Are you traveling anywhere soon?

[dulcemariamar]

I am so jealous because I know a lot of people who are traveling next month. Anybody else have winter holiday plans?

[mrsukyankee]

Nope. My life is too busy with going to school and I'm too poor (because of school) to travel. I'm jealous of my friends travelling too.

[oneslybookworm]

Nothing planned. DH and I keep talking about taking a cruise, but it's not booked yet. We do have a wedding in Seattle we're going to in May though, so that will be fun!

[Wanderista]

I wish I were, it's not impossible but I don't know. I was thinking of going somewhere on a short day trip for Presidents' Day but the weather around here has been a bit unpredictable lately.

[frlcb]

We have Nashville this weekend (weather permitting), San Diego and Florida in March, and then we get into summer travel plans - Dublin and the UK for two weeks, Jackson Hole for two weeks, and probably 2 weeks in Florida.

[irish]

frlcb how long will you be in Dublin? And when?

No plans at the moment but hoping to get away somewhere before I go back to work in early May. Just in country but at least it will be away. Didn't go anywhere last year.

I probably should have said Ireland, we are going for 5 days but only doing Dublin the last day or two!

I have two trips to Dubai planned in March and April for two new Zumba certifications!! Excited for those.

Also we're going to Abu Dhabi in May to see Justin Timberlake! Whoop!!

No plans otherwise. We need to figure out this summer since it's going to be here soon!!

[Cheesecake]

Nothing planned. I wish I'd hear about some family plans soon, so we can decide and book our trips.

Cheesecake - if you are in the US, let me know! We were talking about a trip to Colorado this summer...maybe we could meet up?!

[dorothyinAus]

I'm having a long weekend in Melbourne this weekend, and probably another next month. Other than that, we're not planning anything until next January when we're headed to Tampa for a Southern Caribbean cruise.

[loira]

My sister is coming to visit in March and we'll be taking the train over to Paris for a couple of days. I'm trying to convince H we need one more proper trip just the 2 of us before the baby, so we might go to Croatia in April or May.

[elenetxu]

I wish! My only hotel stays will be weekend-long classes. D'oh!

However, I DID just buy my tickets home for this summer. We used miles, for the first time in our lives! I'm so happy we're not going to be horribly poor this summer!

[anna7602]

- Going to Charleston, SC next month for a "babymoon" with DH (DD is staying with my ILs).

- Trying to get to Miami in March while my parents are there for the winter (then they start traveling all over the place in the spring) and maybe tacking a quick Cuba trip onto that.

I thought I was okay with having cancelled my Cuba plans for this winter, but then I talked to my sister today and she was so gushy and excited about the idea of seeing me pregnant and blah blah blah and now I feel like I should at least consider it. (Last documented case of cholera was in early December. It was the cholera that made me think going with DD was a bad idea back when I pulled the plug on the winter trip. Feel free to weigh in.)

- Going back to Paris in April.

- Feeling like I should get in one more fun place before it's too late to fly in pregnancy. I've thrown around the idea of Iceland, but would have to enlist the ILs to watch DD. We can't pull her out of school and by the time school ends, I can't fly anymore.

Basically, my brain is having this crazy "I need to do all the traveling I can before I become a miserable, sleep-deprived person again" moment.

[elenetxu]

Goodness gracious, I missed something. Enhorabuena!!!

[allibally]

We were suppose to go away this weekend out to the suburbs. It was a voucher for our anniversary that we have yet to use. I'm thinking we might be canceling because of some expenses that just came up.

Thank you! Wanting to get in another visit to Spain was previously on my list, but my Madrid cousins already said they'd try to come visit me in the fall to get snuggles in with the bebe.

[pittpurple]

loira - try and do something if you can, we went to Italy for a week when I was about 24 weeks or so and it was delightful, particularly now that all that relaxing seems so far away...

I'm just starting to look at options for a weekend away with a girlfriend. No baby, no husband just the 2 of us and some cocktails! Thinking maybe Malta? Need to keep it super affordable since we're taking this trip to China and HK in June. Think that plus our trip to California for a family wedding in October will be our only trips this year, I swear flying to the states used to be cheaper.

[doctoranda]

We're going to Paris in 3 weeks. We've been but never together, so we're excited! After that we have Sicily and California on our list (probably both during summer break). I am also going to Berlin at some point with my mom. Probably in May.

[Deleted]

@doctaranda Ships passing in the night... I'll be there for a few days right before you.

Paris in two weeks to hang out with my sister. She lives in South America but travels a lot for work so taking DS2 with me to see her. Almost free trip as she really wanted me to come so she bought my flight and we are crashing in her hotel room.

Resort in Portugal in May. Possibly some weekend trips between now and then if DH has to travel for work and we can tag along with flights on points.

Maybe Monaco in April (DH there for work). Still not sure on that one. Will I want to be there parenting mostly solo with two young kids? DH says it is crazy expensive but I won't be going anywhere fancy with the kids in tow. How expensive could Subway sandwiches and snacks from the grocery store be?

You already know I love Paris, but I love Berlin, too! It's on my list of approved places to move to in the world (except DH's awesome English-speaking skills aren't as in demand there).

[GilliC]

Office ski trip in central Norway this weekend.

Then headed up to Kiruna, Sweden to stay at the IceHotel in early March (Don't tell my SO, as it's a surprise).

[doctoranda]

I forgot to mention that I'll be in Edinburgh in June for a conference. Trying to go with DH and our best friend and make it a business/leisure trip combined.

[americaninoz]

I'm off to Mexico for my brothers wedding 5 weeks from today
Hoping to schedule some sort of long weekend baby moon trip for dh and I too, April/May

[travelingturtle]

We're going to visit some mountains in Germany next week, then I'm going to Berlin in March, London in April, and possibly back to Berlin in May (if my parent's visit we'll go somewhere and Berlin's at the top of my list at the moment, but that could change), then a road trip to Slovenia and Croatia at the end of May/beginning of June, and then if my inlaws visit (which is really up in the air) we'll probably go to Brussels and/or Paris because they really want to go to those two places. I want to do a short weekend trip to the mosel region of Germany around Easter, but I'm not sure if that's going to happen.
