Also - my husband has MS - and his mobility isn't as great as it was even when we were in Germany a couple of years ago. Still - there is one trip I want to take. I want to do a RTW trip always going west (minimal jet lag). Hitting some cities I've always wanted to see/explore. Like Hong Kong - Singapore - Moscow - etc. The Singapore Airlines RTW trip (first class) is very high on my list. Am not sure we'll be able to do it this year - but - fingers crossed - maybe late this year - or in 2011.
Also - my husband - for reasons unknown to me - wants to go to the Iowa State Fair this summer. Told him that if he agreed to eat 3 fried things on a stick (I don't think he's ever eaten a fried thing on a stick) - I'll plan the trip.
I would also like to go to Toronto again (perhaps this summer). I have been waiting forever for the new FS in Toronto to open - but - at the rate it's been going - reckon I might be dead by the time it's finished! Robyn
Your RTW trip sounds great
Robyn,be sure to plan it here on FT if you go ahead with it. As for the Iowa state fair,I'm sure you will find someone to help you and good luck with that!
As for me, its London next for fashion week. Staying at Covent Garden Hotel.
