This week is
NEW YEAR
I am kind of an impromptu girl, so you can see, I never make any New Year resolution in my life, this time is a little different though.....
I do wish that in
2014
to do a bit more traveling
{Photo edited with picmonkey}
Both my husband and I love to travel, there were years that we literally live in our suitcases, I never pack or unpack my bag, it just sit there and I throw in clothes for the particular trip and that's it, everything else is in the bag and I can leave in an hour notice, which is a lot of time how we traveled.
In 2013, we went to Phoenix, Arizona in January
Took a little weekend get-away in San Diego in March, where we stayed right by the water and watched the sunset in the evenings
and then late March, early April, we go around the big ball, first stop is San Francisco, I don't know how many times I have been to San Francisco but cable car seems like a must.
and then we flew across the Pacific Ocean to our 2nd stop - Singapore, where I get to see my family, happy time!
3rd stop - Bangkok, Thailand, I love Thai people, they are just very peaceful and polite people.
4th stop - Chiang Mai is the highlight of this trip, I always wanted to see rice paddy, and wanted to visit Chiang Mai, I finally "talked" my husband into going to a remote place like Sukantara Resort, and guest what, he LOVES it! and we never stop talking about going back to Chiang Mai!
5th stop is Paris, of course we have to do Paris!
and then across the Atlantic Ocean back to New York City, to see Dolce who studied there, this is the famous flat iron building in NYC
In May, we went to San Diego once again, it was a perfect get-away
In June, we missed Sukantara Resort so much, so we want a relaxing holiday by the stream, we went to Sedona, Arizona.
Early July, Dolce is home for summer break, but Clare stayed on campus to worked, she is an RA in her college, so Dolce and I drove to see her and spent some Mother-daugthers time in Valencia, CA.
Late July early August, Dolce and I make a trip to Europe to see my girlfriend Ann, who lives in Grafing, Germany
I met Oliva, Ann's friend and we went to Rosenheim together
also spent a day in Munich
and then Dolce and I moved on to Vienna
and Prague
In September, hubby and I went to San Francisco again, where I get a chance to do a hike with my friends, it was awesome!
Papi came into our lives in mid September, but my son Lione was able to watch him while we were gone, so we made a trip to Aspen, Colorado, a trip I have been long waiting for....
we moved on to Denver to watched a baseball game, Rockies played Cardinals
and then you pretty much can guess, I was home-bound with Papi, until my brother-in-law and his wife came visit us, we took them to Zion National Park and leave Papi at home with Lione again.
I am not complaining, I know I have been fortunate and blessed with lots traveling in 2013, perhaps I was a gypsy my previous life, and I just want to keep moving...... with Papi, long distance traveling might be hard to come by as I am not sure how long I can bear not to see him, he is a part of our daily life now and leaving him for a weekend is hard, let alone weeks... but somewhere in my heart, I still have a tiny wish, I hope to go back Singapore to see family in the new year, and make a trip to Japan again, maybe besides Tokyo, I want to see Kyoto or Osaka, and then maybe Budapest. Do you think is possible huh? 2014!!!!!
Alright, this is sort of a year in review on my traveling part, it is good for me to look back and remind myself again and again, what a blessed life I have.
Ok friend, what you have in mind for 2014
Come share with us
