DH wants Mexico:sun:, and I'd go again! I've been to Xcaret before and it is so worth a trip back! Can I just say that DH is so excited that he has even asked if I have broken down what I need to do each month. He also has asked for dates of New Director Academy and NC. He is ready and willing to see my biz take off!

MEXICO! especially since it is all inclusive and I would love to buy-in the kids! What an experience for them at their ages!

PARIS!!! Mostly because those dates are the only ones that would coincide with my parents being able to watch the kids.
Although the Mexico one would be my choice if only those dates worked. I've been to the Barcelo Maya resort (it was our last all-inclusive vacation) and it was AWESOME there!! It's beautiful there and I'm sure even nicer since they had to re-do it since the hurricane. I'll have to dig out my old pictures of that resort. I think we were there about 8 or 9 years ago.:)

VERY tough decision, but I earned the 7 day cruise, Altlantis and this year the cruise. I hate to pass up the sand and surf, but I have never travelled abroad. Although I took 3 years of French in High School, I can only say "s*it" and Patty LaBelle's "will you sleep with me tonight."!!!! I am SOOOOO excited about Paris. The buildings and the food all excite me. The negative I have heard, is that Americans are not terribly popular there, but I think PC will protect us!! I booked two shows today just to get more double points!!:party:

Not true. I was there a couple of years ago. I can tell you that the trick is to TRY to speak a few words in French. They will smile and answer in English. EVERYONE was wonderful to me. I think we get that reputation because a lot of Americans expect to be understood in English even when we are visiting abroad.
My goal is Mexico too, though I wouldn't mind if I only end up in Miami. Paris didn't appeal since I've been there AND it's right down the road (4 hours by car).

I hope to brush up on my french if I earn this. I probably took 6 or so years of it between high school and college, but don't remember much. I was also an exchange student in France for a summer and it's SO sad how quickly it goes away once you never use it. This would be a fun excuse to get that back.:)

as I sit here and type, the temperature is dropping and we are expecting a wintry mix tomorrow! I am not trying to punish myself here, but doesn't this look just heavenly?
