It's summer time! Summer is a good time to travel around the world for vacation. I like travel a lot, yet I don't have enough money to travel. Travel is a great way to relax and to free your mind. If I have money, I definitely will travel as much as possible. I also miss my country alot too. Originally, I came from China. In China, there are so many places to go, such as Beijing, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Fujian, and Shang Hai. I wish I can go to China this year 2008, because I want to see Beijing Olympic. But the truth is I can't. Nevertheless, I wish Beijing Olympic goes well. I will cheer for it!

I love traveling to different places. It's the best way to learn about the place and its people. I would love to visit China one day, but there are so many places to go that I don't think I could really appreciate them all. I suppose if I did make it there, I would visit the Great Wall, even though I suppose its full of tourists and I like to travel to places which are not tourist attractions. This year I will be going to Niagara Falls through the Canadian side, which I hope will be a very beautiful and relaxing time for me and my family. I hope the Olympics go well also. It will be a refreshing change from constant bad news around the world. [di1159]
Well, this year you will be going to Niagara Falls through the Canadian side. I wish I can travel this year, unfortunitely, I don't have enough money to travel. I am very upset. [ml2blog]

Wow, during summer, you have exams. That's bad news for you! [ml2blog]
I'm a traveler myself..coz I do own my travel agency but its not more on pleasure but rather more on a business side..I'd been in so many places, like Europe, and some countries in south America besides of course in SoutheastAsia...yes I do agree with you that traveling is a away of relaxing and educating yourself ,especially this season if you will travel to Europe..speaking of Olympic for sure a lot of people will always looking forward with..please do your best to be there too..I'm planning to be there in Beijing this Olympic time even for 3 days only...keep me posted in what places you visited..pls do share ur experience... [janebernal]
Well, you've been so many places, and you also planning to go to Beijing for Olympic. I have visited only few places, I am shame about it. The place I have visited are New York, PA, New Jersey, Maryland, China, and Atlantic City. I wish I can travel to Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Shanghai. [ml2blog]
I am spoiled by living in Southern California. In the summertime I definately want to go to the nice family beaches out here with my family! My kids love making sand castles, getting in the water, and my husband and I enjoy the peacefulness and scenery! We can stay there ALL DAY LONG! There's also Seaworld, the Zoo, Disneyland, etc.! If we could travel I'd want to go to Orlando for a week or Hawaii. But definately beach scenery! [jashley1]
I love beaches, but I scare of wearing swimming suit. [ml2blog]
first i will go to the most beautiful beach here in our country (Philippines), the Boracay beach resort. then i would love to visit HongKong Disneyland and go straight to Singapore to take a tour. i have many plans in travelling but what i love most is going to Japan to visit universal Studios which i haven't try yet. Happy posting and have a great day!! :) [blueberry053178]
I see. Most people like to go to Japan for some reasons. In my understanding, most people travel to Japan because Japan is a high tech country and a beautiful place. I think I may travel to Japan in some day, but just don't know when. Good suggestion. [ml2blog]
I want to travel on japan next week. I heard that they have a sakura festival on sommer. I think its beautiful. By he way, china is nice too, I think im going to visit china one day. I heard the scenary in there is beautiful and the people in there is busy for prepare olympic games. I hope you can be my guide. will you? just kidding:) [canggihadiyasa]
come on , you dont have to be jealous, if you dont have a money to going abroad, you can visit place on your owm country like the great wall or etc. [canggihadiyasa]
yes summer time is here but the price of gas is so high i think this year i will stay at home.Dont get me wrong I would love to go on a vacation but the air flights are also high in price this year. And you ALSO have to pay a price for your luggage. [babystar1]
Right, the airflights price is high this year, especially if you want to travel to China. [ml2blog]
Well it's winter here and the only plaxce i want to travel to is in front of the heater with a cup of hot chocolate! If it was summer here, I would probably want to go down the coast to the beach. I would like to stay in a resort or small motel and just hang out at the beach every day and visit cafes and restaurants. [coffeeshot]
Haha, you are so humor. I believe you have a good writing skill and talent. [ml2blog]
ooohh my husband and i love travelling! the ultimate goal is to visit all the 7100 islands of our country, the Philippines. we've been to most of the commonly visited tourist spots (Boracay, Bohol, Palawan, Davao, etc) and we will be visiting Camiguin Island in two weeks. Aside from the Philippines, we want to visit Australia and do the Japan-Korea cruise of Star Cruises. :) [jasanne]
Wow, I think you love islands very much. You even know there are 7100 islands in your country. I want to visit Australia too. I also want to visit Korea, Japan, and China. I really love traveling. [ml2blog]
If I had enough money to travel anywhere I wanted. I would want to be able to take my parents, my two daughters, their husband and fiance, and my granddaughter and grandson. We would take a trip down to Virginia to visit my sister. Then we would take a trip to New Hampshire. I would like to go to the French-Canadian genealogy society to look up some info on my Montigny history. Then take the Hobo railroad and have lunch on the train. Maybe go to Cark's Trading Post and let the kids see the bears. And go to the drive-in movies at Weirs Beach. It would also be great to travel to some of the areas my ancestors came from. France, England, Amsterdam. But considering my money I'll be lucky if I can afford a couple days away some where. [isaiah12]
Wow, you really make a plan for this summer. You are very organized person, aren't you? For me, I love to take a trip to Korea, Japan, and China. If travel to domestic countries of United States, I will go to California, Florida, Las Vegas, and San Francisco. But, first, I need to save my money! [ml2blog]
i love to go California someday it is a great place for me..hope so i can travel there, but there is a big problem, i dont have enough money to travel..and i know it would'nt come true..how i wish!!! [buzzer88]
Really, same as me. Don't have enough money to travel is very limit us to take travels. I believe it would come true in someday. All you have to do is save money from now on. [ml2blog]
I would like to go to Finland. It is very cold over there and it would be a good place to relax in this horrible hot summer. I have also heard tht Finland is a beautiful place, a place with evergreen forests. It isa peaceful place, a place of friendly people. [kangallo]
Although I don't know where Finland is, I believe it is a nice and beautiful place to visit. [ml2blog]
It is really great to travel in summer time. I would love to visit PARIS and LONDON as these places are cool to visit in summer time. Though it would be great to travel in our own Himalays. [sumann]
Wow, you would love to have a trip to visit Paris and London this summer time. Are you already planning to? [ml2blog]
Boracay to swim , walk along the beach,dive,shop in the bazars and party [asawanialvin0611]
Well, my husband and I do not have much we are going to do this summer, due to we want to go to NYC, etc. again next yr. since next yr. is our 10 yr. Wedding anniversary and also is my husbands 50th next yr. as well. But I think we are going to go to Coure DeLaine, Id and Silverwood Theme Park for a couple of days just to get away. Hopefully we can sell our condo before we go as well to make it easier to be able to afford to do this as well. [KrauseHome]
New York City is very great state within United States, but the only bad thing about New York City is that it has too many people walk down the streets at the same times, what I mean is that New York City has over population than PA. I would love to visit New York City even though it is too many people in that city. It's good place to visit. I just went back from New York City to PA yesterday. [ml2blog]
my graduation gift from my mom is to go to hong kong, actually that's been my gift a long time ago and it's been delayed way too much coz of my mom's time and lack of money before, it's finally pushing through! it's gonna be my first out of the country trip! except i want it to be delayed now coz i really wanna watch the beijing olympics! they were having this promo in mcdo to go to beijing and i kinda joined...lol but no luck...sad [chivolaski]
Hong Kong is one of my favorite places, I want to go to Hong Kong ever since I was 14. Maybe because I watched too many Hong Kong movies and dramas. I also want to visit Taiwan because I like to watch Taiwan movies and dramas. I want to go to places that I have see in movies and dramas in Taiwan. I also really want to go to Beijing this summer for cheering Olympic. I also want to go to Korea because I love Korean people, movies, drama, music, TV shows, and places. But it will not come true this summer. [ml2blog]
i too love travellin a lot........have travelled to most of india...the country wer i live......been to london too...bt these days being busy in studies......ther is no such summer vacation........so no travellin..:( [manavsi1234]
You still have studies in summer! Which school you went to? How come school didn't give the summer vacation. I think you should change your school. Anyway, good luck! [ml2blog]
Travel and cost is a concern. I don't think we will be able to afford it. It is a real shame. Even here at home certain things are getting out of our price range. Like the cost of a ball game. Hopefully things will get better. Until then the travel channel on cable will have to do. [ersmommy1]
I know, the price of airline tickets, the price of living in hotel, the price of services, the price of meals, the price of transportations, and the price of products, all going to raise their prices. For poor people, they couldn't afford even a small trip. For people in middle, they could only afford a small trip. For rich people, they could afford but no time to travel. I think you got what I am saying. [ml2blog]
I've just been to a hillstation called as Shimla here in India. The trip was awsome. It really feels great when you travel to new places. All new people , new roads , different weather everything totally different. That refreshes your mind just like it did to mine. [blue4ever]
Really! I believe you have a wonderful and great summer time. Aren't you? Traveling really refreshes our mind and relaxes our body. I love travel very much. [ml2blog]
Our family loves to travel, but we are definitely feeling a crunch with the gas prices being near $4.00/gallon. We have decided to visit every park in the two park systems right here in our area (there are at least 20 or so between the two). We also plan to focus on our own state of Ohio. Day trips instead of overnight trips will help the budget a great deal. If we had the choice of places to travel and money was no object, I'd visit Ireland, England and Australia for sure! [susanh39]
Yeah, I know. The gas prices raise too hight. But if you lucky, you can take your friends car to travel. [ml2blog]
My most favorite place in Mackinac Island Michigan they don't allow cars there, it's horses and bicycles or foot. It,s an awesome place! [tdemex]
I love to ride a horse and bicycle. I remember when I was in high school in China, I ride bicycle everyday to school. I built a relationship between bicycle and me. Although I haven't ride a horse in the past, I wish I have the chance to take a ride with horse in someday. [ml2blog]
I'm already traveling, since I am from Portugal and am working in Hungary for 6 months. Probably will have 2 weeks vacation on July and will try to use them to visit the neighbor countries, maybe Romania and who knows what else :) [isegor]
we shouldn't rush things :) I like to enjoy every step of the way, that's why I like to walk slow. the good this is I always remember almost all of the details from my journey :D if you already know what you want don't be afraid and ask people that can tell you what you "should" do to be best positioned to achieve your goals [isegor]
I am planning to go to a hill station this summer so that we can get some relief from the heat and at the same time enjoy. We would select the place keeping in mind that our children too enjoy being there with us and there are enough activities that interest them too. Like sight seeing,wildlife santuary, water parks, snowfall, ropeways etc. [limcyjain]
You really believe in religion, right? United States of America is religion-free country. In some other countries, the government will prevent people to believe in certain religions. Anyway, it's nice go take meditation in a hill station. [ml2blog]
