I'm going to Reno:rolleyes:

Badda-Bing! :D

Alaska cruise in May, and possibly Bahamas in June

Let's all get together in the New Year and we can share our Lima/MP trip thoughts. Was probably the most amazing trip we've taken.

Provence and Barcelona in April. Our kid's partners have never been to Europe, so I'm taking the whole bunch over. Last few days buying tickets, renting AirBnB places - I really like doing that.

It's a pay-it-forward. My father-in-law sponsored a lot of travel for us when we were younger. My turn now.

Where I want to go is Vietnam, Vancouver, Croatia, Hokkaido, St Petersburg...never ending list.

that might be one of my most amazing trips. that trip was sensory overload. i even got a local lady to teach me how to make Pho. she runs a cooking school. we made the friggen noodles from scratch! she typically doesnt teach Pho, but i begged. it doubled the length of the class. she took us to a local "farmers market" i saw veggies that were unrecognizable. animals too!!

We did a 2 week family tour of Vietnam this April, did our own thing using internal rail and flights to hop down the whole country from north to south.

Really enjoyed it, great country with friendly people.

Below is our plan if you're interested, we tend to cover a lot when we go on holiday

We went to Bali this year. We stayed in Kuta, ubud, and Candidasa. If you’re looking for a young crowd, surfing, and bars you’d like Kuta but it was too crowded for me. Ubud was very beautiful with nice food, resorts, and outdoor activities but still a little crowded. Getting farther out like Candidasa was more to my liking. You don’t have the fine dining of the more touristy places but it’s more laidback and there’s lots to see and do.

What I found most interesting about it was how deceiving the street view of most places are. Even the most unassuming restaurant could have the most beautiful terraced interior. And buy something at the airport so when you enter Bali your smallest bill isn’t 100,000 from the airport ATM (about $10)

Flights are booked. Look out land of the long white sheep...er cloud, here we come. Bhaaaaaaaaaaa!

Arkansas?

I really want to do a Europe MotoGP trip but can't decide which venues to attend. Some loved Barcelona, others hated it. Assen is too darn wet, been to England a dozen times. Italy? Portugal? Maybe do Mugello and Barcelona back to back.

I can recommend Mugello, great location and viewing of the track

I am going to Shanghai and really hoping to make it to Sichuan province to both eat (really want to get some street food ideas) and visit the Crystalline Turquoise Lake in the Jiuzhaigou National Park.

UK in April, perhaps a hop over to Paris for the day.

Hey hey hey, when you come here fella? You come to Wellington eh?

And no sheep jokes - just because our sheep are better looking than your sheep...

Back to Paris for the first time in 20 years for a big composites show, JEC...we are displaying one of our UAS there with a composites company called Chomarat.

In 2015 we won the "Innovative New Aircraft" with our Kitty Hawk. I didn't go last time.

We are taking a new design this year.

I’m doing BVI again in March, my 6th.

I actually imagine it to be really fun since it will be a little more “rustic” than usual. They need the business too.

Scotland in the summer. Flying to Edinburgh, spend a couple days and take a train trip around the country. Looking forward to drinking a lot of Scotch along with some distillery tours. Hoping to find something new to bring home. :)
