The USA of course LOL we hit 10 states last year and logged about 6 thousand miles on our rental ( HERTZ must love us bringing the car in cream crackered from all the driving we did ) I have to see my grand sons ( they will be 5 and 1 by the time we see them ) my mom will be turning 88 this year ( gotta see mom ) plus a wedding plus 2 baby showers ( neices are having babies this year about the same time) then head down to Florida... hit a bunch of beaches, visit my brother ( he has a GORGEOUS home in Tampa right next to a pond with an alligator.. we named it Jodi cos he seemed to have his eye on me chomp chomp yummy Jodi )
We managed to go to : http://www.oklahomacitynationalmemorial.org/ that was probably the most haunting and moving memorial I have ever been to..
Kim ( my dutchman) totally loves the variety that the USA offers, we even managed to go to a former presidents home : http://www.nps.gov/heho it was a gorgeous area. Funnily enough I didn't know diddly about this guy ( I mean Ok he was our President before I was born but it was interesting to read about his life and see his "home" and his grave )
We are not sure where we will be going after we leave my moms, we will have 5 weeks of travel after that,, so we set the Sat Nav and just go.......best way to travel i tell ya :-D
