The Ideal Day Out.

[Spoonboy]

Hi everyone. If money and travel was not an issue, how, and where would you spend your day?

For myself, I think that I would have breakfast withn my family on the Island of Santorini looking out onto the caldera. For Lunch, it would be a picnic at Ankor Wat where we could explore the vast temple complex, then it would be a quick skip over to Jordan to visit Petra, then to Iran and visit the palace of Persepolis, and finish the evening off with dinner looking out at the Flavian Theatre in Rome.

Thanks in advance.

Spoonboy, Spingalonga was a leper island, off the coast of Crete.

Having the freedom from distraction to read undisturbed beats globe trotting in my book society. I think I can guess what you listen to on the mp3.

Take the coastal route from Bergen to North Cape and beyond headwreck. You wont regret it.

Sorry folks, my laptop is playing up again: looks like I'll have to wait for three hours before microsoft inform me of available updates. But, on Crete Daisy, I only managed to get to the Palace of Minos. Askyourgran, I forgot about Pompeii - and you can't do that without a visit also to Herculanuem. Society, my favourite reads at the mo are Simon Scarrow's Centurion series.

"headwreck
I'd love to go cruising up the fjord's of Norway, just stand on deck and take in the view"

Have done this ^^ many times. Headwreck, find a way to do it. You'd have no regrets.

Thanks for reminding me about Pompeii - phew! that one almost got away.


Thank you all for answering. I reckon Big Ed should reward you with something for answering...

...perhaps he could come up with a spoony badge!!
