I went to Thailand for a few days. Lots of Buddhas, clubs, alcohol, and fun on the beach :)

I wanted to go away this year, but my boyfriends passport has expired!! :mad: so hes taking me to Wales instead (which for me isnt that exciting, especially in November!!)

He thinks we're going to climb Mount Snowdon (laughs) :D

I went to Barbados last year though :) which was amazing, everyone HAS to go there!

[amanda]

But, if everyone goes there, then it wouldn't be Barbados, now would it?

Vacation, vacation, lemme see...fortunately, I've seemed to have melded my life into one long, permanent one, so it's hard to distinguish just one particular place...

Marlbourgh Sounds, New Zealand. A lovely spot that I will not name. But it is always Sunday there. And it is my heaven.

Another heaven: somewhere warm. Underwater.

[chuckie egg]

You are right! ok... you can only go there a few at a time, then we wont spoil the tranquility!!

Okay Doaky??

I went to Jamaica last May, it was Grand! We smoked pot with this huge Jamaican named Jimmy (http://www.zenmedia.gogman.net/Pics/jamaica/KatJimmy.JPG) I swam with some dolphins and climbed up the waterfalls. In doing my research, I found that it was the same price to go to Jamaica as it was to go to Hawaii as far as airfare and accommodations, but in Jamaica, all the food and drinks are included!!!!!

I'm leaving in soon for Amsterdam, Paris and then London. I've been to London before and LOVED IT!. I can't wait for Amsterdam and Paris. I just love being in a new place and experiencing a different culture, it's the 9-10 hour flights to get there that suck.

If you're going to London you must make sure you go on the Millenium Eye (wheel)

Tis quite scary at first if your not a fan of heights, but it is well worth the trauma when you reach the top!- very impressive on a nice day

If you like art the Tate Modern is a must see also :)

We did the Eye in 2000. It was fun for a single trip.
We didn't get a chance to do the Tate. We completely od on the British Museum and the National Gallery. By the end of the day every painting started looking the same, filly cuffs and silk pants.
We will be in London for 6 days this time because we loved it so much last time!
I wish Houston had such great public transportation like the Tube!
Two more weeks! I can't wait!!!

[dinzdale]

I'm going back to London for a visit on 21st Nov.
If you're on the plane Red, make a loud noise !!!

[red]

Sorry Dinzdale, we aren't leaving until the 22nd and then we're off the A'dam.
WooHOO!

[dinzdale]

Hamster Jam is fun, hope it hasnt changed too much, and that you have a great wheeze.

When you get to Blighty, and you see someone on the tube, and they look quite "dinz-like", it's probably me. Buy me a drink.

i've been jamming in the US all year: New York, Philly, Princeton, K.C., Chicago and i will be in Minneapolis in two weeks. i'm hoping for Alps in January for skiing. otherwise it's to the Rockies (which has the best powder in the world).

anyone ever been to Wyoming?

[saskuoch]

I've seen Wyoming...standing on top of a mountain in Utah.

[Deviate]

it's shockingly beautiful. i went there for the first time to teach at an art and theatre of the oppressed project. it was so spectacular, for the first time i understood why people would want to leave the city.

[Deviate]

yes! i rule.....

[surflugen]

One last week of work before I go on my 10 day vacation. Woo Hoo!!!
Ah, Mexico. It sounds so simple I just don't know. (don't even know the words to that song) Any ways, I hope that were we are staying didn't get rocked to bad from that huricane a few weeks back. Maybe I will be inspired to do another painting for you all to see.

[Deviate]

well, i was shooting for the Alps in January, but it looks like i'll be in the Rockies with my best buds. oh well. i went for company ahead of scenery.

-st.

[catbelly]

Well, the rockies certainly don't suck for scenery! I took a train trip through last winter, and it was gorgeous. Didn't have time to go to the hot springs, though.

[saskuoch]

Deviate- where in the Rockies are you going? I assume this is a skiing vacation?

[red]

Yeah. I can't think about that now. I go vacation in 5 days. WHOPPEE!!

yeah, skiing. i'm a fanatic. two new pairs never hit snow. i'm psyched.

and, no, Rockies don't suck, they're just not the Alps.

thinking about hitting Winterpark 'cause i dig the train. but not sure yet....

-st.

[saskuoch]

That sounds like fun (for you)!

I used to ski when I was little bitty. My family lived in Denver. They still go to Utah every spring, but I skip it. I took a few years off and never really got back in the hang of it. I'm just not sure that people who will willingly throw themselves down the side of a mountain with big akward things on their feet are sane :)

[Deviate]

ah, must be why i like it - what with the insanity and all.

-st.

[Deviate]

my mom kept trying to convince me to take a year off of school, move to the foot of the slopes, live in my car, teach skiing and be a ski bum.

still wondering why i didn't...

[surflugen]

Two more work days to go- then its off to get toobed out of my mind.
