I want to say I've been to a place called Djibouti!

Turkey would have cooperated - the US Govt. wasn't. They were a bit anxious about the security detail for the top folks in the hubby's business. *grumbles* Had we been going on our own, we would have been fine.

Oh Kenya. *shakes head*

It's such a fun name for a country.

The government always ruins everyone's fun. Grrr.

I've been to Turkey once and was so impressed. I'm dying to go back but the U.S Military (surprise surprise) is trying not to route people through there unless they absolutely have to.

But on the upside... Chile and Argentina which I've heard SO MANY good things about.

Yeah, I was pretty bummed when I heard the trip was cancelled.

BUT... Chile and Argentina got moved up, so... *shrugs* Next years 'international' trip will be to Lana'i, Hawaii. Ireland was one of the other choices. *headdesk* I'm not bitter at all about that.

*raises eyebrow* "international" trip?

Maybe back in the 50's...

Too bad they didn't go with Ireland. Not that Hawaii isn't beautiful but still!

Yeah. There's a lot of golfers in the group. *grumbles*

I know - been there already. Not to Lana'i, but still.... Ireland... could extend to London/Scotland very, very easily.... *grumbles some more*

Ugh. Golf. Most boring sport ever.

Of course, if they really wanted to Golf, they should go to Scotland. The land where golf was invented and with some of the best courses in the world. Also, the land of hot men that would work so well with your travel plans.

I think I had a post about Scottish men and their hotness awhile back. I should go revisit it and drool.

I've driven the occasional golf cart, but that's about where I'll draw the line. *grins*

*is part-Scottish and is in total agreement with you*
