This Week's prompt is: Traveling
My favorite mode of travel would have to be the one I am most comfortable with - by car. I have traveled by bus and plane but have never been on a train or a cruise ship. I would like to do both of those at some point but just haven't gotten around to it. I have a friend that works for Princess Cruises and she is always telling me that it's the way to go and she can hook me up with a great trip. To date I haven't had the time or money to take her up on it, although I would love to do a cruise to Alaska. Right now I am planning a trip across the ocean - by plane - to see my first grandchild when he arrives or sometime soon after. It's kind of hard to plan a trip when you don't know exactly when you're going! As of right now my traveling experience exists mostly of places in the US - TN/VA/KY/OH/IN/MI/WI/AL/GA/FL/TX/NE/ID/MO/and of course IL.Really haven't been many places have I?
I hate flying ... not only is it expensive, but it's such a pain. And DH enjoys driving, and we are really well-suited to driving together. Not to mention that we can pack as much/whatever we want - no restrictions! ;-) We will be trying a new means of transportation in a little more than 11 months - cruising. Our first cruise will be to the Caribbean (since we love warm weather and beaches). But we'd really love to do a cruise to Alaska. I have a feeling that if the cruise next January goes well, we'll book a cruise to Alaska. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI think the secret to enjoying flying is to wear comfortable clothes, pack light, take a good book (I always take my kindle) and most important go potty before you get on the plane. I love to sit by the window and imagine what is happening way down there where the lakes look like splashes, and the mountains like a wrinkled tablecloth.
ReplyDeleteI always manage to get car sick!
ReplyDeleteFunny how I don't get seasick on a cruise though....
I forgot to add.... I added you to the linky... it is up now!
ReplyDeleteThe more I think about it, an Alaskan cruise sounds very intriguing. Something completely different from sand, sun and surf. Hopefully someday!
