Perfect vacation? Oh that's easy, I've been finding myself day dreaming about it lately, Fiji, with the family with NOTHING to do, but play & relax. How's that to escape the crazy rollercoaster of life ... oh yes, we'd have to teleport there, because flying with 3 kids that far, might not start the vacation off well.

Kristina, I do get mini get aways in the craft studio thanks to your blog. You're awesome, have fun in Disneyland.

Karen, Dorset:

My perfect holiday would be two weeks at home with my hubby and my little dog in the summer. It has been 20 years since we have had a fortnight off during the summer - the last time being our honeymoon. We sometimes get a longer break at Christmas but it's dark and cold and usually miserable. I enjoy the simple things in life like my garden, the countryside and just being with my hubby and hound so it doesn't cost much - it's being chained to our business that stops us having a fortnight!

Oh to dream.....my perfect vacation would be me and hubby on a tradewinds island, and both of us would be buff, so we could wear the perfect clothes, or not, and look like those gorgeous commercials with billowy sheer white fabric blowing around us. BUT!!! FOR NOW my perfect vacation is when we take the granchildren, and their moms and dads to Disney World for 3 weeks this March! Yup that is what I said three weeks! LOL!YIPPEEEEE cannot wait! Animal Kingdom here we come...so get ready! Thanks Kristina for giving me a dream this morning! ~Donna

My perfect vacation would be the one I am taking in Feb. My husband and I are going on a cruise. We are cruising the Caribbean and we have a balcony suite. We are so looking forward to just lazing around, laying in the sun, and just relaxing.

My favorite vacation would be to go to Europe with my husband, but since finances aren't what they should, I will just dream!

I really would love to go to Hawaii one of these days we are saving our change in a jar for several years and when it reaches the top just my husband and I will go on vacation without the kids!

Hoping to win one of your generous blog giveaways!

I would love to go to New York with my husband. (the kids would have a wonderful time with grandpa and grandma) :-) My husband and I often stay up waaaay too late because after we've put the kids to bed, we still want time for us. It usually ends in us falling asleep on the couch. haha. I'd love it if it was snowing while we were there, too!

I would love to go on an Alaskan cruise with my husband, son, brother, sister-in-law, and their twin babies. My kid brother is coming home in a few weeks from a year in Iraq and hasn't seen his babies most of their first year of life. Laughing, sightseeing, and just spending time with all of them together (since we live in different parts of the country, and, at the moment, the world) would be the ultimate vacation. :-)

My "perfect" vacation right now would be a trip to disney world. I would want to share it with my hubby and my little bear. My husband and I are such big kids and have only been there once... and If I did not bring my daughter I would miss her too much.

Enjoy your trip to Disney!

My perfect vacation would be to finally go on my honeymoon. My husband and I want to go to Hawaii and just hang out at the beach and relax for 10 days. I would love to fly first class and not have to think about working or anything. Unfortunately, my husband almost died 2 weeks before we got married. Our wedding and honeymoon were canceled. He finally had his last surgery to recover from the whole process 2 years ago.

Andrea D:

My dream? Maui, baby. Maui.
This time I'd bring the whole family - and a babysitter. I would get spa treatments, lay by the pool watching the kids play with my DH and maybe muster the energy to join them every few hours. We'd eat like kings and queens, spare no expense, go on fun excursions- the works.
BTW, in this dream I'm a size two, glowing skin, and dressed in the chicest vacation attire.

I just had the most perfect vacation last October. My husband and I started in Seattle and drove all the way down to San Diego. I would love to do that again but next time start in Boston and end up in DC. I love road trips and love spending my vacations with my husband. What i love about it the most is how we just drove where our garmin would take us....we didnt have a schedule and didn't have a plan. we just drove and saw the world the way it should be seen. it was such a beautiful drive.

My perfect vacation would be to see a launch at the Kennedy Space center with my hubby. We went on honeymoon, but missed a launch by 2 days.

I've never seen my husband so excited before! He was like a big kid looking at all of the space stuff, even though we spent 4 days at Disney!

Christine Fournaise, Montreal, Canada:

Good morning!

I love your blog, it is extremely inspiring!

Can I pick two perfect vacations? :-)
One would be anywhere warm and kid friendly to spend some quality time with my two sons (2 and 4) and my husband. Returning to Walt Disney World would be the ultimate destination!
Another would be a cruise alone with my husband for a second honeymoon. Anywhere, I will take it! :-)
These two trips are on my "to do" list; hopefully it can be done in the next few years!

Enjoy your trip to Disneyland!

It's not a case of 'what would be' but 'what is' our favourite place to vacation. We love Fraser Island, we being my hubby, myself and our four children. And we do it in style by camping! It's great fun, and Fraser Island is just stunning.

Fantastic prizes! The BG file set is one of my must-haves and I couldn't live without it!
It I could go anywhere right now, I would head out to Nova Scotia. I recently met my birth mother (she came to Ontario to meet me), but I have a brother and other family members that I have never met. I'd love to finally meet them all and spend time seeing where they grew up.

My perfect vacation would be a month of relaxation hopping from country to country in southeast Asia. I would start in Thailand, then jump around to nearby islands discovering unique and isolated beaches, eating the local foods, and buying great finds!

My dream holiday... it's definitely with my hubby and it's between 2 top choices -
* Europe & UK - particularly England & France (for the romance of Paris and to practise my limited French)
* or anywhere warm with a beautiful beach - the kind you see in travel ads where you can lie on the beach all day enjoying the sun!!

My perfect vacation? Who knows? My dream vacation? I'd like to go to Alaska, to Paris, to the Caribbean again.
I DO know, though, that I want my husband with me 'cause we go everywhere together and I truly enjoy his company (good thing, huh?!?!).
And I'd love to treat my mom to another cruise - she went on her first a couple of years ago and LOVED it!

January 21, 2009 @ 7:10 AM

I would love to spend some time in St. John. The warmth of the tropics and the amazing surroundings are so enticing! Of course, I would love to just go with my hubby and have a romantic getaway, but I know that we would bring our kiddies with us. We always have fun with them around. Maybe we would be able to sneak some alone time in there, who knows! Thanks for the the chance for the goodies!

Dream vacation? A cruise to the caribbean with a balcony room. DH and I in one room, and kids in adjoining suite. Probably include my parents and brother/SIL to help broaden the availability of others we like to do stuff with :) several snorkeling adventures and beach relaxation, with lots of water time (parasailing, boat rides, jet skis). Whew - may just have to book it!!

My dream vacation would be a trip all around Europe with my husband. I have only been to London, England so far and it was for work, so I didn't get to do much sightseeing except for one day in London doing all the main touristy stuff. We would love to go to France, England, Ireland, Italy, e.v.e.r.y.w.h.e.r.e. :) to see anything and everything!

What a fun question, Kristina! And thanks for fun prizes, I've never entered before, but I thought I would- I guess I'm feeling lucky today!

I would love to go to Greece. I've been blessed to go to Switzerland, France, England, and Mexico- so Greece seems like the next logical spot, besides I've heard its BEAUTIFUL! :) I'd also like to go for free if we're granting wishes here. ;)

Have a terrific Wednesday!

Willa Jean Coates:

My hubby and I experienced the perfect vacation this past September. We went on a 7-day cruise. This was our first cruise and we were totally 100% blown away by the cruising experience. This has been a dream for us. We just celebrated our 28th anniversary in Dec. We talk about the cruise constantly. Very fulfilling trip. We can't wait, but have to, to cruise in 2010. Oh, we went to Nassau, St. Thomas & St. Maarten(sp).

Martha:

Our favorite vacation is camping. We began camping 6 years ago after I was diagnosed with breast cancer. It is such great family time. Even though our children are now 14 and 16 they haven't outgrown camping. No telephone or tv but we do have lots of games. We love to learn a new card game on each camping trip. The other great part of camping is that my husband does almost all the cooking over the fire outside (both he and our son are Eagle Scouts). Just writing about this is making me look forward to spring and the next camping trip!

Thank you for the opportunity to enter the giveaways. I usually take some scrapbook/carding stuff with me!

My dream vacation would be to take my husband and 2girls to Germany to see Crazy Ludwigs Castle..Neuswanstein or however it is spelled. It's the castle that Cinderella's castle at Disneyworld is modeled after!

Jean (naturecoastcrafter) Cross:

Hey K!

I would spend the entire month of May on the island of Santorini (Greece--like in the travelin pants movies). I would sit on the caldera with my DH and just watch the sunsets and water. At least once a week we would go to the Archipelago restaurant and sit outside overlooking the lagoon and sip wonderful Greek barrel wine. We would take the bus to Oia at least once a week, too and mingle with the other locals and tourists there to celebrate the sunset. I would rest each afternoon with the gentle breezes blowing in the window and at night, we wouldn't eat dinner until 10:00 because that's the custom. . .thanks for the dream!

I got to go to Australia and New Zealand when I was 17 as part of a global ambassador program. My dream vacation would be to revisit there, and bring my fiancee along. I think he would LOVE it there, and I have so many great memories that I want to tell him all about.

Bonnie Nack:

My perfect vacation would be to go somewhere warm, no phones. Just a nice cabin on the lake with all my stamping supplies and being able to stamp to my hearts content. Of course I would have to bring along some reading material as I am a avid reader. On second thought a cabin on the lake, stamping, reading and close to a race track as I am also a avid sprint car fan. What a dream vacation that would be.

Jean (naturecoastcrafter) Cross:

Hey K!

I would spend the entire month of May on the island of Santorini (Greece--like in the travelin pants movies). I would sit on the caldera with my DH and just watch the sunsets and water. At least once a week we would go to the Archipelago restaurant and sit outside overlooking the lagoon and sip wonderful Greek barrel wine. We would take the bus to Oia at least once a week, too and mingle with the other locals and tourists there to celebrate the sunset. I would rest each afternoon with the gentle breezes blowing in the window and at night, we wouldn't eat dinner until 10:00 because that's the custom. . .thanks for the dream!

I would love to go to Italy one day. I have never been but I think it would be a wonderful place to visit. My husband and I were planning a trip there on our 10th year anniversary. However, finances have prevented us from going. So now we are planning on being there on our 12th year anniversary.

Anyway, thanks for the chance to win this AWESOME giveaway.

My perfect vacation would be to go to Hot Springs, AR with my most wonderful hubby of almost 25 years. I would stay at the Arlington Hotel and get a massage every day I was there. Just kick back and relax. No kids, no phone, no work, etc. Get the picture?!?!?! If you have never had a massage you should go and get you one at Hot Springs!! It is absolutely to die for!!

Hmmm... The perfect vacation?!
Well... It would be with my husband and my son (a 2yo. baby boy)... Considering how much my baby likes water and fish and sea animals, the best place would be SeaWorld... After that, some beach and sand... ;)

My dream vacation is to go back to Spain and stay at an hotel on or across from the beach with a balcony. I would go with my husband and one other couple. I went to Spain in 1986 and stayed at an hotel across from the beach and I had a balcony I would sit there and watch the sunset.

My family is planning a trip out west in the summer of 2010. We will visit state parks along the way and take in the beauty that is our country! I would leave today if we could.

My favorite vacation would probably be to Disneyworld. We love Disney and there is something for all of us. We went when our oldest son was 2 1/2 and the twins were one...that was a little rough, but they will be 2 next month and it would be easier. The bonus part is that family goes with us so my dear husband of 16 years and I could get some alone time. And who doesn't love Mickey???

My perfect vacation would be a week in DISNEY WORLD!!! I can't help it...I LOVE that place!!!

My husband and I have yet to take any trips to Europe or Asia together and we'd love to traipse around either one. We've both gone separately when younger, but it gets harder and harder to do that after you get into the "real world" and have to work!

January 21, 2009 @ 7:26 AM

Sarah Pratt:

My perfect vacation would be with my husband (of course) and going someplace extravagant, like Italy or Scotland/Ireland, staying in lavish hotels, eating delicious foods (not haggis), and spending all kinds of money we don't have on silly souveniers. I want to go to Italy before I die! My husband can't even stand the Olive Garden, so I guess he'll just have to starve!

Becky:

My perfect vacation would be with my family on a beach with powdery sand, clear blue water, 80-85 degree clear, sunny weather, a frozen drink in hand and no thoughts or stress about what's going on at work! I have trouble relaxing on vacations... isnt' that strange?

Right now it would be any place with blue skies and sunshine. We have been under deep cloud cover for over two weeks. We now have a SAD lamp on order! :)My person of choice would be my best friend and husband, Tim. We prefer to go places where there is lots to see and do. Santorini Greece is on our dream list.

Thanks for such a great blog and the chance to win some great stuff. Have a wonderful trip to Disneyland - you lucky girl!

The perfect vacation spot would be the beach. We've never been to Hawaii and I'd love to go with my hubby and little girl. Warm water, bright sunny days, balmy nights. I think it would be fun to see sand squish up between our toes. Drink MaiTais and eat yummy food. Oh yeah!

I would love to spend a couple weeks in England. My mom's side of the family is English and I'd like to meet my relatives and see where my great-grandfather lived and worked. I'd go to Stonehenge, see where Wordsworth wrote Lines Written Above Tintern Abbey, tour the Tower of London and so much more. Sometime in my life I MUST go.

January 21, 2009 @ 7:35 AM

karen k:

I would take my children on a "road trip" to Miami. Every summer, when I was a child, we would head to Miami from Chicago. I remember all of the wonderful old "kitchy" diners and motels, especially one we affectionately title "arsenic and old lace". Have fun in Disney!

January 21, 2009 @ 7:36 AM
156
 

My perfect vacation would be just me and the husband and would involve one of those private, secluded huts that are really luxurious but are very remote. And the weather would have to sunny but not too hot. The actual location doesn't matter as much as the little details.

Katie LaPorte:

I have 5 kids and the oldest is 3 (then 2 year old quadruplets) right now a vacation is when I go into the bathroom and shut the door!!! So...I'd love to go to Sanibel Island (Florida) and walk on the beach and swim in a pool and have lunch by the pool! Take a nap, read lots of books and relax with my husband!!!!! I would miss my kids like crazy but I'd be strong!!!

I'll settle for a trip to Vegas in April!!!! I'm counting the days already!

January 21, 2009 @ 7:37 AM

At the moment, Iowa is snowy, icy and COLD. I'd head somewhere HOT!!! Beach, sand, cabana boy and margaritas......I want it quiet (no fighting kids) and PEACEFUL...ahhhhhhhhhhhh Oh, and tons of BEAUTIFUL great smelling flowers please. Sounds like Hawaii to me.

January 21, 2009 @ 7:37 AM

Stephanie:

It is funny that you ask this question. My boss who tried to talk me into a cruise last week, thinks I'm crazy. My idea of an ideal vacation would be to backpack through Europe. The less that it is planned, the better. I would love walking around everywhere exploring the nooks and crannies of different countries throughout Europe without having a care in the world. If I had to sleep under the stars, fine by me. The more spontaneous, the better!

Oh, this is hard! I think my most perfect would be to recreate my honeymoom in a Lake Tahoe (CA) cabin. Only this time, with our kids! Just hanging out and playing for 2 weeks, money no object. Jet skiing, horseback riding, hiking, eating out at the most delicious restaurants!
I'd also like to go back to Italy and Ireland :)

Katie LaPorte:

I have a three year old and 2 year old quadruplets so a vacation for me is hiding in the bathroom right now!!!

I would love to be on Sanibel Island (or any beach) and wake up and go out to breakfast, come back and take a long walk on the beach then relax at the pool while reading good books and swimming in the pool. I'd have lunch by the poolside , take an afternoon nap and then slowly get dressed to go out to a nice dinner. I'd sleep the entire night through without any interruptions. I'd be with my husband and we'd enjoy every minute! We'd miss the kids terribly but we'd be strong!

I sent this a second time through permilink because the first time I went into comments...didn't mean to enter twice if I did. I thought I made a mistake.

I actually just got to take my perfect vacation in October. After 9 years of planning/saving we were able to take our 7 and 9 year old to Disney World for 10 days. It was the most fabulous trip ever. We had so much fun. The memories and 800 pictures we took will hopefully last forever. Being with my husband and children at a place where everyone can be a kid was really the best. I don't think I can ever beat this vacation. It was just so perfect. Thanks for letting me share.

I would love to travel to japan. I have been fascinated since watching a travel show about it like 8 years ago. I had hoped that while I was in the military that I would have gotten sent there, but nope, it's still my number one dream spot.

That's easy! :o) My perfect vacation would be a 6-week-holiday in the US, preferably on the east coast in and around Boston. But then I also love Yosemite and Yellowstone... And Florida is also a great place to be... Maybe 6 months would be better ;o)

My perfect vacation getaway would be with my hubby to Hawaii. Actually any beach/tropical location would do, but my hubby isn't fond of leaving US soil! Have a great trip to Disney!

My perfect vacation would be taking my hubby and kids touring Italy and Greece. Wondering all over ancient cities, me painting the ruins, eating traditional foods, and just trying to picture all of the other feet that had walked there before me.

Cathy from Seattle:

As I sit in front of my computer looking at the fog outside, knowing that it is below freezing and not going to get any warmer today.....I dream of my perfect holiday.

I'm thinking somewhere warm *LOL*, somewhere tropical, somewhere with an unbrella drink and a cute boy that brings them to me. Somewhere where I am relaxed, lazy and happy!

Thanks for the opportunity to take a break from reality ;)

January 21, 2009 @ 7:45 AM

My perfect vacation would involve traveling across Europe for an extended period of time (at least two weeks) and then having another week at home after it is over to recuperate and stamp before getting back to work. ;)

rachel m.:

Sign me up!!!
It might not be my favorite, but it's necessary. I'd go to Disneyland, and go with my hubby and 4 kids since none of us have ever been! But it's still 5 years away when my baby will be old enough to remember, incase we can only afford to go once.

Laura B.:

My perfect vacation would be a quiet trip into British Columbia, Canada. We currently live in Alberta (right next door to B.C.), but my husband has never been across the border. I, however, have been into B.C. several times and twice to Victoria. Since I have such fond memories of these trips, I wish I could share with my hubby and our two girls the wonder of the mountains and the beauty of the ocean. I am sure the girls would probably pick Disneyland over this any day, but I still think that it would be a wonderful family destination.

Have fun in Disneyland!

My perfect vacation would be to North Wales and the Uk to visit my ancestor's home. I would take my husband and two children with me. It would take place when it is comfortable to travel without any coats.

My dream vacation would be similar to one my husband and I took several years ago. We went to the UK, rented a car and just drove from London to Wales to Scotland staying at B&B's with NO reservations!. It was out first time driving on the left side of the road and it was a blast! I would love to do something like that again. Thanks for the goodies, Kristina and enjoy Disneyland!

Lisa B:

Vacation--what's that? Seriously, with 4 kids ranging in age from 2 to 14, most of our "vacations" are a lot of extra work for mom.

My dream vacation, nothing fancy. I'd love to go back to the great little bed and breakfast in Door County Wisc. that my husband and I visited before we had kids.

January 21, 2009 @ 7:51 AM

Wow, what an awesome giveaway! My perfect vacation would be the beach, any beach. I would want to stay at a place right on the beach. I love reading on the beach. You can put your Kindle in a clear ziploc baggie and read on the beach and not worry about sand or water. My hubby also does this in the bathtub. Love my Kindle too.

My favorite vacation would be to travel to USA. It would be great to be at a CHA, and also to spend the vacation shopping for scrapbookingstuff and scrapping with friends =) Thanks for having such wonderful giveaway's =) If I can choose, I really want to win the #1 giveaway. I'm actually the most interrested in the scalloped edge punch, so if I win but can't have the package with th scalloped punch, you should draw another name to win instead of me. Oh, and also, I already have the Basic Grey Filing set, so if I win the #1 package, the filing set should go to someone else too... A lot of if I win here... I hope, I hope, I hope =)

Perfect vacation would be on the ocean, any ocean, anywhere. I would have my husband with me for sure. Would be great if my two adult children could also come along.

My perfect vacation would be a cruise with my bff. It doesn't really matter where the cruise was to as long as it was a warm place. I have never been on one but my bff and I have always wanted to go on one. Hopefully someday we will be able to.

Thanks for the chance to win!

My perfect vacation is a mixture of relaxation and exploration mixed with exhileration. Last year, we went to Marco Island, Florida where we relaxed by the pool and at the beach, explored the Everglades by fanboat and went parasailing.

Travel anywhere? Where DON'T I want to travel...? I always love going overseas, but I think if I had unlimited money and time, I'd probably take the family and do about a month of travel in the US. Perhaps do the motor home thing and head west... Or east... or south... Probably not north for a while.

My perfect vacation is coming up in May. We're going to finally take our kids to disneyland! My husband and I and our girls having been waiting for this for a long time and I can't wait! it's going to be so great being on vacation with my favorite people!!

January 21, 2009 @ 7:55 AM

oooh, anywhere with lots of warm sunshine! And I'd go for one week...the first 3 days with just my dh...and then somehow our four kiddos would join us for the rest of the week. Dang, I really need a vacation...and some sunshine... :o)

January 21, 2009 @ 7:55 AM

I have 2 options that I'm willing to "settle" for ;-).

1. a romantic getaway to Italy with my husband. Just him and me in one of the most romantic places in the world. Yes please!
2. trip to Disney with the kiddos and my hubby. I can't wait to see their little faces light up . Seriously. Cannot. Wait!

Perfect vacation? Easy. Back to Ireland. Leave my husband and home and take my sister. I would travel throughout and shop, shop, shop. Then dig up some relatives and fill out the family tree. Oh, how nice it would be....

Hi Kristina! What great giveaways!
My perfect vacation would be going to the Smokies (love it there) with my husband and daughter and renting out a cozy cabin to stay in. We'd have a little family road trip there and then have little family adventures once we got there. I just love going places with my daughter, especially places she's never been before because of all of the excitement she has. It's like going somewhere for the first time for me, too! It's wonderful. I just think a little cozy cabin in the middle of the Smokies would be so much fun. :)

Thanks for the chance! Hope you have a fabulous time at Disneyland!

January 21, 2009 @ 8:00 AM

January 21, 2009 @ 8:01 AM

I *love* the scallop punch, but don't have it yet. This would be great!

My favourite vacation to date has been the "Great American Road Trip" I took with my husband in 2007. We drove from our home in Regina, Saskatchewan down through Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota. We were gone for about 10 days, and we left without really any plans. We didn't have anywhere to be at a certain time. We didn't have any hotel reservations. We brought our tent and sleeping bags so we could camp if we wanted. It was FANTASTIC to spend so much time with him, and it not be structured or stressful.

My dream vacation would be to go somewhere hot with my husband in the middle of winter. In Saskatchewan we get days, and sometimes weeks of -40 weather. I would love to be able to leave that all behind and go on a cruise, or to an all inclusive resort in a hot location and just relax for a week.

January 21, 2009 @ 8:01 AM

Oh wow you are giving away a lot of awesome goodies! So my perfect vacation would be a cruise to places like St. Kitts, St. Thomas, San Juan. I think the pictures of these places are SO BEAUTIFUL I just want to go see it for myself. I would bring my hubby there no question about that, but maybe cause cruise boats are HUGE I would invite another couple of friends to enjoy the experience with. Thanks again Kristina for being so kind to give all these awesome tools away.

Perfect vacation would be a trip back to Ocho Rios , Jamaica with my hubby. We got married there 10 years ago. We went back for our 1st Anniverary and would love to go back for our upcoming 10th anniversary!

I would like to go in Australia or in Japan or in USA but always and only with my husband.
we have been being married for 21 years and we don't succeed in being separate..... therefore my perfect vacation is anywhere but with him.

StampT:

My favorite vacation would be on a nice, warm, secluded, tropical beach. Maybe in one of those little private cottages. I'd go w/my DH (dear husband) of course. The water would have to be very clear. There would have to be palm trees with a hammock. I'd just lie in the hammock all day, read, and listen to the waves crashing on the beach. Maybe a little Island music coming from somewhere off in the distance. This is also where I'd like to retire to. Ah, to dream....

My ideal vacation seems to change every few years. Currently I am obsessed with Hawaii. I'm trying to convince my brother and his fiance that they should get married there so I have an excuse to go to. I'm a geography geek at heart, so bring on the volcano tours. I'm happy to go with friends or family.

Have fun at Disney! I'm there next week too, I'm so excited to leave my winter wonderland!

Thanks for the great blog. I can't help but check it everyday!

My perfect vacation would be with my boyfriend Dan and it would probably take about 6 months. What vacation could take so long? Ever since we read Bill Bryson's A Walk in the Woods ( http://www.amazon.com/Walk-Woods-Rediscovering-Appalachian-Official/dp/0767902521 ) we have wanted to hike the whole Appalachian Trail which extends from Springer Mountain Georgia to Katahdin Maine for a total of about 2,100+ miles!

My perfect vacation would be spending a week or two in Tuscany. I love the colors, textures, and sights the countryside has to offer, and I would LOVE to see it in person. I would bring my sister with me... since my fiance wouldn't appreciate all the beauty. Wow that sounded kinda corny. ...and I'd want us to travel it on our own... no tour buses. Hmm. Makes me want to watch "Under the Tuscan Sun" for the fifty miliionth time....

Two years ago, we took the kids to a resort outside of St. Louis. It was so fun to swim, play games, explore the local museums/zoo, and just have family time. I hope to do it again this summer. That magical family time was even better than cruising to Bermuda. So my ideal vacation would be spoiling my kids anywhere away from home so I don't have to think about work or email.

Have a great trip to Disneyland!!

My perfect vacation would be a whole family vacation (extended family included) to a kid friendly resort. Sand, ocean, and my parents there to watch --ahem, I mean, have quality time with the kids while my hubby and I have some quality time -- alone :-) I couldn't imagine going without my kids so this lets us all enjoy!

Right now I'm dreaming of somewhere warm and sunny. I think my first choice would be to take my kids to Hawaii. They've never been to a warm sunny beach where they could swim in the ocean. I know it would be the vacation of a lifetime. Thanks, K-Dub. I've got my eye on those precision files! *wink*

My perfect vacation.....I think it would be Disney World. Let me tell you why. My husband and I both had internships at Disney World in 2001, it's where we met. After we both returned to school that fall we dated long distance until we were married in 2003, after finishing school. We returned to Disney for our honeymoon and sadly haven't been back since. We would love to go and can't wait until we get back!
Thanks for the great goodies!

Anytime we all can be together, is a vacation for me!

This is not difficult for me at all... my husband and I have been together for 16 years (since I was 16) and we had a baby about 3 1/2 years ago so our life has changed drastically! With no family around us we arely have a lone time... together! I would love a vacation on a spa resort for just my hubby and I, great food, great wine, hot tub, spa treatments! That would rock like Phil Collins!

I never win anything, but I'll give it a shot :D. My perfect vacation would be anywhere with my husband and kids. I know, that doesn't really answer the question, but my husband deploys every other year for at least a year. Time with him and the kids would be wonderful, but he's always training so when he does have time off we seem to have to spend it with extended family. Someday, we'll have a real honest to goodness family vacation :D

January 21, 2009 @ 8:13 AM

Well, I love my kids but my perfect vacation would include just my husband and me! We'd go to Ireland and take in all the beauty. We'd relax some too and just enjoy being together in a beautiful place!

Wow! Look at all the responses...

I would go to a warm location, maybe somewhere in the caribbean, where it is warm but not hot (75-85 is perfect). The hotel would have individual cabanas and pools. There would be a nice sand beach with not too many people and fun waves to play in. I would take my husband and my daughter. There would many fun family oriented activities to partake in. They would also have some exclusive and fabo kids only activities so the parents could have some time to themselves. Ahhhhh...

My perfect vacation would be a trip to Europe...Switzerland, Germany & Austria to be specific. I was all ready to go in September but my dog was diagnosed with cancer a few days before we were to go. She passed away on the day we were to leave. We are thinking of rescheduling this spring.

My perfect Vacation would be...Costa Rica with my beautiful Family.
My hunny and I have 4 kids and we love to do stuff together. We all love animals too!
The wild life and the warm weather. (Well anything is warmer than a Canadian winter) We would love it!

Brenda:

Hmm...this is a toughie. After giving it some thought, I think my perfect vacation would be for my ENTIRE family (in-laws & out-laws included!) to board a private cruise ship. Our journey would give us time to relax, catch up, and generally enjoy each other's company. Our destination, however, would be somewhere that we could dig our hands in and help...perhaps somewhere where there's been a tragedy of weather, earthquake, tsunami, something like that. After a couple of weeks of helping out wherever we could (most in my family really enjoy that type of thing), we would climb back on board ship, and spend the journey home doing much of what we did on the initial trip, but this time taking time to talk about our experiences and perhaps plan next year's trip. Kinda crazy, I know. But if you're gonna dream, dream BIG, right?

Woohoo! What an awesome giveaway! My ideal vacation would be Hawaii. Sun, water, warmth...what else could you ask for? Oh...and I'd be there with my husband. :)

My perfect vacation... is one I've been wishing for a long time! It would be a cruise to anywhere with hubby. We married very young and didn't have money for a honeymoon, so we said we'd take a cruise on our first year anniversary. Well, the first year flew by fast, and we did not have money for one, so we said second year. The second year we faced financial hardship and had our first baby on the way, so we said five years. By time five years came we had two children, no money so we said ten years. Ten years came, we have four kids and no money. So now that we're sitting at the 13 year mark, I'm hoping for 20th anniversary! One of these days... I hope!

Joanne Peirson, Chatham, ON, Canada:

Right now my perfect vacation would be a hot destination away from this cold Canadian winter. It would be with my husband who has had to be away from home a lot for work and we miss each other greatly. Our destination would be one of our favourites - Cuba - we would try Cayo Coco this time.
I truly enjoy your website!

I'm very lucky to live on an island in the Mediteranean, so live is bright and sunny most of the time and we are near the sea. I would however LOVE to go to New York SHOPPING and visit one of your craft fairs.

My perfect vacation would be with my husband in Italy. Just the two of us relaxing and site seeing (and drinking the fab wine and eating the delicious food) and ...

Hope you enjoy Disneyland...

Cathy Green:

My dream vacation would start with a few days in Hawaii. I have been there before and I love it. Then we would fly to Australia, a place I've always wanted to go. After that we would go to Greece, then on to Italy. Then before returning home, we'd take a few days in England, Scotland and Ireland. I know it's lots of places, but you asked for our 'dream' vacation! Now I can't wait to go!

January 21, 2009 @ 8:19 AM

A warm cozy cabin with a blanket, handsome man, a stack of DVDs and books, no internet or cell phone! Oh how I wish!

We love to travel, so our perfect vacation is basically anywheree that we have never travelled before. For instance, I'd love to go to Alaska...Tahiti would be nice, too, though! Then again, I'm pretty happy going anywhere with my darling hubby and baby girl! And they always make great scrapbooks!

January 21, 2009 @ 8:20 AM

Perfect Vacation? That's easy. Fly fishing in Alaska. And this time I would bring my children. My husband and I went as a wedding gift 2o years ago and would love to go back again. The scenery, the sunsets, the salmon running wild, was spectacular. Long trip from Boston, MA, but well worth it. Bet you never did that Kristina. Thanks for the chance to win stuff. Love your blog!

I can honestly say that the best vacation for me would be a trip to Hawaii... My husband lived there for several years and I am so jealous. I hope one day!!! Also, in August of 06 our family made our first trip to Disneyland and we are hoping to take our 5 beautiful children to Disneyworld this year... So that would be an awesome vacation too.. :)

Mary Beth:

My perfect vacation would be with my husband and 3 children to the island of St. John. We would stay at the Westin there (all inclusive I think !?! -- don't have to cook!). We would rent a car to go to different parts of the island to snorkel, because the snorkeling on St. John is amazing! My husband and I have been to St. John before, but now that our children are old enough, I would love to be able to share it with them someday (right now we're too worried about saving for 3 college educations, so St. John will have to wait!)

January 21, 2009 @ 8:22 AM

Perfect vacation. hmmmm. Normally I'd say camping somewhere with a rushing stream nearby, but I think this time I'd say going to Disneyland and staying in a grand hotel. Only my oldest has ever been there and that's when she was 2. She's 21 now.

January 21, 2009 @ 8:22 AM

WOW!! Thank you...I want one of those filing kits!! Yum!

My ideal vacation would be to go somewhere that would have fun for everyone. Even just a motel with a large water area. Where we could all hang out together and relax. I would take my hubby, the three kids and my mom and dad.

Blantyre Malawi, which is in Central Africa...I'd take my hubby, who's never been to Africa, and my son. We'd visit my parents who don't get back to the states very often. That's about it...oh it would be nice to not have to do dishes... man I miss Africa...

btw thanks for the give aways! They are really super cool!

Wendy (songbirdwc):

We've had perfect vacations before... especially cruises (honeymoon...15th anniv...etc), but in this season of our lives we can't afford anything fancy...so our 30th anniversary next week will be very lowkey. What would I love? Somewhere warm (not hot) with lots of long walks and beautiful views, with my wonderful husband... a few choice outdoor dinners with beautiful breezes...

January 21, 2009 @ 8:25 AM

Jennifer R:

I have already gone on my ideal vacation. I went on my honeymoon to Walt Disney World in 2006 over Thanksgiving (we got married in August but didn't want to face the brutal August heat). We stayed at the Contemporary and were given a free upgrade to a tower room that faced Bay Lake and the room was just heaven. The whole trip was magical in every sense. Late night walks to the Magic Kingdom and walking on all the rides. Getting stuck in the Autopia cars going uphill because we were two grownups riding in the same car. Renting a tiny boat and racing around on Seven Seas Lagoon. Awesome awesome time.

But if I had to pick another one, it would be going back to Switzerland and having my husband go with me. I love it there.

Brandi:

I'm not sure where this perfect vacation spot is...somewhere similar to Northampton, MA. I love a small town atmosphere, unique clothing boutiques, paper crafting stores, warm-with a quiet beach near by and it would be with 2-3 of my closest friends.

January 21, 2009 @ 8:26 AM

First, going back to Anaheim, my hometown, would be the ultimate vacation but I would have to say that I have been itching really bad to go to Hawaii! I would want to go with just my husband but we would probably feel too bad and bring the kids with us. I would want to go surfing, snorkeling, see the volcanoes, and take a tour of all the places they have filmed my favorite show "Lost." Wish I was there now!

Humm, my perfect vacation is hopefully happening in 2010. I don't know about perfect, but I am pretty excited. We are having our first baby in a few months and will be going to Hawaii with another couple whom are our very good friends. Then we just found out a few weeks ago that they will have their first baby by then too - so we get to go with them and our newish babies - can't wait!!!

January 21, 2009 @ 8:27 AM

I think my perfect vacation would be traveling through India with my parents and children and husband - and visiting where our family comes from and showing the kids where their ancestors are from. I would love for my parents to show their grandchildren their favorite places when they were children - that would be such a special vacation :)

I love him lots, but a whole week not having to cook for him, watch the tv he wants to see, not able to scrap/card make/or what I want to do...this is a VACATION in my book!!! Chick flicks all week and comfort food galore!!Love your blog and your wonderful ideas- keep on!!

Carla:

My family had a vacation at a beach condo two years ago. We were there for one week and it was absolutely fabulous. Everyone was so relaxed. We had the option of going to the beach (footsteps away) or going to the pool. Our biggest concern everyday was to decide what we were eating for dinner. I can't wait to go back!

January 21, 2009 @ 8:34 AM

Perfect or most desired? Becuase they just happen to be different!

Perfect would be me and the hubs and the boy at the beach on Hilton Head. LOVE it there and want so badly to take my son to the beach for the first time.

BUT most desired would be a family vacaiton to China...I want to see all the sights and sounds of China.

Doris:

I would like to go back to Italy. We went last year and probably found the worst places to eat, including the meals on the tour. This time we would do our homework better and find some - or at least one - really great places to go. And I'd like to see the real statue of David, which we found out too late wasn't included.

I would love to mirror my honeymoon again with my husband. We went to Maui, Hawaii - it is the most beautiful place on earth!!! The sunsets, the warm water, the wonderful beaches...I could soak it up everyday of my life if I had the choice!!!!

A totally private beach on a tropical location where the water is so clear you can look down and see the ocean floor. I want dolphins to play with, and a coral reef to explore under water. I want all food and amenities to be presented in anticipation of my needs. I want a massage twice a day.

I don't want much, do I?!

Gosh, that's a hard one! But, although I love taking my kids places (especially places that they've never seen before), I would have to say my dream vacation would be just me and hubby going someplace romantic! With 5 kids, it's too easy to get in a rut and go through the motions of parenting without spending quality time together. We would both love to go to anyplace with warm sandy beaches!

This is my first time doing this and I am so excited!

My perfect vacation would be to a sunny destination with beautiful beaches. I hear Cancun is wonderful and of course the Bahamas.

I would go with my husband, Walter, of 20 years. We have two children (teenagers now) and we were never able to go on a vacation with just the two of us. But now, woo hoo, we can because they can take care of themselves!!

I love your website and your creativity is definitely a gift from God!

OHHHHHHHH that is so easy. The perfect vacation is Atlantis in the Bahamas with my whole family. The kids have a blast and my husband and I actually get to have a good time too. It is the perfect family vacation because everyone has something to do! And, the weather is perfect. Oh, just talking about it makes me want to hope on a plane RIGHT now!!!!!!!

That would be Caneel Bay, St. John. Beautiful beaches, clear, warm water (snorkel, snorkel), no telephones, TVs. With my husband.

Julia:

My perfect vacation? Hong Kong with the family for shopping & eating. And more shopping...and more eating. :)

But the perfect (most relaxing) vacation would have to be staying at home with tv shows, DVDs, and crafting supplies.

Perfect vacation...for my husband and I to take my best friend, Sandra,on a cruise in the Caribbean. We have been many times, but she has never had the opportunity to go. Seeing her enjoying the experience would be the ultimate for me.

My perfect vacation ... right now, I'd just love to be sitting on a beach somewhere warm with my hubby. It could be in Mexico, the Caribbean, or even Hawaii. As long as my hubby is with me, I don't care where we go!

I would love to go on vacation on a cruise (which I will be doing soon) with just my husband. Some quiet time and enjoying the water as we are cruising will be so nice (my oldest son will also be joining us). We are looking forward to our first cruise.

My "other" perfect vacation would be to Paris.

my perfect vacation I just took. We went to disneyland for thanksgiving for a week. It was something I have always wanted to do . To be at disneyland for the holidays with everything lit up was beautiful. we spent 4 days there and stayed in our trailer which was very convenient and also cost less because we could bring our own food and we had our own car intead of flying. It was a great vacation.

I would love to spent a couple of weeks in Southern CA. Maybe a week at one of the Disney resorts and parks, some time in San Diego (got to get an IKEA visit in of course) and lots of time eating ice cream on the beach!!

Hey Kristina!!

Look at you and all the awesome give-aways lately! You're just too sweet!

My perfect vacation would be to Ireland. I've always wanted to go... spend a week in a little cottage with no real place to go. Just sightsee and enjoy the fresh air, all the greenery, and of course spend quality time with my husband. I'd love to see his family's farm (mothers' side) and where his father grew up. How fun it would be.

Wow, this is easy! I would take my kids (2 teenagers and now a 21 year old) to DisneyLand! Although we moved to Northern California over 11 years ago, we have still have not made it to Southern California. The dream of going to Disneyland will happen hopefully next year!

Gwen,:

My DH gave me a gift of a trip to Disney World with my daughter! It was a wonderful twelve days of shopping, exploring, relaxing, swimming with dolphins, more shopping, going on rides, more shopping and more relaxing! In my DH's opinion, he was also on vacation...he was just at home! We would do it again...in a heartbeat!

My dream vacation would be to go back to Myrtle Beach with my husband and kids. It's such a fun relaxing place. We had a room with a view of the ocean and it was fabulous. We mini golfed and went to water parks and just relaxed and had fun on the beach together. Hope I win one of these fabulous prizes. Have fun at Disneyland.

Leah :

The perfect vacation right now would actually be disneyland. I have 3 princesses and the 4th on the way. My husband is graduating law school next month and our family has never been on a "vacation." My girls talk all the time about going to disneyland one day. I would love to go with them and go the whole nine yards. Disneyland hotel, all week at the park, meet all the characters, ride the rides and just spend some much needed time together as a family. That would be the perfect vacation!

My perfect vacation is always on a beach. But I would love to see Bali. And the person I would most like to be with on the beach in Bali, is my sweet husband who has taken care of me and loved me for the last 30+ years. He would love to be someplace new taking pictures and so deserves it.

January 21, 2009 @ 9:06 AM

What a great question! My favorite vacation would be to the Greek Isles. I took an afternoon cruise once out of Athens and visited 3 islands. Gorgeous beyond words. It's been 9 years and I'm still hoping to go back. The food, the natural beauty, beautiful architecture, and the kind and generous people! Someday I WILL go back!

Janice:

Hi Kristina: I think my perfect vacation would be to go with my husband to New Zealand. There are several movies, like the Lord of the Rings trilogy, that have been filmed in New Zealand, and it looks just gorgeous. I would want to go some place that looks very different from where I live (Texas). Thanks for the great give-aways, and have a great time at Disneyland!

Kristen:

Oh what would be my perfect vacation you ask? Well these days everything is always rush, go, take this one here and that one there. So my perfect vacation would be going to Hawaii for 2 weeks. I would take my husband for a fun-filled, relaxing time. I think it is important to reconnect and have that spark turn back into a flame with your mate when everyday things get in the way. That would be my perfect vacation.

I would be on a beach maybe Hawaii or something. I love water, sand and of course the sun. I don't know, if someone should be with me. For now I want to go alone. Just sit there and thinking about my life, swimming and such stuff.

Thank you for doing giveaways. It's great.

My perfect vacation would be to Italy's Tuscany region with my DH. He speaks Italian so there wouldn't be too many problems communicating and getting around (hopefully). Great company, great food, great scenery -- perfect!

January 21, 2009 @ 9:09 AM

A perfect vacation is one with my loved ones, discovering a new part of the world and just enjoying each other's company! Right now I'm really curious about Barcelona and would love to go there this summer with my sweetie and our little girl! :o)

hmmmm... let me set the mood.. a nice pina cola drink with the warm rays of Dominican Republic warming me up as I lay in a beach chair watching the waves crashing into the sand making me forgot about all my woes back in N.Y. then I turn and look and see my Hubby and I say is it time for our massages yet. AHHHHH BLISS.. (can you tell I daydream allot! LOL) YOU ROCK Girl thank you for being so amazing to us always. Enjoy your trip and say hi to Mickey for me!

January 21, 2009 @ 9:14 AM

My perfect vacation would be touring Europe. I would want to bring my hubby, my 8 month old son, and a babysitter. The babysitter because I would miss my son if we left him too long and I wouldn't be able to enjoy the trip, but also so that my husband and I could do couple outings as desired.

I would take a vacation to Italy with my three best friends from college. We used to do everything together and often talked about places we would visit after we graduated. Italy has always been at the top of the list. Its been forever since we finished college so this trip is long overdue.

January 21, 2009 @ 9:17 AM

I have SO many different perfect vacation ideas...I guess if I have to choose just one, I would choose to go to Cancun with my little family and bring along my parents and brothers. Actually anywhere warm and sunny with a beach will do, I can't take this inversion in SLC anymore!

January 21, 2009 @ 9:17 AM

My perfect vacation would be at some sunny beach with two of my best friends. :)
This will, hopefully, be carried out next year!

I have always thought the perfect vacation with be with my family traveling for a month around Europe with only what we could carry in a backpack. I think it would be fun and exciting. I have also always wished I could take the boys to a third world country for a month to experience life through someone else's shoes. That would not be so much of a relaxing vacation but an eye opener to how blessed we really are to live in the US.

January 21, 2009 @ 9:19 AM

Kathy:

:) I love to travel with family and friends anywhere. Sometimes "road trips" can be so much fun. One place in the U.S. that I want to visit is Mount Rushmore and the Black Hills. I've been to Europe twice and I can't wait to return. My college roommates and I are planning a trip to Paris to celebrate a milestone birthday for all of us in 2010. Thanks for all your inspiration!

January 21, 2009 @ 9:19 AM

Have fun in Disneyland :)

Let's see... perfect vacation.

I think that would have to be in Japan with my hubby eating and trying EVERYTHING (we're really adventurous), walking everywhere and shopping. Oh yeah and can't forget about the hotels too. I don't know what it is about hotels but I love staying at them. I think it's the concept that you can completely trash the room, leave and when you come back, it's back in perfect order. I can't do that at home cuz I'm the one that has to clean it!

January 21, 2009 @ 9:19 AM

Stephanie Henkle:

Hmmmm... perfect vacation. Probably back to Costa Rica to work with the Loggerhead Sea Turtles. A coworker of mine just returned from his trip and he had a blast. He said the turtles were incredible and they got to do some nest rescues! I think that would be incredible! Great giveaways!

Have a great trip!

January 21, 2009 @ 9:20 AM

How fun! You get to go to Disneyland?? I'm very envious right now...

My dream vacation would be to go on a cruise in the Mediterranean with my husband. We went on a cruise for our honeymoon and I would love the chance to take another one. It would be fantastic to leave the kids for a week and just be with my soulmate!

January 21, 2009 @ 9:20 AM

I would love to go to Thailand. Many of my friends have been and shown incredible photos. It would be great to have a romantic vaca with my hubby, but I would also like to show my son the world. Thanks for the chance! :o)

I'd love to go so many places, but I think a couple of weeks in Hawaii with just my husband (and the boys at my parent's!) would be perfect!

Lissa:

My dream vacation is Costa Rica!!!

I would take my husband and I'd love to spend one day doing a canopy tour, another day doing a bike tour, and another day touring the volcanos.

The kicker is everyday in between each of those tours - we'd just lounge on the beach to recover while sipping on Mojitos. (Okay, not really a Costa Rican drink but still my FAVORITE :-D)

My perfect vacation would be with my Dad, he is so fun to hang with. Being from Western Canada we don't get any NASCAR up here so being a NASCAR enthusiest that would be my perfect vacation. I have been to three tracks already; Talladega, Texas, and Darlington. I would love to take my Dad and head down to Pocono, and check out the race and all the festivities that go with it and then maybe the Pocono mountains and Falling Water (Frank Lyod Wrights house on the side of the waterfall). Wow that would be fun.

Perfect vacation? On a beach, with the hubby and maybe another couple, doing absolutely nothing for a week. We did this last summer, and it was HEAVEN!!!

My dream vacation would be with my husband in Hawaii, and have the Honeymoon we never had. We were married right out of high school, already had our daughter and couldn't afford a honeymoon. Our kids go every where with us, but this one I would like for just him and I. Hawaii is beautiful and it just seems so romantic!

January 21, 2009 @ 9:26 AM
437
 

well, i dont have a significant other so i'd say a perfect vacation would be by myself. i know that sounds selfish but it's true. i'd have to answer to no one the entire time. i'd relax and have time to think and no worry about my family and i'd do whatever i'd like to do, even if that meant staying in and sleeping.
i'd go somewhere cool and dry-i hate hot and humid climates. somewhere where i can count on a couple rainy days and some sunshiny ones for lots of photo taking.

have fun and take care!!

Wow! How awesome are your giveaways!!

My perfect vacation has always been to spend time in the Bahamas, particularly the Atlantis Hotel. I love that the hotel caters to the whole family.. the boyfriend, the kids and I can all enjoy a spectacular getaway. Hopefully that dream will come true soon, just waiting until our daughter gets a bit older!

Martha Ringhauser:

The perfect vacation would be in Kentucky because I have been to all the states around it, but not to Kentucky, and because it is sort of central to the family and friends I want to spend time with.

Angela Butler:

Ok. So my favorite vacation would be in the Maldives with my best friends and their families on the beach playing with the kiddies. Or better yet when I get married my honeymoon in Dubai would be awesome. If I had to go somewhere alone it would be to Paris to go shopping. Yes.

Ngaire in the UK:

My perfect vacation would start with someone else packing my bags (an my husband and 2 kids too), me losing 2 stone and then heading off to a luxury beach resort in a oh so glamourous bikini where where is sun and blue sky every day and cocktails delivered to me poolside!

Oh just to really make it a dream holiday; no-one gets sick, bitten by bugs or complains once that they are bored.

Hmmm someone wake me up as I dreamin!

Hi Kristina,
Well..after enduring the last week with below zero actual temperatures and wind chills I don't even want to think about, I think my perfect vacation would be to someplace warm where there would be "shorts-wearing, flipflop-walking" weather somewhere in this great country of ours. I'd love to be with my husband, son, daughter and my little sweet granddaughter!!

Laura:

Great giveaway, Kristina!! It is hard to pick a perfect vacation b/c there are so many places I want to go!! I would definitely go w/ my boyfriend... I think the south of France or Italy. Somewhere where we could lie on the beach and relaz but also see history!

January 21, 2009 @ 9:34 AM
450
 

Hmmm, what would my perfect vacation be? That's a good question because it's been a while since I've even gone anywhere! So sad, LOL.

Anyway, I lived in Australia when I was younger, and would LOVE to take a trip back there with my husband and daughter (she's only three and a half now, so it's probably too soon at this point), and my parents and younger brother. It would be so awesome to take that trip down memory lane with them! To go by our old house, my old school, the old stompin' ground. Too fun. :)

I want to go with you! My favorite dream vacation is going to Disney with my family. It doesn't matter if it's Disneyland or Disney World. We've been both but we absolutely love our time there. When my husband retires (forever from now) our dream is to move to disney, work and vacation every day! LOL

Hi Kristina,
Well..after enduring below-zero actual temperatures and wind chills I don't even want to think about last week, I think my perfect vacation would be a place that has "shorts-wearing,flipflop-walking" weather somehere in this great country of ours. I'd want to be there with my husband, son, daughter and sweet little granddaughter!!

SasSa:

The perfect vacation for me would be my first real vacation to a country outside my own. Preferably Thailand. A sunny beach, turqoise water, warm weather, lots of shopping and fun surprices(not spoiled with surpices so that´s a wish what won´t come true :)). Would like to take my fiancé and our son and maybe get married on a beautiful beach at sunset.

Wish you the best of times at Disneyland!!
Hugs SasSa

A perfect vacation to me would be somewhere warm (NOT too hot!) that my whole family would enjoy. I'm thinking a cruise would suit! Oh... and free! Have fun at Disney!

Well any "vacation" would be a dream at this point!! But if it could be anything I would go someplace warm with a beach with my husband and kids.

Gabby:

My perfect vacation would be a trip to Japan, probably with a main stay in Tokyo, but definitely visiting other parts. And I'd love to climb Mt. Fuji, or at least some of it. I hear the view from the top as the sun is rising is breathtaking. And, since I was "in the neighborhood" I would take a side trip to Hong Kong. I'd love to have at least 3 weeks in Asia. But I'd need 4 weeks of vacation time -- one week to relax back at home and do all that laundry! ^_^

Italia! That would be perfect, with my husband and my son. Eating lots of pasta and drinking wine, I can see me in a gondola in Venice...Now let my get back to reality...:O(

My perfect vacation would be on a warm sunny beach during the day. NO phones (i'll bring my laptop, email me if you want to get in touch with me), listening to an audiobook on my iPod. At night, going to dinner with my husband at an outdoor restaurant. Cocktails and slow dancing to the song we danced to at our wedding.

My perfect vaca would include my husband, my dog, and a lovely beach--one not so packed with people to the point you can't enjoy it. No set plans, just enjoying the calm of the ocean and lack of work it would involve :)

Oh, that's easy!! Anywhere with my family...DH, DD, Mom and Dad. The 5 of us vacation often. We spend 1 week in the summer at a condo on Catalina Island and 5 days after Christmas in Palm Springs, CA every year. And Disneyland is DD and my fave mini-vacation day! Living in So Cal, we have passes and go about once a month (we were just there yesterday! FYI, Kristina...Haunted Mansion, Small World are closed right now for refurbishment :-( ) thanks! and have a great time~

What great prizes! Any of the three would be terrific to win. Thanks so much for offering them. My favorite vacation place would include, of course, my husband and be on a cruise to anywhere. I love cruising! It's so relaxing, and who doesn't love being pampered? Have a great time at Disney.

Since moving to the East Coast of Canada 9 years ago, I really miss my girlfriends from the West Coast! my perfect vacation would be to meet in New Orleans for a girls weekend! No kids, no hubbies, just us, cocktails, great clothes and smokin' hot hair LOL! We would catch up with each other's lives, dance on bourbon street, laugh till the sun comes up. Then we would sleep by the pool and regain our strength to do it all again the next night! oh, and go to a fortune teller also, it is New Orleans, after all.

We do meet once a year, but never with so much pomp and circumstance! hey, a girl can dream...

Michele Williams:

My perfect vacation??? I think that I would like to stay at the resort in the movie Americas Sweethearts, with my husband, and the rest of our extended family, beautiful scenery, no pressure to go all over sightseeing, just hang by the pool, play a little golf, eat some fattening food, just hang out, although there are a ton of places I would love to see, I think it would be a nice change to just hang out and RELAX instead of spending an entire vaca running all over trying to squeeze it all in!

Wowza! This is some awesome blog candy girl! Thanks so much for the chance to win!

I would have to say that my dream vacation would have to be a rerun of my honeymoon with my hubby! We had such an amazing time and I would love to do the same thing all over again! We went to the Dominican Republic and stayed at an all-inclusive resort! It was fabulous! :D

January 21, 2009 @ 9:57 AM

Cute! Some great vacations out there!

Mine, well, is a wild adventure of anything that requires me to explore! Send me on a National Geographic Adventure, to Ireland to do genealogy research, or even to Africa to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro! What about Argentina to see the penguins, or digging in Bahrain, or giving supplies to remote cultures in any 3rd world country!

Who would I take...Kelly! My girl Kelly is up for anything & can rough it like the best of us & know exactly how to enjoy the moment...as long as it comes with a small shot of something stout! LOL!

My perfect vacation would be going to the Bahamas, staying at a Sandals resort with a bunch of friends. We could have our own "alone time" as a couple but have people to eat with and explore the island with. We went to Jamaica and did this and it was a blast!!

January 21, 2009 @ 9:58 AM

My ultimate vacation would be to go to Hawaii with my family, including my mom or some other babysitter. That way my husband and I could enjoy some great times on the beach etc. with just us, and still get to do fun things with our kids.

My perfect vacation would be drifting down the river Seine in Paris with my husband....It would have to be in the evening so when we floated by the Eiffel Tower it would have that glorious glow...We would be sipping a lovely glass of French bubbly and just be Relaxed!.....that would be a dream come true!

Hi there,

Since you didn't specify lenght of time. I will way I will start with Egipt,Japan,China,Grace. all these for their pyramids, ruins and spectacular antique places to learn more about their history. then continue to Paris, France, Spain, for places and shopping ( love cloths).Then , continue with a cruise to the caribean to get a good tan and enjoy the earm weather. I will go with my family and my parents.

Now, Because I have to go back to reality ( not a lot of money to do the trip of my life).
I will like to go to Cancun or Puerto Rico with my family and parents.
Why do I chose my family?
Beacuse I want my kids to get to places that they will remember in teh future, even when I am gone.
why my parents?
beacause when I was young they sacrifice to get us to direnet places each year, and I love the memories.

My perfect vacation would be to Japan with my husband and my mom. My mom is Japanese, and I've been to Japan with her a few times, but my husband (as of 2007) has never been and I'd love for him to see what it's like. That would be amazing. Someday, someday!

Thanks for the chance to play!

My perfect vacation would be to Italy... and it would go something like Under the Tuscan Sun... minus the "player" Italian guy she met. LOL. I'd love to vacation there, buy a house, fix it up, and find Prince Charming...

My perfect/dream vacation would be to Florence, Italy with probably a husband (if I had one), so at this point whoever wanted to take me would be fine. HOWEVER, I did just go to Disneyworld for the first time last fall and must say it really is "the happiest place on earth" so going back would also be a perfect vacation!

What my perfect vacation would look like??
Mmm... a difficult question.
I think it would be a vacation with my husband and children. On a nice camping some where near the beach where the children could have a lot of fun. When my children are happy I would be happy.

January 21, 2009 @ 10:08 AM

One of my favorite places in the world is Maui! I want to go back there for about 2 weeks. We haven't been there in almost 2 years. It would be me and my 2 Sweeties (husband and son).

One day we would like to go to New Zealand and Australia.

January 21, 2009 @ 10:10 AM

My perfect vacation would be somewhere tropical with just the hubby! Disneyland with my kids is a close second though. Thanks for the chance at a give away. They are great ones too!

If you are coming to Disneyland, does that mean you will be at CHA too???

That is not so difficult. I would love to go back to Tucson AZ for my vacation together with husband and kids. We lived there for a year. We loved our stay there and made lots of friends. Simone had a great year in school but my son Tom can't remember anything from that time because he was too young. It would be fun to show him around and take him to the Desert Museum, Old Tucson or Sabino Canyon.

I really like to be home on my vacation, catching up with everything fun that I have too little time to do otherwise (scrapping, reading etc). But I think my perfect vacation would be to go to the States, visiting all my friends since my exchangestudent-year and go shopping for Stampin'Up!-products since they're not available in Sweden.

I love Hawaii! I've been to 2 of the islands but would love to go to Maui with my husband and stay for 2 weeks. The Hawaiian culture is so relaxed and different from the rest of the US. The flowers are beautiful and create a wonderful aroma, love the open air resorts, hotels, restaurants and of course the beach.

January 21, 2009 @ 10:14 AM

Wow, these are some really awesome prizes. You are the best!
For my fave vacation it would have to be going to Hawaii. We had to cancel last minute last year due to someone dying in my aunt's family..that is who we were going with. So I was teased and want to go so bad. I want to be wit my husband of course. We had kids really young and we have never gone travelling. I would love to sit on the beach with him for a week or two and just spend time together reconnecting with no kids running around. :)

There are tons of places that I would like to visit--the world is so big! But as of today, because it's so cold here in chi-town, my dream vacation is to Fiji and the Cook Islands with my husband. Staying in one of those cabanas over the water. Sun, Sand, clear water--that's paradise.

Hawaii. I've never been there and we've discussed going before, but it never happened. I don't look good in a bathing suit, but I would still have fun! When we do decide to go, we will be taking our daughter who is currently 19 months old. Believe it or not, we have a great time with her.

Debbie Lucero:

I think we had the perfect vacation last year. Last July, we rented 2 "deluxe" cabins at a KOA in Yellowstone. Actually there was nothing deluxe about them but since it had a shower and a flushing toilet that made me happy. The vacation crew was me, my hubby, 4 kids and both sets of grandparents. Having the grandparents along was very special and I think my kids will cherish that vacation for the rest of their lives. So basically we relaxed by the campfire everynight, played games at the picnic table, and ate simple crockpot meals so that we could tour the park during the day. I think it was one of our cheaper vactions but, by far, the most relaxing. To me a good vacation, isn't about fancy meals or touring a foreign land but just hanging with the people you love most in America's own backyard.

My favorite vacation would be anywhere I can visit with my family. I have lived too far away from them for too long. Maybe a cruise together! That would be fun.

Jolene:

Southwestern Ontario is affectionately called the banana belt,because its supposed to be warmer in winter here than most of the rest of Canada. But I really get excited when going far enough south in the US to see palm trees. That is when I know I'm going in the right direction in winter, SOUTH. My husband and I have been to Mexico, and didn't want to leave. The ocean breezes, sand and palm trees are my favaourite wherever they are.
I've learned so much from your blog and have found other blogs that have made me a constant student.
thank you for inspiration and guidance.

Vivian:

My perfect vacation would be to travel all across the United States, then up into Canada to meet some of my online stamping friends. Of course all along the way, I would stop at all the eating places I have seen on Diners Drive-Ins and Dives, and all the stamping places I have read about. This trip would hopefully be with my hubby, but I don't think he would agree to this "vacation" at all.

I took my perfect vacation last August. I don't think I could top it- My husband (then fiance) and I went to Tahiti, Bora Bora and Moorea. We stayed in an over water bungalow, fed stingrays, snorkeled, swam with sharks... paradise!!

Hmm, my perfect vacation? I would love to visit Greece, I love all the pictures of the sparkling waters and the bright white homes stacked against the mountainside! If that didn't work, show me a white sandy beach with warm ocean and a few palm trees-that would be pretty perfect too!

My perfect vacation would be a trip to Italy...something involving a cruise, too! My husband could go, too! He was station in Italy while he was in the Navy (before we met) & talks about how much there is to see & do there. It's on my bucket list.

Have fun at Disney!

Jinny:

On my perfect vacation, you would find me lounging in the summer sun on a warm, sandy beach, listening to the swoosh of the waves and my kiddos squealing as they're being chased by their daddy. We'd fly kites, eat picnic lunches, hunt for sand dollars, and simply relish in the joy of one another's company, with no dishes to clean, laundry to wash, beds to make, school papers to complete, emails to catch up on, floors to polish, toilets to scrub, etc., etc., etc.

My dream vacation would be in Tuscany, Italy at a villa surrounded by vineyards and excellent Italian cuisine, summer time. Someday, somehow, me and my hubby will experience such an awesome vacation! I'd love to ride bikes in town and be totally carefree!

I live in Alaska so another place I would like to go (in our state) would be Katmai National Park to see the brown bears!

Pam Davis:

My perfect vacation would also be with my family in a big old farm house with lots of rooms for everyone. Playing games, eating yummy homemade foods (that someone else made, of course), snug inside beside a roaring fire. Eating, sleeping, playing whenever I wanted making lots of lasting memories.

Our perfect and favorite vacations are the weeks we spent at Newport Beach CA. I love exploring the ocean with my family and the relaxation that comes from being away from the day-to-day schedules and stress.

Since my husband I live in a large city, finding a quiet get-away is an ideal vacation spot for us. I would take my husband because I would want to thank him for all the kind things he does for me and for being a such a fun person.

Bianca:

For me the perfect vacation would be to Disney World with my mom, my four sisters, and my three nephews. Of course my hubby too and my brother in laws but dont know that they would appreciate it as much as we would. My sisters and I am grew up on Disney and to this day we randomly bust out singing Disney songs and lines from movies, especially in tense or awkward moments. None of us have ever been and we are still hoping that one day we could all afford to go together...That hands down would be the perfect family vacation.

January 21, 2009 @ 10:33 AM

I am spending perfect vacationes twice a year.
In winter we (my husband and I) go to Tenerife for two or three weeks to our sharetime apartment. We are resting, having sun, playing outside games with other guests and meet finnish and foreign friends, we've got there. Quite often we have one or more grandchildren with us.
In summer the perfect vacation we spend in our summerhome, swimming, gardening, picking up berries and mushrooms, fishing, resting and taking care of grandchildren. Sometimes just the two of us, sometimes with children and their families and my mother (15 people), then some of us are camping on the yard.

My perfect vacation isn't so much who I'm with or where I am. It's all about leaving the stress and drama at home. Having FUN is what it's all about. No worries about any place to be at a certain time - just make it up as we go along!

January 21, 2009 @ 10:40 AM

A perfect vacation for me would be camping for a week @ Joseph P Taylor State Park in Olema, CA (Marin Co.) in the redwoods... Tomales Bay and Point Reyes Station is just a short drive away & they have the best oysters in the world there. Across the bay is Inverness, home to Manka's restaurant... super yum! I went there a lot when I lived in the SF Bay area, it's my favorite place in the whole world! I hope to take my husband and son there one day!

Have fun on your trip!

On my dream vacation, I would love to go to the islands where the tsunami hit. It's been awhile since then and I am sure that the islands have gotten back up and running. I would go with my daughter as she is living in Thailand now and knows all the ins and outs of the area. I went once before but visited the mainland and Northern Thailand. Saw the great temples, visited some of the northern villages and now I want to see those beautiful blue beaches.

My perfect vacation would be to go to the mountains and stay for a week in a spacious cabin with a beautiful view and a large fireplace, have it gently snow half the time so I can sit by the window and watch it while sipping hot chocolate, and go hiking when it wasn't snowing. No television, no internet, no noise except for the beautiful sounds of nature. Mmmmmmm...

My perfect vacation would be a few days of wine tasting with my husband in California wine country. I can't think of anything more romantic or relaxing. We've never been out there, but we do frequently visit the Finger Lakes wine country of NY State.

My ultimate vacation would be anywhere with my husband alone..lol. We're military and we have 2 kids.. and with his work schedule he is always working or gone for months at a time and what little time he has we spend it as a family.. But I would really love to be able to go somewhere alone with him to reconnect.

I'm going to be 100% honest here...I'd go somewhere that I will be totally alone, some place warm, that no one knows me and somewhere that's far away from other people. My kids still live with me, and now my granddaughter. I'd like to crop and read and eat what I want, lol. Don't I sound like a big baby?

Abby V:

Vacation...what's that? With six kids--most under the age of 10, my work doesn't end! LOL But, my dream family vacation would be to spend two weeks in a rented house/condo right by the beach; where all we had to do was open the door and the beach is right there. Now, if it was a vacation just for me and the husband...that's tricky too. I would love to go Italy or Greece and do the tourist thing with him; but I know he would prefer to visit China, Hong Kong or Japan and do the "tourist" thing there. Either way would be perfect for me--as long as I'm with him!

January 21, 2009 @ 11:29 AM
605
 

Right now my perfect vacation would be a week away from work, no marking no lecture preparation and a bath with loads of candles. I can't be bothered to go anywhere, I would just love to potter in my own home for a week with nothing to do that I didn't want to. Oh and my other half would be with me with nothing to do either:)

A vacation now that something that does not happen much around my home. See we take care of a guy who lives with us who has celberal palsy and is wheelchair bound so if we go somewhere he normally goes to. He not a bad guy just difficult to manage sometimes. My dream vacation would be just me and the hubby no responsbilites in a nice hotel, room service, nice quite music, great view. Just relaxing weather that is reading, scrapbooking or just vegging. It could be anywhere even just up the road. Just some downtime would be nice.

c5eHi Kristina! Thanks for giving away such great loot!

Perfect vacation right now would be to visit New Zealand for a couple weeks - my hubby is from there and his mom hasn't seen her one year old granddaughter yet! So it would be nice for them to meet and for me to stock up on the NZ goodies I've missed (marmite and chocolate cookies!) and see some old friends.

NicoleSKM:

Good question! Makes me want to escape to someplace dreamy. I want to go to New Zealand and take my husband and daughters. Get a VW Bus and road trip and camp with them. We've done a lot of traveling as a family and usually stay in nice condos but getting back to the basics and sharing it with our kids, sounds like a fun retreat!

Any place warm, sunny, and far away from cell phone towers would be ideal compared to this icy, snowy, the-high-is-in-the-teens weather we've been having here in the Northeast would be ideal! I've never been to the Caribbean so somewhere on an island with my husband would be awesome right now. Have fun in Disneyland!!

January 21, 2009 @ 11:45 AM

My perfect vacation would be an all inclusive vacation somewhere in the tropics. I say all inclusive so this way I don't have to worry about any expenses except for tips and souvenirs.
I would take for sure my DH for a romantic getaway, but then I would miss my 2 boys and would want them along too.
This is funny because I was just looking and dreaming at destinations recently because of the cold weather here in the midwest.

I would love to go to the Domincan Republic and stay on a private beach. I would love to go with my husband and leave all the kiddos at home. We never had a real honey moon and didn't even get to celebrate med school graduation. We are need of a break and I hope it comes soon. I would also love to take my family to disney world. The girls are at the princess mania stage and my husband has never done disney. I hope to do both of these someday, sooner than later. Thanks for your inspiration. The girls and I love your blog and are faithful readers and stampers.

Becs Attwood:

My perfect vacation would be to go to some sort of luxury resort where they do everything for you and take all my craft supplies so I could just concentrate on creating for a fixed period of time without worrying about housework or preparing meals. No specific venue...just somewhere peaceful with some nice scenery. And I would take as many of my crafty friends as possible so we could create together & inspire each other.

second - my IDEAL vacation would be driving out west (i'm from the midwest, with our corn fields =) to take in the beautiful scenery along the way and staying somewhere in the mountains - Idaho or maybe Washington state. I was out there with some friends about 7 years ago and would LOVE to take my husband out there. He's never been and it's SOOO beautiful!

My perfect vacation would be something like the one in Last Holiday, the movie starring Queen Latifah! She stays in Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic at the Grand Pupp Hotel. It is beautiful and amazing and that country is sooooo romantic! I would like to go with my husband for several weeks. Of course an unlimited budget is required. But we're dreaming here, right?

My perfect vacation would be a summer-long stay in Italy; visiting little towns found along quiet country roads; learning to make authentic Italian food from regular home cooks; taking countless photographs of rolling, green hills and valleys; and immersing myself in a country that has fascinated me for as long as I can remember. Truth be told it probably won't be this romantic or idealic, but you have to dream, right? :-)

HI Kristina,

these days the perfect vacation would be to stay at a beach house, so the kids can play in the surf and sand. When they're older, a trip to our "Disneyland" area here in AUS - Seaworld, Dreamworld and Wet and Wild, and in days gone by travelling around Europe with my husband to be - driving holiday through Ireland and Scotland, visiting all the major art galleries of Europe.

Enjoy yours and great giveaway!

My perfect vacation would be a trip to Italy with my hubby. I am 50% Italian and have always wanted to go and visit Venice, Rome, and go out into the countryside and visit with the locals and learn all about the culture. I think it would be romantic, relaxing, and educational. Also, a great opportunity to learn more about my family history.

What a great giveaway! I sooooooo NEED that scallop punch!!

My favorite vacation? I would have to say a cruise with my husband. We *heart* cruises and were even married on a cruise ship! I'm not picky about where, but would love an Alaskan cruise and I dream of going to Italy and New Zealand as well. When my girls are older, maybe can do the Disney cruise :)

My perfect vacation would be a summer long road trip through central and south america with my wife. Pre-kids we use to take a number of roadtrips together and those were some great memories. And having both lived in latin america before it'd be great to visit all those unique countries and their beauty while speaking another language. True adventure :)

Best vacay ever, would include my DH and 2 kids. I love Disneyland or Disneyworld, not picky. Weather needs to be low to mid 20*C and a gentle breeze. My kids are not having melt downs or begging for stuff. We are going on rides and having snacks and all is well with the world. I love rollercoasters, but my kids are to little, so in this fantasy world, the kids are sitting on a bench all demure-like waiting for daddy and me to finish our ride.

January 21, 2009 @ 1:36 PM

My perfect vacation would be in Hawaii. It seems like such a beautiful place to visit! I guess I would go with my sister because we travel alike and we like the same activities, and she's great company!

I really wish I could have achieved the SU! incentive trip, but I was nowhere near, unfortunately.

Have a great week!

We never thought we'd go to Hawaii and we dream of going back to celebrate our anniversary. Perfectly relaxing - everyone needs to experience it!

Love it!! I would love to go to Europe with my husband because he's never been there. I have family in Germany and Paris and a friend in Italy so I'd love to go there! My friends and I are all turning 30 this year so we're trying to come up with a "kid-free" vacation. There are just so many options! Thanks so much, Kristina! You rock the papercrafting world! :)

My dream vacation is a trip to Hawaii with my hubby to relive our honeymoon. When we were there almost 9 years ago, we were so spontaneous. I feel like we are totally different people now that we have kids. I guess that is what happens when you become a parent. We are hoping to go back there and relive those times on our 10 year anniversary!

Kathy Mc:

Not much on International travel, but my husband and I would love to drive across the United States to see all the wonderful places it has to offer. Would also like to take my sister and brother-in-law to Graceland as she has been a HUGE Elvis fan for years and always wanted to go there even though she isn't big on traveling. Thanks for the opportunity to win your great give-aways!

adelina:

Wow! Thanks for the chance at this great stuff. My ideal vacation would be a private resort that had stuff for kids in a sunny place. It has to be an all-inclusive resort with water close. My little one loves to swim!

January 21, 2009 @ 1:56 PM
732
 

Wow Kristina, you are so generous!

My perfect holiday would be in a Sunny destination (Florida is great) with my hubby and with nothing to do but relax, read, walk on the beach! I'd love to go to Hawaii, but it so far (to many planes...)

Have fun at Disney!

Hey Kristina! My dream vacation would be to go with my best friend Aleisha to Europe. We would go visit our friend Angie in Germany and all three of us would travel all over Europe by train. We would go to France and Italy and Germany and Spain.. Everywhere we could and have a blast! :) I hope to go do that someday before I get too bogged down with responsibilities that I can't go.. Thanks for the great topic! Makes me daydream and remember my goals for the future.:D

Sue S.:

HI Kristine, love your blog and all your projects...I want tobe just like you when I grow up, except I'm already older than you!
Anyway, my dream vacation would be to take my daughter with my husband and I to Grand Turk Island where I actually met my husband while on a scuba diving trip. At that time it was comfortably developed, but not crazily commercialized. In fact there were only 5 restaurants to choose from, and at one, the chef would actually give you cooking lessons during the day if you wanted. It was a wonderful time and great diving and snorkeling....sigh, that would be my dream vacation! There just had a mini vacation without leaving the house!
Thanks for the giveaways, have a great day!

Pedita Hall:

We are spoiled by lots of travel, but for work - sounds exotic, but not a holiday! So I would love to go somewhere to escape for a week with my husband near a quiet beach, with a balcony and a view of the sunset. (Good food and wine essential too!!)

Enjoy your trip. There is a kid in a all of us!

Easy. Hawaii; again. With my husband and two sons. Minus the cell phones & laptops. Just US, not a care in the world. No financial stress, no extended family drama! Gee, wouldn't that be GRAND?!

January 21, 2009 @ 2:07 PM
743
 

Hope you have fun at Disney!

My perfect vacation would first be kidless! (I love them to death but this is a vacation right!) I would love to go to a cabin in the woods, after a big snowstorm. I would go with the love of my life, my husband, and there would have to be a nice fire in the fireplace, a big comfy blanket and lots of hot chocolate and marshmallows for roasting.

What wonderful prizes, thanks for the chance of winning! My perfect holiday would be to Bora Bora, you know that place at the end of the Triple XXX movie. Now that would be just perfect and I would only take my husband!

Erica Munroe:

Right now the only vaction I can think of is the future one I hope to be planning for my sister's wedding. She has always wanted to get married on this certian beach in Mexico. I would love it if our family can get together to celabrate w/ her. She has always thought she would just elope, just her daughter and hubby to be, but our parents are having some petty serious health scares this year. So now we she really wants to have the family w/ her. There is no date set yet so one day I can't wait to stand on the warm sandy beach, with all my family together as we watch A wedding!

January 21, 2009 @ 2:11 PM

I would totally hit the United Kingdom with my husband. We would see it ALL so it would take a couple months, I'm sure. LOL! ah dreams...!
A very close second would be us taking our kids to Disneyland.
Thanks!

Rieca:

My perfect holiday would be to go to a small island with my family, and my best friends family. Have a big beach house and just spend a week hanging out on the beach doing a whole lot of playing in the sun.
Of course the house would come with a nanny and a chef, and a presonal trainer?
OK thanks for the mo to dream, and the op to win!

My perfect vacation would be just here in Holland.
I really want to go back to Duinrell at Wassenaar together with my love and little girls!!
We spend our very first vacation over there when I was pregnant with our younghest little girl.
Our oldest had the most wonderfull time of her life over there and so did we.

my perfect vacation would be.... CHA next week. Ok, my dream vacation is actually a deserted island with DH, no interuptions, no distraction and lots of sun, but since I'm bumming that I won't be at CHA its the first thing that actually came to mind.

My favorite vacation to go on would
be with my family to Hawaii.
This would be with my husband, Paul,
Ds, Ryan, Becky and Robyn (our grandaughter)
and our daughter Sarah age 17.

We have never gone on a vacation in our entire
married life.
I think it would be so wonderful to be all
together and seeing this beautiful place.

Life is just going by way too fast and
the family is growing up so quickly.

hugs,

I have 2 perfect vacations....
1) with my husband somewhere where we would go to relax (that's what vacations are)in a beautiful hotel with beautiful scenery, great service...no cell phones, computers, and shopping...total meltdown and relax.
2) with my best friend...going to the mainland (we live in Hawaii)to a fantastic craft expo and have a great time getting alot of goodies to bring home! And having fun, fun, fun like there's no care in the world ...for the moment! LOL

Jeaneen:

My favorite vacation would be just my husband and I. The destimation would either be somewhere relaxing and familiar (Williamsburg, VA) or new and exciting (a cruise or a Caribbean Island). The best part - we are doing both in April and May of this year!!!

Kathy:

My perfect vacation is a bit of a worry. I would love to come to the States and be shown all the fabulous places to indulge my papercrafting habit. Australia is so lacking in the beautiful and plentiful products that you are all so lucky to have... not to mention the phenomenal price difference. I would bring a fellow paper addict, an empty suitcase and a credit card... as well as my hubby and twin girls, to smile with and cuddle at the end of each day.

ahh... my perfect vacation would be at an exclusive beach resort with my sister. The only thing on the agenda would be relaxing at the beach or poolside, reading silly magazines, watching chick-flicks at night and just catching up on life.

The good thing is we're talking about doing this for her upcoming birthday! woohoo!!

My dreamvacation is going to the USA for several weeks and discover if everything I have heard about USA and americans are true. This would be a perfect (and fun) way to practice my english that I learnd in school. I would definitivly go with my boyfriend becurse he wants to go at NHL hockey in Anaheim.
Of course I go with almost empty suitcaises so I can shop a lot of scrapbook material in the land of Scrapbooking = heaven.
Thanks for doing films on you tube!

My perfect vacation...hmmm...I have 2:
First would be a family trip to Disney. I have been a total of 3 times so far in my life but I can not wait to see Disney through the eyes for my boys(5 & 3 1/2)
My second would be the trip to Italy with my Husband. I hope to one day be able to do the trip we had to cancel after 9/11.

My relaxing place to vacation is South Padre Island in Texas. Great place to kick back, swim, or just lie on the beach with your feet in the sand under a cool breeze and umbrella! Mmmmm! I'm there already!

Kathleen:

I have so many perfect vacations swimming around in my head. I would love to relive our vacations to London, Bath, Paris or even Maui but this time include our 10 year old daughter since she wasn't born yet when we visited those places sooooo long ago. But if I think of our 10 year old daughter and what she loves to do and what we enjoy as a family, then perhaps I would have to say that our perfect vacation would be a week in Tahoe. A perfect week would be horseback riding in the mountains, swimming in the lake, playing mini-golf and having water gun fights in the afternoons in front of the Rustic Cottages we like to stay at when we get to visit beautiful Lake Tahoe. Thanks Kristina, just remembering our vacation like that was a bit of a get-away.

One of the things I absolutely must do before I die is go to Venice. It just looks like a wonderful romantic place. Hawaii would be nice though too. On our Hawaiian honeymoon, my hubby said we should come back every year for our anniversary. That was 10 years ago and we haven't made it back yet, but hey, I'm thankful I got to go once! Thanks for the giveaways, Kristina. What a sweetheart you are!

My perfect vacation would be to take my nieces and nephews back to Ireland and visit the homeland of my grandparents (their great-grandparents). I made the trip several years ago with my grandmother before she passed away and it was wonderful.

Nicole (AZ):

My perfect vacation, it would have to be a Disney Cruise with my daughter who is 10, going on 30! The last year and half has been hard. My husband her father past away a year and half ago in a tragic accident, and it’s been really hard for her and I to get really close. She was a daddy’s girl… I think it would be great for us to do something together that I know we both would enjoy and can get close.…

Hi Kristina!
My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 2 years now and we're in our first year of college together. So, now isn't the best time to go on a vacation, but after we're married I would love to go backpacking across Europe, seeing all of the beautiful places and just being happy and in love!
Thanks for being so sweet and generous! Have fun at Disneyland!

My perfect vacation would be with my hubby and 2 kiddos somewhere tropical where my daughter and hubby can snorkel while my son and I watch, swim, and do other things (we're not that great at it!). Or maybe we'll try again! Either way, as long as we're together and the kids come running up to me while I'm sunbathing (not allowed to do that anymore in real life since I work for a dermatologist!) and show me their treasures from the sea. Thanks for the chance to win!

Woah!! I wonder if this will make it to 1000 comments?!
I would love to travel to England and Ireland. Probably with my closest two friends. I have some family in England, so some visits would be made...but mostly to see snow and the beautiful countryside there.
And woah again!! What generous blog candy :D

My perfect vacation would be to come to the States and go on a craft shopping spree with unlimited funds....but if I can't do that then it would have to be to a gorgeous paradise island with my hubby to get away from the rat race for as long as possible! Bliss! xx

My perfect vacation would involve some beach in a nice warm tropical climate and a hotel with daily maid service. A beautiful swimming pool with palm trees and lounge chairs wouldn't hurt either. I definitely want my husband there, and I alternate between wanting my kids (ages 12 & 15) there or not. (After you've been penned up in a small house buried in snow in NE Ohio for a couple of months during winter with 'em, you'd know what I mean!) Enjoy your getaway!

I think i would love a vacation touring country France going to bed & breakfast type places. Not having to cook or clean and i dont think i'd bring my chrildren. I think it would be fantastically romantic and relaxing!

I think I'd take a trip anywhere, it's been so long since we've had a real vacation, but I would probably pick a cruise to Hawaii with my hubby, the kids and a babysitter to come along! Have fun in Disneyland!

A great vacation getaway destination would be Alaska. I have always wanted to see the whales and other wildlife. My hubby wants to fish (which would be fun) and hunt (he can do that alone). Really my hubby and I would just enjoy nature and get away from city life for awhile.

My dream vacation would be taking my family on a trip to New Zealand for some of the adventure packages they have. For example, zip lines over canyons, whitewater rafting, bungee jumping etc all in some of the most scenic countryside. Or I think it would also be really cool to take my family to Germany and Ireland to follow our roots

My perfect vacation would be to relive our last family vacation from 1995 - a cabin in the mountains with a stack of books and magazines ye high, cameras, a car to take day trips and just wonderful time with each other.

I just came back from my perfect holiday with my husband. We left our daughter with my brothers family and we went and stayed at a Retreat for 2 nights.

My perfect holiday is doing nothing at a hotel (it doesn't necessarily have to be anywhere in particular). Having all meals cooked for me and not have to do any washing up and being able to just sleep or swim or read a book. So basically doing nothing and not having to travel too far to get there.

My perfect vacation would be with my husband - it has been too long since we got away together, just the two of us. Anyplace we could drive to, with a pool, great places to stroll and shop and eat. We are actually planning a getaway to Charleston, SC which will be just perfect. Then again there is always Paris!! :)

January 21, 2009 @ 3:57 PM

My perfect vacation...would probably be to a remote lake, with my boys and husband. We'd fish and hang out, play some football, grill great food. No TV, no phones! Have no worries and no cares - just time spent with each other!

The perfect vacation would be in Hawaii for 2 nice hot sunny weeks with my husband. It's been a joke for years now and the other day he said to me, "by the time you're 80 you'll probably be able to go virtually!" I don't want to go at 80, I want to escape my dear kids and go NOW! lol

Thanks for the chance to win such great prizes.

My idea of the perfect vacation would be to go to the Bahamas with my husband, whom I love very much, for a week long vacation on a secluded island. A place with a nice jacuzzi and some candles...a bouquet of tropical flowers when we walk in the door and some lovely delectable chocolates. The perfect romantic getaway with the love of my life! That is my idea of the perfect vacation!!!!!! OOOO...maybe it's time to plan one?!?!

Hey Kristina - fantastic giveaways! If we're talking perfect vacay's, I'd like to take a meditteranean cruise with my husband with extended stopovers in each port, long enough to really explore the nooks and crannies of the historic cities, towns and villages. You know, to get into the place ... yet balanced with enough at-sea days to meet the serious need for some R&R!

ENjoy Disney.

My perfect Vacation would be Disneyland with my family. I havn't gone very many places on vacation, so I know it would be fun to try someplace new, but honestly, I love Disneyland...and being there with my family would be even better! :)

Wow! thanks for this chance to win your awesome giveaways! my dream vacation would be Antarctica with my husband and two little ones. But, it remains a dream because it costs the earth to go there! I live in Australia and if you look in the map, it seems close enough but you need to fly to Chile to get there. anyway, i think it will be amazing for the kids to see the earth's last frontier - unspoiled by man

January 21, 2009 @ 4:24 PM

My idea of the perfect vacation is a two week long trip to the Bahamas with my husband. On a little secluded island with a huge walk in shower and a big jacuze tub for two ;) Some lovely tropical flowers when you first walk in with some delectable chocolates. Spending long days in the sun and long walks at night on the beach just talking! A romatic getaway with the love of my life...that would be the perfect vacation!

January 21, 2009 @ 4:25 PM
833
 

Perfect vacay... one in which my family comes with me, but somehow I do not have to pack for all of them, haha!! Beach. No cooking for me. Fun for all. I did just go to Costa Rica in November for a post-baby vacation with my husband... and that was a pretty darned good trip! It did involve packing, though.

Jennine :

My perfect vacation would be Greece with my husband. Why, becuase that is where we wanted to go on our honeymoon but were unable to because we couldnt afford it. My husband would be able to enjoy all the great food becuase he loves to cook and I would be able to enjoy all the great culture and beauty. We would just soak it all up! That would be perfect! Of courst this would happen before we have our first child.

My perfect vacation would include a week on a remote island (not a tourist trap) with my hubby. A place warm enough to swim, but not so much where I'm sweating where I sit. A place where the sky is crystal clear with fluffy white clouds and the beach is secluded and the water is clear so you can see your feet while standing. A place where you've seen it on a calendar, but it's real...because I've actually found a little heaven on earth. A place where your soul can be at peace and your worries at bay. I've made myself so witsful, I'm going to have to plan a vacation soon. :)

My dream vacation would be with my Husband (Hmmm... gotta find him first. It's not as easy as it looks!) on a beach where we would enjoy the water; breathtaking sunrises and sunsets; beautiful scenery; delicious food we could eat without worry of gaining a single pound (heehee); and to just enjoy being together without a care in the world. Now all y'all KNOW I'm dreaming! Oh, and ice cream, gotta have lotsa ice cream. " )

Have fun at Disneyland Kristina!!

I have been married for 38 years. My husband and I have had many lovely vacations overseas and at home. The nicest was in Bali, Indonesia. I would like to go back there, but it really is too far. So my perfect vacation would be to go to Hawaii. However, I live in Colorado where the mountains are so beautiful. I am lucky enough to live where it could be a vacation every day!

I'm hoping to take my "perfect" vacation really soon ... but I would love to go through several countries in Europe (I'm thinking England, Ireland, France, Italy, Greece for starters), and maybe take a cruise through the mediterranean as well. And after dealing with 17 roommates (sequentially, not all at the same time!) I'm definitely going ALONE ;) I'd also love to go to Australia & New Zealand but that'll have to be perfect vacay #2 :) Thanks for the chance to win some goodies!! ((Hugs))

My perfect vacation? That is such a hard question! LOL I have never been on vacation and there are so many places I want to go and things I want to see.

I guess that means it would be a year long trip around the world! I would take my hubby of course. I think I would only have our son join us for certain areas we went. Some of the places I want to see wouldn't be all that great for a toddler. I don't see him enjoying the Irish country side. ;)

Sarah Jane:

For the perfect COLD vacation, I would want to go to Churchill, Manitoba on a polar bear expedition to get up-close and personal, but if I was craving a WARM vacation, I think I would try for the US Virgin Islands. (I've dreamed of going to both locations.) Of course, I would travel with hubby (who I call Mr. Right); although, since currently being pregnant with our first child, I don't see any vacations in our near future.

Enjoy Disney! Warm wishes and warm weather - coming your way!

For the perfect vacation I think that I would like to have one 'White Christmas' with my family, where I don't have to do all the work would be nice too. After a couple of weeks of enjoying the whole experience, it would be straight on a plane back home to Australia and enjoy the warm again.

Hope you have a great time in Disneyland, I hope it is warm for you.

My perfect vacation would be me, my fiancee, and my daughter on the nickolodeon cruise. It looks like so much fun and my daughter is the perfect age right now. Maybe if we can save a little money in this economy, we'll splurge.

Crystal:

Becuase my life is crazy and I don't get to see my husband much - my perfect vacation would be shared with my husband and it invovles one of FULL relaxation on a sandy caribbean or west indies white beach at an all inclusive village where you are able to be spoiled to the highest. I would want to sail out in the middle of the ocean one day, spa treatments eat wonderful seafood and other island delicacies, butler service on the beach, and long lazy days with island drinks, the ability to sleep and read and do absolutely nothing so I can be totally revived to tackle all of lifes wonderful daily "opportunities".

Japan! I'd take my mom, step-dad (who is Japanese) for sure. I might even like to take my aunt and cousins - just so they could get a little taste of another culture!
The only thing I would want to do the entire time is eat sushi! :)

I had Episode 1 of my perfect vacation already. In 2007 my husband and I got to go to New Zealand for 3 weeks! We are not sit on the beach vacation type of people. We like to get out and explore a country. 3 weeks barely gave us a dent in all we wanted to see. New Zealand is TOPS on our list of places to return to and so MUCH more exploring.

Have to tell you my perfect vacation would be a cruise to.... ALASKA!!! Bizarre huh? But it is supposed to be beautiful, and the cruises only go in the summer, so I think it would be awesome! I would go with my husband, since, after 10 years, we haven't "officially" had a honeymoon. Got married in University reading break, then kids came along....so this stuff would be wonderful to win if we ever do go on our vacation I could use this to scrap it! Oh, and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE 5 Phat Friends!!!!

My perfect vacation would probably be somewhere in Mexico, where it\'s warm and I can run around in flip-flops again; it would be great to go there with the man in my life but, as there is NO man in my life and we\'re doing a \'pretend\' vacation, I\'d like to go with a yet-to-be discovered love!

Lori:

Love the videos. I took my dream vacation this year! I went to Hawaii with my husband of 20 yrs to celebrate my 40th Birthday and our 2oth anniversary. We went to Maui and Kauai. We went snorkeling, hiking to waterfalls, toured a botanical garden, took a helicopter ride, ( fun but I got a little quoozy), and laid around drinking fruity drinks with umbrellas. We have talked about going to Hawaii our entire marriage. I made a photo book for my husband for our actual anniversary and he framed some pictures for my for christmas. I am working on a bigger scrapbook and recently addded some pics to facebook just to cheer my friends here in Illinois, during the bitter cold last week. The perfect vacation is one filled with memories of those you love the most, there is something special about lazy days no matter where you are.
I would love to have a scallop punch :)

My husband and I never had an opportunity to take a honeymoon because he was immediately sent to Korea with the Air Force for one year. So my perfect vacation would be anywhere with him! We'd love to go to the Caribbean and do a lovely, relaxing vacation/honeymoon. Of course, now that I have a 4-month-old...I think I'd be okay taking him, too. :-)

I would love to go back to Hawaii, Kauai to be exact, where my hubby and I traveled to for our honeymoon. I know most would want a kid-free vacation, but I would definitely be toting along my 1 year old sweetie. I would simply miss her too much and a vacation wouldn't be complete without her!

I would definitely go with my husband and we would just fly in, land and rent a vehicle.
Stop where we want, sleep in 'local' inns and just enjoy getting to know the people, culture and flavor
of New Zealand.
My second choice would be: Hawaii

My ideal vacation would be a two month long trip to Greece. I`ve been fascinated by Greece for such a long time and would LOVE to go. Just my husband and I.

For now, I just hope to win a set of precision files! :)

Nance in Reno:

This past summer, my 15 y.o. daughter and I spent 17 days in Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, France, and England. We had a great time; three things would have made it better:
1. my husband could have joined us (I spent our 21 yr anniversary in Venice without him)
2. the weather would have been cooler
3. the Euro would have been weaker compared with the dollar.

Although our trip was awesome, the best part was meeting up with my best friend from college who lives in Zurich.

My perfect vacation would be their cottage on the beach, with all of their activities available: scuba diving, sunset sailboat cruise (yummy apps & wine!), high tea, fishing, lounging, island exploring, shopping, and their many restaurants. I would bring my husband and kids and a babysitter to watch them when needed. And some really good books.

Thank you for the fun opportunity!

My aunt always said that if she won the lottery she would take our entire family to Hawaii. Eventhough it's like 20 years later and our family has tripled in size, I still think it would be so much fun!

Thanks for the chance to win and hope you have a blast at Disneyland.

My perfect vacation would be to go to Bali, Indonesia. That was where I had my wedding. The sun, sand and skies are just so surreal. It would be perfect if my husband and I could revisit there again. When we were there we mostly entertained our guests and didn't have a chance to enjoy the sun, sand, sea, and sky.

Trina Leeson:

I would go away with my hard working hubby and the kids so we could have some quality, uninterrupted time together. It would be somewhere where we can picnic, go swimming and we would have to take a nanny (if your going to dream, dream BIG!) so that Hubby and I could go out at night when the children are in bed. Oh and there would be no phones so his work can't call and get him to come in..........again!!! LOL

Oh Kristina, that is such an easy question for me to answer! My favorite vacation would be Maui with my wonderful husband celebrating our 10 year anniversary! I laugh at the fact that we were honeymooning in Maui in '99 and talked about returning every 5 years. What a difference kids make to vacation plans!

This picture was taken at the Texas Tech vs. Texas football game on November 10, 2007. In previous years, my Dad and I had a tradition that he would come to Austin for the Tech/Texas game and I would go to Lubbock when the game was played there. This was the first year that he didn't feel up to making the trip for the game, so Kate and I decided to go. Tech lost the game 59-43 in a shoot out, and my father passed away in March of the next year.

What if I've already had 2 of the most perfect vacations??

The 1st one my husband and I went to Hawaii and Kauai. We stayed with my sister and another friend, so that was free, the flights were with buddy passes, so that was CHEAP and the islands were wonderful. And NO KIDS.

The 2nd was a 12 day cruise from Greece to Egypt to Turkey. Mainly paid for by my mother-in-law, we saw amazing sights and acted like newlyweds. Again NO KIDS. Perfect vacations.

I cannot wait to see their faces when they get to see so many of the characters they have come to love IRL! And it will be fun for DH and I because WDW is ageless!

My perfect vacation would be a vacation-period. I have not had one since 1985, when I took my kids to Disneyworld. I have two place I so want to visit. The first is NYC which is pretty unaffordable on my budget now that hub has retired. So my choice would be New Orleans sometime after Easter-because they could use the tourism dollars so much and I could see history from before and some in the making with the rebuilding process. In fact, I am trying to figure a way to sell my house and maybe move there-how cool would that be?

I love eating and cooking in that particular order. I would love to go on a trip to Tuscany, Italy where I could learn to cook with the freshest ingredients.. and off course sample the food and wine...I guess I will have to do that with my husband who will probable be salivating over some Masserrati while I do what I love to do.

perfect vacation--a place where when you came back from vacation and not need another vacation.

the perfect vacay would probably be Spain again. i've been to Barcelona, and desperately want to return... amazing churros, hot chocolate, market places, and mosaics. Gaudi is an amazing architect/ artist.
i LOVE the atmosphere... even the mimes dressed up as different characters asking for $ on the street. i don't even mind not being fluent!

happy trails as you go enjoy Disney!

January 21, 2009 @ 11:49 PM

The perfect vacation for me would be a three week trip (this time of year) to South East Asia with my hubby and 2yo daughter. Thailand is really nice. This is a great trip as it is affordable (after the airline tickets), the weather is fantastic and the food is fabulous!

Don't know what the problem was, but I couldn't comment from my Mac at work. I tried the suggestions you made earlier and still no go! So I commented after I got home from work!

Hi Kristina

My perfect vacation would be with my husband, somewhere warm where we could lay in the sun, I can read and he can scuba dive - the perfect compromise as well!

Enjoy Disney - my mum and dad were going to take me when I was 3, but then they had my twin brothers instead so we couldn't go. I'm 35 now and I still haven't got over it!!

Jennifer :

I would love to go on a vacation with my family where we would be catered too. Usually going on vacation is for the kids, but I still have the work to do!! If someone else was taking care of all the little details I could really enjoy the time with my kids. Another vacation would be going back to Disneyland. We took my kids last April and the sparkle in their eyes when they saw it was amazing. I would go back in a heart beat.

Hi,
First want to mention that you have a great blog and that you make beautifull cards.
Out favorite holiday is in a mobile-home to somewhere where the children can play with other children and my husband has enough people to chat with. I would place my chair in the sun and catch up in my scrapbooking literature. And afther diner we play cards or do some cardmaking. Just thinking about it makes me want to go already.

January 22, 2009 @ 12:56 AM

Holy smokes, talk about a crazy response! :)
Lesse, perfect huh? Well, I've *always* wanted to go to Spain and see the Lippizaners. Yeah, I know, I'm still a 14 year old girl at heart!
Since having a little boy though, maybe some peace and quiet with the hubster. One of those amazing looking huts on the water somewhere in the South Pacific? Oh, yeah.
But Disneyland seems almost doable in this economy! :D Have a GREAT time!

OK, my perfect vacation... let me think... as I type this, my DH is slurping on his cup of tea behind me, so I guess my idea of perfect would be some where warm, but with GREAT shopping, and not to many tourists of course. At this stage I'd have to say the Maldives. Ohhhh, I could pack my bags tonight! Only rain in the wee hours as that's sooo nice to sleep to. And of course, the three "S"s. Shopping, Sun & ... Sleeping! LOL. AND no DH slurping his tea. But I'd still take him!

January 22, 2009 @ 1:30 AM
1071
 

Oh my god, I can't believe how many people have commented!! Wow!

Anyway my ideal holiday would be an island resort where my hubby and can celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary this year. It would be nice to go somewhere where we could take the kids and know that they were well looked after while we were getting a massage or going out for dinner. Then we get to play with them during the day and not miss them on our getaway. Hmm....I'll keep sending positive thoughts out there and see what happens.

Even though I'd love a holiday away with hubby & my girls - currently I would just lurv to have a whole week away at my best friend's sister's coast house. It is a stunning house set on a cliff overlooking the beach, we do usually have a girlies weekend away once a year - but just imagine a whole week.... I would also have to pay my friend who is a massage therapist to join us and then we could stop between scrapping for hour long massages...bliss!! I would adore a whole week without any crying, whining or nappies!!! Is that soooo much to ask for?

January 22, 2009 @ 2:16 AM

My perfect vacation would be a trip to Disneyland with my whole family, my husband, children, my parents, sisters, brothers-in-law, neices and nephews, .. all together, having fun in the Happiest Place on Earth!
Of course, I have allowed myself to dream a little with this- my BF is not yet my husband, we have no children and I only have 1 neice and nephew! Hold out a few years and maybe all these dreams can come true though!
Maybe we should buddy up with someone else on this comment list- I reckon we've got enough destinations for some pretty good house swaps!

My perfect Vacation? Hmmm....Secluded Inn somewhere in the mountains with walking trails, meadows, horses for riding, llamas for carrying my pack, a little chapel in the woods for prayer and fabulous fresh organic food. And of course a stamp room fully stocked. Anyone know of such a place?

January 22, 2009 @ 3:03 AM

My dream holiday would be LA/Aneheim Disney Land, Universal Studios, Rodeo Drive, Tour of the stars homes etc then by RV to Chicago via Route 66 (or what's left of it) then Oprah and the sites of Chicago, a few weeks in Wisconsin with my sister-in-law and her husband followed by a week or 2 in New York before Flying home to Australia.

We were actually in the middle of planning this trip when I found out I was pregnant, we've since bought a house and started renovating said house so it will be a long time before we can make this trip but I can't wait to be able to do it!

January 22, 2009 @ 3:20 AM

My perfect vacation? Most likely to Japan or Italy. I am quite a food lover in itlian and japanese food! And of cos, travelling to other countries just to look for great food ! And most likely with friends who love to eat, or better still, with my soulmate who share the same interest as me. =)

I just had a perfect trip. I went with my family (husband and 3 kids) to Disney. The kids are in the perfect age and my husband was so organized, we enjoyed every moment, he made us feel so important. He brought breakfast every day for us to have in the room. He had dinner with the characters... Loved the trip, will do it again without even thinking!!!!

Wow! What a great way to win a prize! Thanks for putting it up for everyone.

My perfect vacation includes the whole family. My husband and three kids. We'd go anywhere warm really, with a nice beach as the kids love the water as does Mommy. We'd have a beach house, light camp fires during the night and just have a great time being together. Away from the mad rush of home, work and school.

My perfect vacation would be to Williamsburg VA with my hubby. We have been trying to do this for two years and never seem to find the time (much less the idea of spending that $) to get there! We promised ourselves when both kids were in college we would make this trip but it does not seem to be happening.... We are not eager travels and are probably too content to stay a home to make it! Enjoy your vacation! debb

My perfect vacation would pretty much be anywhere right now....well anywhere tropical! My daughter is almost 1.5 years and our second baby is due in a few months so I anticipate that we are not going anywhere for a long time! We have had so much snow lately that I would really love to dig my toes in the sand and feel the nice salty water on my face! Oh well, lots to look forward too......

First, I want to say, Have fun on your trip! I would not mind going to Disney with my children but, I want to wait till both of kids can enjoy it (their 4 and 1). A couple of more years and we are there!

So, I would LOVE to go away with my husband. We both tease that we are going to leave the kids here and just go hop on a plane one day. We'd love to go some place warm and just RELAX and SLEEP:)

Shelli:

My perfect vacation would have to be to one of the smaller, less touristy Hawaiian Islands. I would take my wonderful hubby and my teens! Of course ton's of spending cash would be great so we could take in all the adventure we wanted! But mostly, laying on some beach (after WW goals are met of course) and spending time together talking and making memories is what would make the vacation heavenly!

My dream vacation is in London. Although it's kind of strange - I want it to rain because I want to be there with my husband and never leave the hotel room :)...
I love London.
But the most important thing is just shut down your phone and disconnect from the real life.

Thank you for the chance!

I just had the greatest of all holiday vacations. I spent the first three days all by myself reading, watching movies and lounging. Then I went to visit my family for 3 days of Christmas fun. Went back home for three more days of personal relaxation followed by a three day stint with my niece(7) and nephews (12 & 10)coming to visit (no parents;) )We went to the movies, ate junk food, went snow tubing, and out to eat at their favorite places. Total over indulgence!!! It was a PERFECT Vacation.

Dina Carroll:

My ideal vacation would be... well first off it would be with my husband and 2 teenagers, the location really wouldn't matter although tropical is my preferred vacation. I'm thinking no stress and no pressures, go and do nothing or everything, whatever we are feeling at the time. Unfortunately, you have no idea how bad I truly need this vaaction, life has been very stressful lately. Thanks for asking, a mom can dream can't she?

Well, this is probably going to sound boring to most people but my perfect vacation would be to spend it at home with my husband. I can't think of anything better because I don't have to pack, we don't have to fight any traffic or stand in long airport lines, and we have all of our favorite things already here. Plus, when you work outside the home you don't spend that much time at home!
Thanks for the chance to win one of these awesome prizes!

I think a great vacation would be a 2-3 week trip to Walt DisneyWorld. My kids love Disneyland alsmost as much as I do...LOL And my husband is ok either way. So I think a nice family vacation to Walt DisneyWorld would be great. Both my husnabd and I have been before we meet but never as a family. Oh to dream...lol

I think I have two perfect vacations in mind. The first would be to take my little family to Disneyland...and (might I add) everyone would get along:o)

The second would be a little trip to Fiji with just my hubby.

My perfect vacation would include Disney, my husband, and a couple of weeks. I think we would start out with the Disney cruise (which I hear is incredible) and then we would fly to Disneyworld and spend another week or so there. I would want to spend enough time there that I didn't feel like we were rushing to see things. Ya' know? I would want it to be more relaxing than I have heard it can be. We are Disney lovers and we go to Disneyland atleast once a week. I think Disneyworld and the Disney cruise would truly be an amazing vacation.

Every year we go to the Oregon coast. Our favorite place is Cannon Beach. My husband and I take our babies (Mini Schnauzer's Annie and Sophie) and camp. This place has everything including a wonderful state park,beautiful beaches and wonderful people. Our favorite thing to do is take the jeep and drive on the beach and have a picnic lunch. The dogs can run free and love the surf and the seagulls. I wish I were there now!!

My perfect vacation would be going to Cambodia Siem Reap. My husband and I went there as part of our Asian Tour on our honeymoon. We both love history and the architectures of the Angkor Wat Temple. I would love to show them to my children and just teach them how important it is to have history in a country. I know some people would just love to sit down on a beach and drink beer! I would too...but I would rather see the country and leave with full of knowledge and story to tell.

Erin W.:

My perfect vacation would be a tour of Europe...making stops in almost every European country. I would go with a few of my best girlfriends and my sister. And it would last for a whole month, in order to really explore! We would check out the most popular cities (London, Paris, Rome, etc.) but also see some areas off the beaten path. Aaaahhh, to dream....

My perfect vacation...

Someplace warm and tropical (it's a balmy 15 today) in a super swanky hotel near the ocean with a private beach. And a cute cabana boy to watch over me. Oh, and no kids. Great shopping and time to make cards which the cabana boy would clean up after me and pack all my stuff for me.

My perfect vacation would have to be somewhere near the ocean, rent a cottage for the week. I would love to go with my husband or my saister. Just a low key kinda trip where you wander around the town, stop for something to eat,spend some time reading. Wonder out for a walk to snap some photos, t-shirt, capris and flipflops are the trip uniform.

Prema:

My Idea of the perfect vacation would be to sit and enjoy life go by in Italy. We went on our honeymoon and everything about Italy was like eye candy...from the stores, the people, the food, the buildings, even the cobblestone roads!

I would love to go back again with my husband, rent a villa on the coast, drink lovely wine, and eat. They really know how to live in Italy and I would like to experience it again.

Wow what great giveaways! Thanks so much for sharing, your generosity astounds me. My perfect vacation would be to see Holland (my parents both imigrated from there with their families when they were young). I would love to go with my parents , my husband and our kids.

Since I don't get to see my family very often, I would LOVE to head back to Kansas City to see my mom and sister, then head over to Colorado to visit my dad. It would be nice if my DH and boys could come with me, but it could be just me so I have unfettered "reconnect" time. :-)

Thanks for the opportunity for the goodies, and I hope you have a great time on your vacation!

Getting one of those nice cabins you can rent. There would be fresh powder on the mountain. Just right weather, not too cold, but not warm enough for the snow to be melting. Having cocoa when it was getting dark. Ahhh fun!!!

We all spent 10 days on the beach last year and had a blast together. This year we want to see Mickey, too.

The perfect vacation is Disney World,Orlando, Florida with my 6year-old and 4year old 9hubby too) and getting on the ride, "It's a Small World". I have been to many places but this beats them all and it is extra special with my two babies reliving the day that I went on this ride as a 9 year-old. Seeing their faces is the best. I am 42 years-old now. Have a great vacation.

WOW can you believe the number of comments.

Just a vacation would be perfect for me. Right now I would enjoy being somewhere warm because I am sick of winter and snow.
When I say I would like a vacation it just means I need a change of scenery because my vacation has to have my family. I cannot imagine a vacation without my husband and two children.

Lauralee Hensley:

I have not been on a vacation, nor had one since I was 16 years old. In my 15 years of marriage, I have never had or been on vacation. Sure, once we got out of the state, but that was to drive fast out of state to a funeral and then quickly after it, drive back. We got home in the nick of time, because the boy down the block who was watching our dogs locked the keys in the house with the dogs and he and his Dad had called the Sheriff's Dept. to get permission to break the front door in. We pulled in the driveway in the nick of time and the door was spared. I have never had a honeymoon either. So, since I've never been out of the continental U.S. I thought Hawaii would be nice with my husband. Though I'd also like to go and visit Alaska one day. My hubby is not into cold, since we get enough of it in the winter where we live, so if I someday ever have enough money, I figure Hawaii would be good for us. Good luck to all.

My perfect vacation is Disney World, which I truly believe is the happiest place on earth. I haven't been since my honeymoon but I'd love to go back with my husband, my parents and my brother, SIL and their children. I'd have a blast with my nephew and no matter if the bun in the oven is a boy or a girl, we'd have to ride Splash Mountain at least 6 times. Perfection!

My favorite vacation is any where that I can spend time with my husband and 3 children. We do prefer the happiest place on Earth. Our most recent vacation was aboard the Disney Magic for a week long cruise to the Mexican Rivera. It was a great time with great memories!

My perfect vacation would be anywhere that my guy and I could have a carefree, relaxed adventure. We have never been able to afford a vacation together and need one desparately. Maybe a warm tropical place? Maybe England and Ireland? Maybe Disney World? Maybe just a few hours away in a nice B&B with a fireplace and a good dinner. We are easy to please!

I would love to be in a bungalow on the beach. To wake up with the ocean breeze blowing through the room and listening to the gentle wave. aaaahhhhh. What a relaxing and wonderful thought!
Hope you have an enjoyable vacation.

Wow....I guess I would have to say that I would go just about anywhere as long as I can go with my husband. We got married in May but we haven't been able to go on a honeymoon yet. Somewhere where there's good food!!!

Wow Kristina you are super generous. My ideal/fav vacation is spending time on the water, preferably in Maine or Cabo San Lucas (opposite ends of the spectrum, but both beautiful!!!) Wishing you safe and FUN travels to Disney...Morgan

My ultimate vacation would be to take a cruise around the world with my husband and family. Ultimately this trip would be a result of winning the lottery, so that we wouldn't have to worry about the work that was accumulating and waiting for us when we returned! Thanks!

My ultimate vacation would be spending several weeks touring Europe with my husband and (gasp!) my in-laws. We would hit the must-sees, including London, Paris, Madrid, Milan, Rome, Versailles, Venice, Berlin, and Amersterdam. I'm a historian, and a city-girl, so the history, archetecture, and culture of these areas is something I have always wanted to see!

I think I've already been on my perfect vacation - or am about to go. I went to Barcelona with the love of my life a little over 2 years ago. I totally fell inlove with the city, although we were there for just 3 days. Now we're going back in february for a week to celebrate our 10:th anniversary!

I'm also dreaming about going to the caribbean to dive, but I'm a bit squeemish with bugs and who knows what giant bugs they have there, lol. Maybe I'm better off to stay close to home and go to Spain (I live in Sweden)

If it was a vacation for me alone I would go to France and spend days roaming the halls of the Louvre, Versailles and around the Eiffel Tower. But I would dearly miss my husband and son so the perfect vacation would be with them, Disney World for a week. Fun, Fun, Fun!
