1. Cross country road trip moving back to Los Angeles from northern New Jersey. My older brother and I rode with my dad in a 1962 VW Beetle while my younger brother and older sister followed with my mom. Outside Las Vegas my dad had me sit in the footwell because it was the only relief from the sun and, at 5 years old, I wasn't tall enough to use the sun visor. Thanks to dad, I survived.
ReplyDelete2. There are a few trips that I do repeat - camping in the redwoods and the north coast, camping in Gaviota outside Santa Barbara, and a week in San Diego as a restorative.
3.Fresno - I work with many terrific people down there, but the area seems to have the least appealing aspects of that part of the world - heat in the summer, fog in the winter, and bad air quality.
4. Dream trip would be a round trip cruise from San Francisco to the Hawaiin islands,to Australia, New Zealand and back. Don't know whether or not anyone actually does that but it's my dream, so I get to say it.
5. Restorative trip to San Diego is coming up in November.
Cross country in a Bettle is a long drive,

DeleteWhat is your earliest memory of traveling? Cross Country Bus trip from Phoenix AZ to Troy NY with my Mom and 4 siblings.
ReplyDeleteIf you had to pick one trip to repeat, what would it be? With so little to choose from, I'd go with San Diego or San Francisco...I suspect both have more to offer than what I experienced on my visit to each.
Where have you traveled to, that you hope to never go back to? I'm not sure I've written off an entire locale, yet. Several downtrodden cities in NY State have depressed me and I have no desire to go back.
What is your dream trip? Not sure I have one. I've traveled so little that almost any place inside or outside of the US would count as a a dream trip for me. But places I think about: Hawaii, Ireland, France, Alaska, Italy...
Where to next? Keene, NH for Jeffrey's 56th birthday.
