I'm going to Tsilivi in Zante again this year.
It will be my 5th time there as i love it. The Greek people are so friendly, they remember you by your first names even if you dont stay at their hotel all the time.
love it love it love it:green:

Well this year we might not go away, its a toss up between the Haven park in Hafan y Mor (Wales) or a weekend away in Birmingham to watch WWE Smackdown!
Cant think what would be better!

The Loire...fairytale chateaux,the birth place of Joan of Arc,in orlens...Le Mans car racing...

Burgundy...woodlands and waterfalls,romanesque churches...the wines here are the most delicious in the world

Le Massif Central...the dramatic landscape,extinct volcanoes...remote villages...the treasures of Gorges Du Tarn...

The Rhone Valley and French Alps...Lyon,Grenoble,and the spa toen of Evian Les Bians..

Poitou and Aquitaine...La Rochelle has a lovely harbour...the Marais Poitevin has beautiful marsh land...Poitiers Cathederale is stunning...Bordeaux wine is delicious!

Perigord,Quercy and Gascony...Rocomadour is breathtaking...the market in Sarlat is tempting...the caves here is where you can see where prehistoric man lived.

The Pyrenees...there is a huge shrine at Lourdes...Basque country here...

awwww Gabi...I am so bad to your homeland...

Disney is fab...my hubby prefers it to the US versions...but yeah your right...not really Paris...

I have been to Paris...but it scared me..I was 12 years old and got accosted on the metro....

Carcassone...passed through it...not sure if we had McDonalds there....is it near Limoges????

Although we drove from the South of France to Paris...we only stopped in the Formula 1's .... Brieve (?) was the best...:lol:

I want to go back to france though and have a holiday in a farmhouse...I have got some real affection for the country...I mentioned to hubby as a holiday this year...but think we are buying a new home....so maybe soon...

I love the area east of Malaga, round La Herradura and Almunecar. It is still very "local" and unspoiled by tourism (ooops maybe should have kept quiet! )

I love Blackpool Sands In Devon (nr Dartmouth)

Not the best sand but extremely clean and well cared for beach and of course, important to me, an organic cafe :lol:

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I want to go on holiday this year :cry:

I am going to Ireland to see my friend get married which will be lovely.

We used to go to a greek island every year when I was younger, my dream part of the world I love it...I still dream about the Greeks!!!

My mum wants to have an affair with a greek waiter with long brown hair (her taste not mine!) But I must say the scuba instructors are GORGEOUS!

You lucky duckys going on holiday...me jealous...just a bit!!!

I love Benidorm but this year Paul and I have promised ourselves a biking holiday down to my cousins place in Arle, thats South of France, very Spanish feel and look, I love it there and I'm hoping that Paul will fall in love with it to.
If he does my Uncle wants to build me a home:green:
Unfortunately we would then need jobs
