Hot and cold

Now that I feel a bit the summer... I start thinking of next winter holiday.
Yes, it has been decided that each year we will make a family sea holiday and a winter-time holiday only me and my half.
This morning I had a quick look around, a chat with a colleague about her dream to go to Antartica made me think of going north north north. My husband reminded me of the idea of going to Iceland though. Since it will last only 1 week or 10 days, travelling time is important to be sure we enjoy enough. And to my surprise, Iceland is closer than Svalbard.... so it is very likely going to be Iceland! Will be short but will leave space for a second visit :)
Then, I started to feel guilty that I am letting the planning of the Crete holiday lag behind. So I had a quick look on Tripadvisor for best places to visit, here is a short list
- Falasarna beach: there are for rent chairs and umbrellas, and there are bars.... so we can go there without much load from the house
- Gramvousa and Balos lagoon , better (for us) if reached from a boat that you can take in Kissamos. In fact the car trip requires to go on a white road for quite a stretch, plus walk once parked to get to the beach.

More searches will follow soon :)

Nothing

These days I am not looking for anything.

All holidays for 2012 are sorted out (sob), also from shopping point of view we are fine (we have the latest useless gadgets)...
So I do not know what to do!!!
Actually there are a few things to be done, but they are boring.... like
- start thinking/preparing the bags for the upcoming sea holiday
- pay the bakfiets
- book the car for Crete (with all the problems around Greece, I am just waiting and watching the events)
- find excursions to be done in Crete... this is normally fun, but it has the drawback of making me feel miserable when I look outside and it is raining

Then... I also would like to go camping coming weekend, but I have the feeling half of myself is planning a surprise and so I need to be patient....
and just in case that same half needs some help, I found a camping in our favourite seaside location in the Netherlands, Vlissingen. Or we could also try a new destination on the sea...
Enough dreaming for now!!!
