If You Had The Money......

IF YOU HAD THE MONEY......

......to go anywhere in the world, and you could leave your job for a month and not get in trouble, and you could bring or leave the kids/ significant other (whichever is your prefrence), and all expenses were paid and complications resolved.... basically if you had no conflicts of interest and could go anywhere u want.... where would it be???? What would you do there???

I would go back to Xilitla Mexico, in the state of San Luis Potosi, and re-visit Xilitla house. It's this place built by Edward James, the worlds largest surrealist art collector during the time of Dali. It's this huge open air mansion that spans more than a mile into the jungle. There are tiered waterfalls that empty into pools. You can sit in a stone avocado overlooking columns and vines.... there's places specifically designed to meditate in such as a stone coffin with the imprint of a human body carved out so you can lay in it peacefully..... there's a sculpture of two 8 foot tall hands coming out of the garden. You can walk out on a giant lotus flower into a cage and down a staircase that leads to another staicase... it's like an MC Escher drawing come to life. I loved it there so so so so much. Xilitla is the town nearby and I loved it there too :-) Cheap food and cheap drinks ay carumba!!!

I stole those pix off google cause I don't have my external hard drive at the computer I am at.......

Wow! That sounds and looks really amazing. I've never heard of the place before. This bears checking out.

As for myself, at the moment, I'd love to go to Okinawa and meet the half of my relatives I have never met.

I would go to Asia, especially Japan and Taiwan & mainland China. That is all.

I'd tour Europe, I'm saving up to do just that actually.

theres a few place;s ,but Japan and China ,or Mongolia would be top of the list ,, then England,Scottland , yada yada yada......

Just give me New Orleans in the winter,

Minneapolis. I'm going in 2 weeks. No worries for at least a year. Beyond that: Ukraine for a more extended period of time. I'll do that when the time is right.

OEC

I looooove camping that's what I do every year for my birthday. I'd be so down for a BlueBlood camping trip!!!

If it's on the Left Coast scar, count me in.

hah its off the coast of vancouver BC... part of the gulf islands, its soooo pretty out there!!!! its a provincial camp site, so theres individual campsite pads, and really nice outhouses hahaa... (i dont care where i camp as long as it has an outhouse thats not infested with spiders and doesnt fall apart around me hahaa)
you take a little ferry ride over to the island and hopefully you have a ride to the campsite otherwise its a long walk hahaa... but a nice walk!!!
LETS ALL GO CAMPING!!!!!

When?

Where wouldn't I go, that's the question. So many places to see that I don't even know of until I get there...

Savannah, Santa Fe, Nova Scotia, Scotland, Cornwall, Tuscany, Greece, Helsinki, St. Petersburg, Kyoto, Bali, Hong Kong, Mongolia, Egypt (to sail down the Nile, and see the Cairo Museum, of course)... amongst others.

Cornwall, England or Cornwall, Ontario?

hah when to go camping? whenever the most people are free i guess... for whoever wants to come :D

If I had the money....

I would go to Japan, Germany and The Netherlands once again
And buy latex clothes like fucking hell, and a new camera, and a new car for my boyfriend...
And get some tattoos and more piercings! hahaha ;D

Given the chance I would tour the Far East. I've been to most other places in the world, missing out Oceania, Russia and north America, but the Far East intrigues me far more than those.
