A friend of mine traveled to Egypt a couple years ago and someone asked her boyfriend if he'd be willing to trade her in for a camel, and I'm not even kidding!!!

yeah, he turned it down. Not only did he not want to part with her, but how was he supposed to bring a camel back to Canada?!

I'm going to NYC in August. I'm going to visit a friend who lives there and I'm also going to meet up with friends I know from the internet. They are no strangers to me though, I've met them before when I worked in the USA, we had a get-together in Las Vegas. It was great fun!

Looks like our trip to Dublin will be postponed and we're going to Paris instead. Oh well, there are worst things in life, I suppose ;D ;D ;D

Lucky! I'd love to visit Paris...but also Dublin! I've never been there. Even if it's pretty near I went to France only once and I visited Monaco and Nice, I was on a school trip and so I had a lot of fun and I liked them.

I've got a feeling this won't be my last trip to France because there is so much to see in that country! I'd love to see Nice, Toulouse, Aix-en-Provence.....

One of my cousin stayed for 6 months in Provence, I don't remember exactly where, and she tells me it's a wonderful place. I should had gone there on a school trip my last year of school, but at the end teachers decided to bring us to Wien and Salisbourg...it was a good decision too! But I'd really like to see Provence!

I would love to go back to Scotland. Lately I've really been wanting to go back. It's been about 2 years since I went for a school trip. But I guess, in all honesty, I just want to go SOMEWHERE because I never do.

Yeah, I know the feeling, I get very restless sometimes... When I get too restless, I plan a weekend away in a town or city nearby, we don't always realize how much there is to discover close to home
