View Full Version : Are you holidaying?
I am at the moment trying to work out some feasible holiday plans for myself and my family. I don't want a beach holiday specifically, I just want to relax and be diverted by a different culture and surroundings, but I can find nowhere.
Everything seems to be booked up.
When did everyone else book their holiday/make their plans, and where to?

and i would recommend Rekyvyck or however you spell that...
Reykjavik? Its kinda cold..
i don't have a vacation. i can't afford to take it.
If I had to pay then I wouldn't be able to afford it either..
no i can't afford to miss work, let alone pay to go somewhere.
Turkey is always a good bet for a different but welcoming culture, there's plenty of resorts inland that are cultural rather than sun holidays.
I can't recommend Pamukale enough, it's a ruin of one of the most famous roman baths, warm fizzy water that strips your sun tan away in seconds :D
The views are breathtaking and it's in the middle of the roman empires largest necropolis with ruins aplenty.

Sounds nice, but they want to go to Eastern Europe, Sicily, Italy or Menorca.. Or alternately a vaca to South Devon/Cornwall.
(antihero) 06-03-03, 09:40 Oh, I wasn't inviting you. I was just playing along with the thread.
I've been to Rome, Venice, and Milan. Venice is incredible.

Magic Ninjet 06-03-03, 09:46 I never really got to go anywhere exotic on vacation. I went to Flordia for the first time last October. Other than that...... ummmm...... I went to Ohio once, but I don't remember it. I've been to Jersey and PA to, but I'm within an hour from both, so I don't think it counts. lol. I'm so un-cultured. Gregg lived in Germany and all over the US because his step-dad was in the service. I get to meet people from all over, though, because the town I live in is very eccletic and a big vacation spot..... espically in the fall when the leaves change.
Sounds pretty. I have been around England, to Wales, France, Germany, Belgium, The Netherlands and Spain.
Magic Ninjet 06-03-03, 09:54 Damnit........ I never get to go anywhere. All my family (Great aunts and uncles, cousins, ect.) Live in Germany and Austria. I'd love to visit there one day. But, I'm too poor right now. Damnit. :(

Shadowborn 06-03-03, 09:59 All this time I thought holiday was a noun...
We call it a vacation on this side of the pond.
Myself, I'm heading home to Hawaii for a couple weeks. It'll be fun to catch up with the family.
I know what you call it. Vacation from the french 'Vacances'.
Magic Ninjet 06-03-03, 10:05 The word holiday also means vacation, look it up. Also, they use it as such in Canada, which IS on this side of the pond. :D

Right. My point though was that vacation can be used as a verb (I'm vacationing right now). Holiday just doesn't sound right as a verb. "I'm on holiday" would work though.
