I would like ideas for short trips California for the rest of this year. All I have experienced is Napa. As a California native I have been to lots of places as a child but not as an adult. I want to go to Brasil and Vancouver, Canada for next year. I would love to take the Rocky Mountaineer train to Calgary. Hawaii is in the plans , too. I love South Beach, Miami and Ft. Lauderdale. Fun, Fun, FUN! They are great destinations. My Bucket list includes Costa Rica, Panama, Thailand, cruise down the Nile River and the Yangzee River, Mombasa, Africa, Morocco, just to name o few. I love the Caribbean, especially Grand Turk! I would absolutley LOVE to go on that Russian ice breaking ship to the artic! I'm up for anything at least once! I look forward to sharing travel tips and information with our group. I'm excited to meet all of you.
