Well, i am gone from the house for work 50 hours per week, then i have the house chores to do, and frankly i do get tired. I do need loads of sleep when i have gone so long without holidays. These 2 weeks, mostly will be spent at home, doing not much but enjoying the beach, and the garden. A short trip to Qld, gold coast for a few days, and thats about it. Just some R&R. Why Manchester, how did you pull that one out of the hat. ::)
I would love to see more of England, especially one part hehe.
I have won an overseas trip this year, luxury problem, don't know where to go. Maybe Bali again, maybe China, NZ, Tahiti or Hawaii.. don't know, but that won't be until Sept. Going to Victoria at the end of April for a week to see the kids. Thats about it. Perhaps you could help me in where to go out of my choices.
Oh Tex.. and it will NEVER be Hobart. That strikes a very cold nerve inside me.. Tasmania as a whole, would have loved to have seen it, but it has a bitter twist now, so i don't think i will ever go there.

Answers to cissies questions ;D
1)Sorry about Hobart,was only an answer to simpsons question a few posts ago.
2) Manchester?. Visiting times to see Uncle Billy are 3-5pm daily. The nurse will insist that you leave promptly. :-[
Choice of holiday.
1)Bali-- Risk of another bomb at hotels
2)CHINA--very cultural provided you are in a group and follow guidelines.Big brother is always watching you.
3)NZ--Lovely scenery,old world charm. You may have trouble counting sheep ::) NightWatchman has recently moved from here and might shed more light on NZ.
4)Tahiti--- Heavily populated,poluted city,poor beaches and rain forest interior.Other "Society Islands" offer much better choices
5) Hawaii--- "My cup of pineapple juice". Great weather,tourist orientated. This would be my choice.
And who says I dont care ;D
cheers
cissie:
Thanks Tex... hehe... we seem to have different views on places.
Bali.. well i have been there after a bomb, same as Paris after a bomb, but hey one could go off in our own backyard, look at London or anywhere for that instance. Can't go worrying about the might happens. Its still a lovely place to go, but they don't have good beaches unless you travel to the smaller ones.
China.. my brother goes there every 6 weeks on buying trips, my parents used to go there often and mum was there a few months ago with my neice on their own, always have a ball, she is 80 and never goes in a group, but yes, they are always being watched.
NZ.. mmm.. could maybe have to drive a bit to see what i want, and i don't really want to have to go doing that exploring stuff more like little day trips. Perhaps because i am tired now, don't like to think of being an explorer then, but i do love to do that, i just come home exhausted from those kind of holidays, as i tend to walk and walk for about 18 hours then.
Tahiti... i don't know what pics you have seen but this one doesn't show over population, or bad beaches etc. Similar to Phuket, you really have to go to the smaller islands to see the pristine beaches etc, but this looks ideal to me.
Hawaii... now thats what i call over populated, however i have a cousin who will not go to any place but there. She works for a travel industry and that is always her place of choice.
mmmm... Thanks for your input, anywhere else would be greatly appreciated.
Poor Billy, I didn't know he was in a nursing home, perhaps i could visit him and take my turn at the ablutions etc.. hehe ::)
