This is the time of year when people are planning their vacations.  So I thought I would share a few of our favorite vacations.

Here we go.

First- The Grand Canyon:

In 2003 Rich, Brooke and I went to the Grand Canyon with my parents and my two brothers.  It was amazing.

If you have never seen the Grand Canyon in person you can not comprehend how spectacular it is by looking at pictures.  You just have to see it in person.

After seeing the Grand Canyon we went to Las Vegas and visited all of the hotels, saw lots of shows and ate lots of food.

And did a little relaxing by the pool.

And we saw a real, live cactus.  At the airport in Las Vegas.

Next- Rich and I took a cruise in 2004.

We took a Carnival Cruise to Key West, FL and to Cozumel Mexico and It was wonderful!  Cruises are an excellent vacation choice.

One of the things that amazed me was the color of the water in the ocean.  I just love this color blue.

Third- a trip to Disney World in 2004.

Rich, Brooke and I took a trip to our favorite vacation destination in 2004.  We love everything about Disney World!

And a trip to Disney World in 2007:

And Disney World in 2009:

It’s definitely time for me to start planning our vacation for this summer.  Last summer we took a trip to Florida and went to Disney World.  In the past we have gone to Disney every other year, but we just can’t wait a whole extra year to go again.  So we’re hoping to go this year in late summer or early fall.

So, I think the perfect time to take a trip to Florida will be at the end of September or the beginning of October.  And since Kissimmee is sooooo close to Disney World that would be a great place to stay for our trip.  We could spend a few days at Disney, go to Universal and Sea World too.  And of course do a little bit of relaxing.  I also love the dinner shows like Medieval Times and there is great shopping too.  And everything is so close to Kissimmee that it makes perfect sense to stay there.

What would we want to see while in Kissimmee?

It’s so hard to believe that 10 years ago at this time I was busy planning our wedding.  It seems like the last 10 years have flown by and I can’t figure out where all of the time went.  Since it’s been 1o years Rich and I have been trying to come up with something special to do to celebrate our 10th anniversary.  So far we haven’t come up with any ideas.

Today I was looking for ideas and I found some information about visiting St. Augustine.  I have never visited there but it looks like there are some great, romantic packages for really reasonable prices.  I really like the Ponte Verda Beach Resorts that start at $169 per night- it looks so nice and is right on the beach.  We would definitely have to spend some time relaxing on the beach, going golfing (Rich anyways), doing some shopping and of course eating some delicious food. I have never had a massage, so I think this would be on my list of things to do!

I’m having lots of fun thinking of places to go and things to do.  I can’t wait to celebrate 10 years!  Make sure you visit http://www.romanceliveshere.com/ to plan your own trip.
