If you could go anywhere in the world right now, absent any resource constraints or responsibilities, where would you go? One place I think would be amazing is Tanzania for a safari on the Serengeti plus a trip to Zanzibar. I realize I don't need to go to Africa to look at animals or go to a beach, but one doesn't need to go to Paris to eat French food and look at art either.

Oh right, Paris. I'd love to go back there for a week or so also. I was there in June, and I couldn't get over how friendly everyone was. A friend at a recent holiday party pointed out that probably people just wanted my money in a down economy. How cynical! He is from Egypt, and he made an analogy about how the Pyramids are like the Golden Gate Bridge, in that the locals see them from afar all the time but rarely go to the actual structures. I thought that was a brilliant analogy.

Brazil for the World Cup would be great too, but what if the sec119 household will have changed permanently by then? DOOOOOOOMMMM!!!!!! Hence, the current travel bug.
