Hi ladies. I'm looking for some ideas for my vacation coming up in August. My partner and I thought about driving across the country and then we have thought about flying out to New York and taking a cruise for 10 days.

Does anyone have any suggestions maybe on travel, must stops, etc. Also, if any of you are in the New York area what are the must sees besides the obvious. Or if any of you have been on a fantastic vacation and would like to share the destination that would be great also.

Hey Rac ~~

I'd say it depends on YOUR passions / interests.....and what your soul's are craving -- this day:) Are you up for lots of go-go-go, etc...or are you longing for some R & R?

Personally, my soul CONSTANTLY craves peace & quiet...and my passion is the ocean.....I'm 110% in love with cruising....that's just my thing......when I can't manage a cruise -- a trip to the beach suffices.....

Good luck w/your decisions! Let us know what you land on!!

Hi there. I actually used to live in NY and would go into the City (Manhattan) quiet a bit. You should definitely visit the Village, SoHo, and Chelsea districts. If you get to go to Brooklyn, Downtown area is pretty unique.Those are the ones of the top of my head. BTW cruise sounds really, really, really good. I am going back to NY to visit my family in April so i can do a little research for you :) Hope this helps you,

Funny enough the first time i was in NY i hated it. I'm from the suburbs and to me it was loud, smelly and too muggy to be healthy. I did eventually warm up and now I can see the beauty of the city- it just took a little while. anyways i think everyone should go to newyork once (or twice) to see the city.

I suggest against the driving trip, from personal experience those never tend to end too well no matter how much you love your partner. Plus you don't want to be stressed out by driving and such on your vacation.

Thanks for the replys! I just finished booking four days in New York and a seven day cruise which leaves from New York and travels to Newport, Boston, Bar Harbor, St. John, Halifax. I'm pretty excited about it. It definitely should be an adventure!

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
