Wanderlust

Ever since I returned from my yearly trip to Oak Park, Illinois, I have been suffering from wanderlust lusting.  The urge to travel has suddenly become very strong.  I have always had my list of places I still want to visit and those I want to return to. 

After reading Dan Brown's novel 'Inferno' I have a strong desire to return to Florence and Venice, Italy.  It would be nice to visit and be able to enjoy it as a seasoned adult, not a starry-eyed 20-something.

The Rijksmuseum has finally reopened in Amsterdam and that, along with Bruges, Belgium are also on my list.  I had actually never considered Bruges until I saw the film, 'In Bruges'.  The scenery was exquisite.

Then there is the two-week stay in Germany I have long considered.  Or a train trip through Switzerland.

Closer to home is a stay in Santa Fe, New Mexico or one in the Canadian Rockies.

I'll keep browsing the travel sites and try to make a decision soon.  The summer is slipping away and soon fall will be here, so I need to make my plans.

If you could go anywhere, where would you go?

  1. I've always wanted to go to China and Japan. I am unlikely to do so now, but.... Being from England, I would like to revisit various parts of Europe too.
