Post by vince90 »

I don’t have any plan yet but I am thinking I will spend my vacation on the beach this year. I like to go to Bahamas or Cancun Mexico or the Florida beach.

I'm dreaming about Scotland. I haven't been there so far. I want to see all these old mysterious castles, wander on heaths and cliffs ( :?: - a kind of high seashore) and try some old Scotch whisky, of course... :lol:

It's called Tomatina, and it makes me sick. Look how they throw away all those tomatoes... That's food, for godsakes! People are still dying of hunger in the world. :evil:

Finally we have a plan for our summer vacation. We are going to Orange county California for seven days and the tickets already have booked. It took a little bit time for us to figure out the place to entertain all of us and California is the place. It has beautiful beaches for me to enjoy, the Little Saigon for my wife to shop and dine, and the Disney Land to keep my kids busy. Yeah, they are very excited and can’t wait for it. Anyway this is our first trip to this area and I hope we will have a good time. I already have jotted down few places but I would appreciate any suggestion where to go and dine.

How is about you? Hope you have a great summer.

If you like snow, you should visit New England states in the winter time. Vermont and New Hampshire have a lot of snows for you to practice snowboard. :D

I was in Prague two months ago, it's really marvellous place. I saw many Russian there and I was a bit surprised because of it: why it is so popular among you?

Sorry for late response. I was in the training and just got out from it. It’s too bad that I can’t meet you in person. I will be out again for that whole week. Oh well, I may see you in San Francisco. I love to go there in someday. By the way you have a great trip and have a good time in Boston and NY.

In my opinion: all on the whole world! :D I'll try to explain my astonishment in Prague: I saw there many Russian in guided tour or in school trips (they looked very young) so I started to consider if it is very convenient or very cheap or ...? Perhaps it's cool to be in Prague? :D

For my the perfect place to go of vacations is Argentine, mainly the Argentinean south, is a beautiful place, in addition it has a delicious food. I want to know to me if somebody already has visited Argentine, that another place can recommend to me?

Okay, I'm done with traveling for 2007. The trip to Vietnam in the end of this year will have to be postponed since I need to save money for France and Italy next year and a cruise to Mexico.

Vince, did you go to L.A? :?

Yes I did Lenny. Actually we went to Orange County and we stayed in the Disneyland area. We also went to Hollywood and several beaches. I really love the beach there. It’s gorgeous. Of course we ate a lot of Vietnamese food in Little Saigon. Yep, the food there is must better than the food in Boston. Wow you are going to France and Italy next year? Cool! :wink:
