I would be with my mom.
It isn’t the money that stops me.
The places of my friends and loved one. I have just returned from my trip out of town to a relative’s home. It was a marvellous experience. If traveling didn’t cost anything, I could imagine myself going there again.
We just came home from a week away and school for my daughter starts on Tuesday, so I am glad to be at home right now and wouldn’t want to be anywhere else, at this moment.
Paris France. See the Eiffel Tower.
Shop Avenue des Champs-Élysées.
The Arts. Opera Garnier. ...
Visit the Louvre.
Oh and the French cuisine. Ooh la la :)
Pacific Northwest. With my dog.
Europe, traveling around for free . . .
I’m with @janbb in that it’s NOT the money that keeps me from traveling. For me…I just don’t ENJOY traveling!!! My idea of traveling is getting on my computer & researching an area that I’ve never visited & enjoy the beautiful pics &/or videos!!!
My last boss before retiring had a family compound on Sanibel Island FL that he visited every year. He called me one day after I retired & asked what I was doing. I told him that I was sitting on the beach in Sanibel watching the waves crashing to the shore. He could hear the waves in the background. What I didn’t tell him was that I was sitting in my den watching a beach cam & I had a crashing waves .mp3 playing in the background. Looking at my computer screen wasn’t much different than looking out my hotel window & I was enjoying watching the kids romping on the beach!!! Many of the people walking by knew the cam was there, so they would stop for a second & then smile & wave into the camera. I always waved back & greeted them with a “Hey Bob & Carol, how are the kids“I have a GREAT imagination & I was enjoying my beach trip even MORE than IF I was really there as I’ve NEVER enjoyed the sand in my swimsuit!!!
When I find a good mountain place to visit, I have a babbling brook .mp3. That’s when I sit by the stream & listen to the relaxing sounds of the water!!! I also have several waterfall.mp3’s in different strengths, so no matter the fall I decide to visit, I have the sound effects to go with it!!!
Walking in beach sand isn’t very easy when only half your body works. Hiking in the mountains also presents challenges that’s MORE than I feel like conquering most days. So, I now lazy vacay whenever the mood strikes me!!!
@LadyMarissa You paint such a beautiful picture. You are an artist! :) God how did you do this again?
Italy. It’s the top of my bucket list. Also New Zealand’s Marlborough Sound is a close second, finally Norway would round out the top 3.

Edible flowers only then? ~
I would be with my mom. Especially now that her power is out and her town is 15 miles from a major out of control wild fire.
OMG! @RedDeerGuy1 I hope she has an escape plan in place. Please call her.
@RayaHope She said that she’s fine. She has money and baloney sandwiches and power bar chocolate bars, and she has a bug out bag and all the insurance info in the second bag.
Update Parks Canada said that the town is not in any danger at this time, and lots of smoke. Power is coming back in phases and should be restored in a day or two.
I am relaying to her the alerts from Parks Canada. I guided her to a charging station and her phone is 100% now.
@RayaHope Thanks for your concern. (((HUGS))).
Smoke from the fires is in my city too. Air quality warning. I have food. I made my self a bacon sandwich and was good.
@RedDeerGuy1 I’ll be praying for you AND your mom! (HUGS) back xoxo
@smudges I’m up for Greece too! Santorini is on the bucket list as well. Let’s have @LadyMarissa make the travel arrangements for us. We don’t need anything too fancy, but swimming pools are always a plus.
Greece on the beach… I wonder how funny rebbel can get with a
couple of beers. I’m buying.
“Greece on the beach.” Like an oil spill?
Greenland – looking for ice (glaciers). Iceland – looking for green (scenery). And maybe looking for aurora borealis there too.
