travel and leisure

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy

No beer and no TV makes Homer somethin somethin... "go crazy?" I don't mind if I do!

What do you like to do in your spare time, where do you like to go on vacation? Where have you gone? Where do you want to go? Where would you suggest visiting? Anything related to travel and leisure can be posted here.

Remember mates, life isn't all work

I plan to go next weekend to vacation in the North of Israel - no specific place, but in
general it involves going through nature, feeling the landscape and sleeping in tents!
spare time? computer games and reading are two of the habits of course...

wow, lots of questions!!!!

spare time = spending time with g/f, playing on GT4 (well playstation in general but addicted to GT4 at the mo), going to the cinema, concerts, playing football, walking along the seafront , etc

holiday, this year we just had a few days out, visited some nice villages and a castle. Wanted to go abroad somewhere hot but can't afford it right now !

I spend my free time surfing, acting and playing bass. I used to play XBox a bit but I got bored with video games and I really have no time for them. My free time is also when I accomplish my programming projects.

For travel, last summer the wife and I spent a month in Spain and Italy. This year we're off to Hawaii for Christmas. I've been to pretty much every state in the U.S. and every province in Canada. Also Iraq, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, England, Australia, Japan and New Zealand for work. I'd say my favorite place is either Italy or Australia. I had a lot of fun in both places. But I enjoy travelling so I had fun everywhere. I really want to visit Scotland, Ireland, and Greece.

I really love Spain, I've been numerous times and the country never dissapoints. My wife, the kids and myself are going back in May next year - athough the way the law is going in this country, I may get into trouble for taking the oldest out of school during term time - I would like to visit Seattle and New York, perhaps even a coast to coast trip from NYC to SEA.

My job takes up most of my time, I program E-Ticketing apps for travel companies and come home exhausted most days.

As for leisure I enjoy footie (a lot) and support a team called Glasgow Rangers.

What free time I have is taken up by either DIY (we've just moved into a new house and it needs a lot of work), tuning into this forum (I like my daily fix) and the remaining is spent watching TV.

I know exactly what you mean!!! Never seems to end!

Yeah, LOL, I know as soon as I;ve got the house in order, my better half will use the phrase "Don't you think its time we freshened up this room"

how come you were in all those places and not in the Holy Land?

I was suppose to go but the other guy took the trip. He spent about a month there. I'd definately like to visit someday. So much history!

indeed, and most of this history can be seen in the 3,000 y/o capital city.

Which is better, Venice, Florence, or Rome?

Bah, I hate traveling.....
