If you could go anywhere on summer vacation, where would you choose and why?

“If money wasn’t an issue, I would take a trip to Australia that included an extended layover in Hawaii. Ever since I was a kid, I have always wanted to visit Australia. I would love to see the wildlife and all of the sites. I want to go by way of Hawaii because I want to see the volcanoes, the beaches and all of the sites there as well. Must be the scientist in me; but I think that would be heavenly.”

“If I could go anywhere on summer vacation I would go to one of those little huts in the middle of a beautiful blue ocean ... Maldives, Bali, Tahiti — I am not picky! It would be warm, peaceful; my phone wouldn’t work; there would be no chores to do; and no ‘mom taxi’ duties. I love my life at home, but also love to get away and relax with a good book and fruity drink!”

“I would go to Alaska. I would like to see the Northern Lights up close. Then I’d head south to Australia because it’s somewhere Roger and I have always wanted to visit.”

“I would love to go to Greece for summer vacation. Greece is a beautiful place with a rich history, and it’s where my dad spent his last days.”
