I have about 4 in the works for the next few months, who knows if I'll do any at the moment. Depends on flight loads.
Orlando in the next two weeks Alaska possibly with FI's family somewhere in the fall Boston with my mom before Halloween Chicago somewhere between December 18th and December 25 for the German Christmas festival they have every year.
Next definite trip is to Disney World in August 2011. Sooo excited! We go with my old dance studio where my siblings still dance every two years. We get an awesome discount because we're such a large group and we'll hopefully be going during the free meal plan weeks so that'll save even more money. First meeting is in October. I can't wait!
BF and I are hopefully going to do either a weekend snowboarding or spa getaway (or combination of both) for our anniversary in January, but that really depends on job situations.

Booo...no vacations in the near future for me except a couple of out of town weddings. But I'm a bridesmaid in one of them, so no free time.
Buuuuuuut....I'm already excited for our honeymoon next June! We set the dates yesterday with both of our bosses.. It looks like we will be gone from June 18- July 10! I can't wait!

I'm off to Cancun for work in late September, and spending the weekend there with my colleagues.
Then BF and I are off to Europe in October - going to Vienna, Munich, and Paris. So excited!
This weekend we're going down to Key Largo to go snorkeling and for a sunset cruise on a catamaran. I love swimming and sailing, so I'm really looking forward to it! My BF won't swim when there is seaweed, so beach swimming is out, and we don't live in an apartment complex with access to a pool so I haven't been swimming in quite awhile.
We also will be going to Universal Orlando for my birthday in December. We're also trying to work in a trip to Busch Gardens since BF gets a free ticket due to his military service, and I'd get Florida Resident discount, so we'd pay only $60 total for both of us for a day.
Such fun things you gals are up to. I'm due to head to the USVI towards the end of next month to perform, and hopefully, depending on BF's schedule, I'll be up to SanFran to visit him before that, on my half-term break.
Both BF and I were big backpackers and stayed in tons of hostels, so it depends on the trip. For work trips, we get put in nice hotels. For our trip to Europe, we're getting hotels because they're the same cost as both of us staying in a hostel (plus the added privacy and security benefits). We're not splurging except one night - most of the hotels are $40-60/night, with the one B&B in the Champagne region of France being $120.
We're planning a trip to Oregon next summer to camp out and try out a bunch of microbreweries. We also want to go to Colorado to visit my brother and his girlfriend and go on a multi-day hike with them.
FI and I haven't been on vacation since we started dating... we've traveled on weekends for weddings here and there and went camping on the river but thats it. We won't have a "vacation" until our honeymoon in May and then we will be taking a long weekend to a lake house in July with his family so it will be worth the long wait to have a couple of good ones next year!

We mostly motel it. The only time we camp is when we specifically go camping, and I've never stayed in a hostel.

My next big trip is in February for BF's sister's wedding in St. Lucia! It's in 170 days or so - we don't know exactly when we're going or when we're coming back (it'll probably be a long weekend), but she's getting married on the 20th.
I'm super excited - his father is paying for just about everything except airfare (BF offered to pay for half of mine) and I've never been to the Caribbean. BF has never even been out of the country! He needs to get a passport.
170 Invited (holy crap!)
98 are coming to party!
29 have other plans

I'm going to Hawaii a week from Friday!! BF wants to go to Belize next. I also think his grandma wants to do a trip with everyone to France next summer to go visit family. I think in France we will stay with his family if there's enough room, but if not we'll do a hotel. Too bad his uncle sold his place in Paris though because now we'll definitely have to do a hotel there.
I'm driving down to LA this weekend for another Dodgers game. This time it's Dodgers vs. Giants, and with BF being a Giants fan and me a Dodgers fan, it's personal
We're trying to decide on a date for our Ireland/Scotland/England trip sometime next year. We'll also be taking an Alaskan cruise sometime next year. And probably throw in a weekend getaway to San Diego sometime before the wedding to de-stress.
Oh, wait, were we talking real life or dreamland? Cause those were my dreamland vacations. Real life: no where, not even a honeymoon at this point (probably no HM till our 1st or 2nd anniversary). I'll stick with my dreamland vacations for now.
Counting down to our honeymoon/vacation to Anaheim/San Diego for Blizzcon and Dinsyeland for 7 days. DH keeps asking me "Is it October yet ?" - it's going to be an amazing week of celebration. We are going to hit Disneyland , California Adventure and have booked several restaurants to have dinners at already. In addition we are going to Medeival Times - I have never gone and am excited for that too !

However, Europe, Australia, New Zealand has always been hostels. While Asia has been more guesthouses.

I'm super excited - his father is paying for just about everything except airfare (BF offered to pay for half of mine) and I've never been to the Caribbean. BF has never even been out of the country! He needs to get a passport.
But to be fair, I've been on four vacations in the past year. So I guess it's time to relax... at home.
If anyone wants to bring me, I can fit in a suitcase.
I've only ever stayed in hotels/motels as far as I can remember.
Nantucket! DH and I are going in early October.
Oh, wait, were we talking real life or dreamland? Cause those were my dreamland vacations. Real life: no where, not even a honeymoon at this point (probably no HM till our 1st or 2nd anniversary). I'll stick with my dreamland vacations for now.
