Ibiza end of may for a week with wife and little un. Then have three weeks off work end of July that are currently without a location but budget is limited due to house being renovated. Staycation is such a s*** word.

[Gethin]

Hopefully shutting the B&B in December and going to Asia scuba diving - got a ton of Virgin air miles to use so fly into HK and take it from there

[muleskinner]

Iceland in a weeks time then somewhere else in August, dunno yet, Montenegro is tempting but probably end up in Greece or Spain somewhere.

First time?

 

not for me, have been twice before, last time was in 2005. It is first time for both of my kids and they can't wait... 

Will have changed a lot since I last went with all the Harry Potter stuff and new rides.. Staying in a Disney hotel for 10 nights and a Universal one for 3 nights.

We've got a lot of family and friends mini-jaunts planned for this year so we may end up not having a proper holiday because we'll be using up a lot of hols just doing long weekends etc.

 

I am trying to work in a week on some remote Scottish island for our wedding anniversary which will also then take in the Kraftwerk gig in Glasgow on the way home. Trying to break this to Mrs.C. is a delicate long game. Wish me luck.

10 days in Kauai at the end of May. A week of house and neighborhood checking in Florida at the 32nd of July.

Throw in a few college visits and it'll be busy.

Nice one - not done HK before. You living there?

[The Hitman]

Yep. Been here a few years but now heading off to Sydney.

How long are you planning to stay in HK? I would advise 2/3 days max as in reality there's not too much to see/do here other than the bars/restaurants.

Nice one - Sydney's great considering you're surrounded by Aussies

 

Was only thinking a couple of days to acclimatise - vague plan is to go to Thailand, Vietnam and possibly Gili Islands diving after that.
