If money were no object, and you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go?

Right now I would want to go to Acadia National Park  The fall foliage would be fantsatic. I'd include some light hiking.They have some trails I can access with a walker. Horse and buggy to ride around the island. Lobster dinner, boat ride. A small cabin with a fireplace would be nice with a waterview.

"Pretty much anywhere with Cindy Crawford", muses Rudi Xeno.  "Oh dear, was that microphone on?"

Actually, Maui is probably my favorite destination.  Diving in Molokini Crater, dawn on top of Mount Haleakala and the Road to Hana make for an adventurous and romantic vacation.  You really need about ten days there.  Better make it two weeks.

And I would go along with MRSverret if she'd have me ;)

Just a trip to any beach with blue water would be my fave.  There is no blue water here.

Australia.  I'm not interested in visiting many other countries, but this is one I would like to. 

I would have said Hawaii except I think that is something we could save up for in the future, although it won't be for awhile!  At least that is "affordable", even if the flights cost a ton!

A week of no worries! Out in the country, peaceful, listening to all those animal noises, beautiful scenery. Just to get away from all the traffic out here.

Next  to that, would be either another Cruise. Or just go and lay on a Beach with white sand, clearwater. Not a care in the world. I think a week or two would do me some good. Some guys fan me, put lotion all over me, feed me grapes, a massage, and look at their washboard abs!!! Yeah, that sounds good.

I would love to spend two weeks in Italy.  I want to see the whole country, from the rural area of Tuscany to the city of Rome.  I want to drink the wine, eat the food and see the beautiful sights.  If I have time, I want to go down to Sicily and have some olives and Lemoncello.  Before I take that vacation, we are going to go on a European cruise that stops at different Italian ports so we know a little bit of what we like for our two week vacation.

Pretty much anywhere with Diane Lane...if she weren't already married.  Or even....oh, I don't know...Campbell Brown of CNN, if she was single....

Right now, I'd settle for going to Atlanta. A friend of mine who used to like review sites and lived in Texas with her husband and daughter has been wanting to meet me in person (along with her whole family, I must hasten to add), but one thing or another always seemed to come up.  They moved back to Atlanta recently and my friend says that the invitation is still open....that they need to find a suitable rental and get established before I go but that I'm still welcome to go.

I want to go to a tropical resort with scenery that they show during Survivor.  I don't want the "Survivor experience" just the view.

Well if money is no object.....I'd like to go on an elongated touring of the South Pacific.  Tahiti, Bora Bora, Samoa, Fiji, then end up backpacking the east coast of Austrailia from Sydney to Cairns.  Maybe hit Ayers Rock too.

For as long as I can remember my dream vacation has been to spend a week touring Ireland on horseback. I'm half Irish so I've always wanted to see Ireland.

My life long passion has been horses & I have owned/ridden them for over 50 years. (Yes, I am that old.)

What a perfect way to combine them.

I live in Maine and have visited Acadia many times. It is everything you say it is and more. I hope you will be able to visit there soon. I promise you, you won't be disappointed.

From a movie that is coming out, about couple therapy. It was shot in Bora, Bora. Man did that look beautiful. I think I could tear myself away to go there, once I hit the lottery. Keep dreaming!

I would love to take a boat trip deep into the rainforests on the Amazon. Also go hiking around in the jungle. There's a big creek near our property where I sometimes hike for hours. It's creepy and very primal and I'm addicted.

I plan to start going to Europe in the summers. One country per trip. I want to rent an Alfa and drive all over, not just see the tourist traps. For now, though, it's just a dream.

I'd like to do the South Pacific tour too--Fiji, Samoa, etc.  I'd also like to see the Galapagos Islands.

Hi! I think that sounds great a boat trip deep in the rainforest in the Amazon. Just be careful if you go swimming. They have a certain little fish!!!!

Dog sledding in Alaska, sail around the world in a sailboat, climb a few mountains, stay in ice hotels, spend time in Hawaii, visit New Zealand and Antartica and Australia!
