If money grew on the tree in the garden:

Holiday 1
A tour of North America, starting with Canada, see all the sights there and the great lakes and Niagra Falls and then down into New York for some shopping, then down to Florida/Orlando, then over to Vegas, see the shows and do the helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon, then into California, San Francisco, and LA to see Hollywood, and then finally down into Mexico, see the Mayan pyramids etc and finish with a week just chilling on the beach in Cancun 8)

Holiday 2
Fly out to Australia via a 2-3 night stopover in either Hong Kong or Singapore, then spend 3-4 weeks in Oz, just taking it all in, see the sights, track down my long-lost cousins who, I think, are still somewhere around Perth, then over to Sydney, the Barrier Reef, Melbourne etc, then over to New Zealand for a couple of weeks to see all the sights there and then back home but not before I've had a week chilling in Dubai along the way :D

Holiday 3
Condensed hybrid of the first two: Dubai, Australia, New Zealand, Hawaii, Vegas, New York and then home. Still beyond my purse at the moment, but here's hoping one day....

1) Australia, climb of Sydney harbour Bridge, seeing the Barrier Reef and Ayers Rock would be definites as wwould going somewhere that I could see kangaroos and koloa bears in their natural habitat.

2) Easter Island for the statues. Studied them in History age 13 and was fascinated by them.

3) Cruise of Norwegian Fjords. wanted to do that since seeing the Fjords on TV aged about 9/10.

4) Pompeii and Herculanium.

5) Eastern Europe, mainly Prague. Would also like to see one of the concentration camps.

Have already done The Acropolis in Athens which was fantastic. Also done the battlefields of Flanders.

I love History. Hubby is interested to a certain point but I'm working on him.

If I had the money and the time, I would love to visit each of the Wonders of the World. Not just the Ancient Wonders but the Natural Wonders, the Modern Wonders, the Forgotten Wonders and the Underwater Wonders (far too many to see in my lifetime I suspect :shock:).

I have already visited the Great Pyramid of Giza (An Ancient Wonder) and the Eiffel Tower and Big Ben (Forgotten Modern Wonders) but would love a tour to see the rest of the them.

What a journey that would be :)

Also, Thailand as been twice and loved it but can't afford to go again at the moment.
Australia is next.....then New York staying in the Waldorf Astoria, off to NY for the fourth time in October, can't get enough of the place but would love to stay somewhere deluxe!

If money were no object........
The possibilities would be endless. I don't think I'd go too far as the flight would put me off. I'd probably buy a villa somewhere in Greece and stay for long periods at a time. The only thing that would stop me moving out there permanently would be the thought of not seeing my sons very often (eventhough they are 21 and 24). How sad am I?
