the not-so-distant future.

What’s your dream vacation?

    Australia, Hawaii, Alaska (Lindsey!). And I really want to see Mount Rushmore someday.

    I have a hard time traveling because I really don’t like being mobile and unmoored. Part of being an inense homebody. However, my mother-in-law went to England a few years ago with her son and sister, and they rented a house for a couple of weeks, from whence they took their excursions. I think probably that sort of “home base” stay with side trips would suit me best. As to where . . . I’ve always wanted to do a garden tour of England. Maybe some day.

      Want to go back to Scotland when the heather is on the highlands (mid Aug-Sept). Want to finally visit in person with friend who I met when we both worked as nurses in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia many years ago. Trip planned for May, 2020. Unfortunately we all know why that didn’t happen.

    I haven’t dreamed very big on vacations, but I would love to go to the Pictures Rocks National Lakeshore in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. There are so many wonderful places in Michigan I have yet to explore that I don’t spend much time thinking of places to visit outside of our beautiful state. Maybe someday when my kids are older and I’ve hit most of the places in my Michigan list.

What’s Kristen Prompted?

It’s me, writing from a list of daily prompts!

Although I always have a lot going on in my head, those thoughts can tend to stay cooped up in my brain.

But when I’m asked what I think about something, then I feel like I have permission to let some of my thoughts out.

So, this blog is a collection of daily essays, written because the list of daily prompts gave me permission to type. 😉

My main blog is The Frugal Girl, if you’d like to read more of my words!
