Re: OH HEY, GOT ANY SUMMER PLANS?
U2 in Edmonton was gonna kick off my summer but Bono's back is broke...
In August it’s Santigo de la Ribera to papa’s casa we go... Heiress,we used to haunt Salt Spring as wicked mischievious youths,once the islanders chased us from our campsite to the ferry dock where the local RCMP constable held us until the next morning's boat came in...my fave Gulf Island destination ever: http://www.cliffhousecottages.com/

Re: OH HEY, GOT ANY SUMMER PLANS?
Dang, I was thinking about hitting up Seattle too but not until August!
Moot, I have TOTALLY looked longingly at that website before. I must stay there at some point in the future. I wish my papa had a casa there

Re: OH HEY, GOT ANY SUMMER PLANS?
Seattle is just an amazing place, I never take for granted how fantastic this area is. The summers are incredibly comfortable. Come on up and take a ferryboat ride, go to the market, checkout the neighborhoods and great food. You'll be awestruck. It is on.
I have 3 weeks off in late July through mid-August off and 10 of those days will be a combination motel, hotel, campground trip driving out of Seattle through the Oregon coast (the Oregon Coast is Outstanding) and ending up at the California Redwoods. For the past 10+ years I've been going to the mid-Oregon coast staying in Lincoln City as a home base. The whole area is about mental decompression and excellent seafood. It's nowheresville. I'm ready... this past year I've been paying off credit cards from my other expedia trips... I went berserk and broke. Over $10,000 on trips in the past 2 years.

I've been once before to Seattle. I love it there. If my body could handle cold/rainy climates for long periods at a time I'd totally live there. But unfortunately I need a constant 60-80 range only. All year long. Otherwise I have health problems out the ass. |

Re: OH HEY, GOT ANY SUMMER PLANS?
I'm off to Las Vegas for 3 weeks in June. My older brother who lives there is turning 40, so my parents, my younger brother, his girlfriend and I are going.
5 years since I was there last time. It was the end of April that time. Now it's gonna be warm.

Re: OH HEY, GOT ANY SUMMER PLANS?
I wanna be there when you visit Montreal! My fiancé always comes home to the west coast when he has his summers off though.
Let me know when you are going and I will tell all the best places to shop & eat there!

Re: OH HEY, GOT ANY SUMMER PLANS?
I fucking love Seattle! Hope to move there someday. Probably visiting in fall.
We already had a nice four-day vacay in the Yosemite area but it wasn't all that exciting (spent most of it being lazy with bf's fam so very little outdoorsy hiking stuff) so I'm dying to get more camping in. We're going to Chicaaahgo in July (and seeing miss DDD ) for a long weekend and a work thing in there. Otherwise, nothing huge. Maybe Portland at some point if flights is cheap. We spent a bunch on Chi-town and did a ton of traveling last year, so nothing huge this summer. Hopefully hanging out in wine country a bit, though.

Re: OH HEY, GOT ANY SUMMER PLANS?
Holy balls I had no idea how many of you enjoy our happy little enclave in the northwest corner.
It's driving me a little nuts right now because of the aforementioned rainyness (I want to bike to work already!). But I am starting to smell summer in the air and looking forward to lazy afternoons jumping in the lake and snoozing on the grass at Magnuson park. I hope the weather cooperates, it's so enjoyable here when it's sunny! Those of you making your way to Seattle this summer, look me up! There are some new fun quirks emerging (speakeasys) in the nightlife and of course there is also the wonderful wilderness complete with hikes, alpine lakes and other associated loveliness not so far outside the city if you have time. <3

No self-respecting Seattleite uses one unless it's monsoon conditions and your waterproof REI or Northface jacket isn't cutting it (which I suppose does sometimes happen at Bshoot). But in those cases you usually just shrug, get wet and hope they don't stop the show.

Re: OH HEY, GOT ANY SUMMER PLANS?
Just been thinking about my trips this summer - I want to do loads without any real plans hammered. I could be in europe by end of June but the person I'm supposed to be travelling with is unreliable. It was by a forum and she sometimes doesn't respond for ages so looking at solo travel again - like shall I just head to europe and see where the wind takes me? I'm a a lot more comfortable doing that in the states than I am in europe. Dunno why when its technically better for me in europe but I suppose its cus I know fudge all about that great big mass of land less than an 100 miles to the east of me. Hmmmms.
Camping in the peaks tho last weekend and again twice in june hopefully so thats something |

Re: OH HEY, GOT ANY SUMMER PLANS?
haha, yeah. But its a way to go when you're single and all your friends have 9-5 lives here. Potentially every new friend is a killer - its like saying its safer to end up at someone randoms house while intoxicated than it is talking for months while stalking their facebook and blogs.
It was a travellers forum and we've been talking on and off for over 6 months. I also made it clear that if we take a dislike to each other then we head our separate ways. Plus she is a woman and I'm a man, pretty sure I could over power her. It'd be more risk for her to as she is from canada and has further to head back home than me. The web is the future dude - no need for real life friends anymore. |

Re: OH HEY, GOT ANY SUMMER PLANS?
I finish my course in July, get promoted, turn 25, get a new car and have some weeks off work. I think I will travel somewhere, I want to go to Israel or something.
