Timeframe

Hello all!

It's been a while since I posted, but I haven't forgotten! Last night we watched Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl and it made us both want to visit someplace tropical. Part of that is the 7 inches of snow we just got, I know, but it's also that the kids are getting older, and we're starting to want a vacation. So, how about it? Who's interested? Does the Caribbean sound good to anyone else? Maybe we can talk Alayne and Rich into sailing a (large) rented boat? Who's certified for diving? I know E and I would both like to go diving! (It's been over 4 years for me, and I sure miss it!!)

I know most of you are "lurkers," but it would be nice to have some more input if we're serious about doing a large family vacation. Due to Kate's recent birth (welcome, Kate, and congrats to Jen and Jason!), why don't we look at doing something in about 3 years? That gives Kate enough time to get up and running (literally), and it gives all the adults time to save for the vacation.

So, who's on board?

Second round

Due to the problems that plagued the other blog, this blog was also deleted, so Take 2. The places I have bookmarked for the vacation are as follows:

Mexico:

I believe Costa Rica was also suggested (by Amy for her dad, Robert), but I honestly don't remember. During a random thought process last spring, I realized that Costco vacations might work for us. I believe most, if not all (I think we were the last holdouts), of us are members of Costco, so we might be able to get a good deal. Let me know what you think!

Also, would people be interested in my adding their websites to this blog? Please let me know; I won't add yours until I hear from you!
