Who wants to go to Belize with me next January?
I'm dead serious. I've already started socking away money. Tomorrow I am buying a few books on it, so I can research the country and then figure out where I want to go. This is exactly what I did before Costa Rica and it worked out great, so I don't see why this method won't work either. I'm thinking an 11 day trip like Costa Rica. Should be just about right. I've got a year to save, and I'm trying to get Brian on board, but he has less of an adventurous spirit then I do. Well maybe its just that he is more cautious than I am. Not a bad thing, he keeps me grounded in reality. And I drag him on adventures. I forgot to mention that we went flightseeing in Maui. Not really scary, but it was freaking rad. (Betcha haven't heard that word in awhile. ;)) We toured over the mountains, and waterfalls and it was just gorgeous. I'm still working on getting those pics up, and it will happen at some point soon. I was thinking the next adventurous thing I would like to do is parasailing. So maybe I will do that in Belize. It was crazy, I was looking at that while we were in Maui, and I was also looking at this doors off helicopter tour, which I was dying to go on, but just couldn't justify the cost. Then I stumbled on hang gliding and yeah, it just went on and on. Maybe I'm more of an adrenaline junkie than I realized. ;)
I've got the travel bug BAD. It was lying dormant just at the surface, but this trip to Maui woke it up, and its becoming this addiction. This is one reason why I am worried about having kids. I know, pretty selfish reason. I just am SO happy with the way my life is right now. Just me and Brian in our cute little house, socking money away for retirement and kids college funds, and vacation money. But no kids to actually have to feed and take care of. Ugh, I dunno. There are these two sides to me that are in constant battle. I ADORE children. I want children, I long for a child of our own. But then the other half kicks in and says my nieces and nephew are enough right now, and I'm freaked about raising a child, and having a child would interrupt our little idyllic world right now. Sometimes I really do think God is going to have to strike me pregnant for me to have a child. I can't seem to force myself to actually start trying to have a kid. For all the above reasons, and many more reasons that I keep hidden deep in my heart that only my husband knows.
Wow, this is quite the rambling post. I'm a little buzzed on my favorite wine, I must admit. No reason, I just love a good glass of red wine. And it sounded yummy with dinner so I had some. And then I had some more. Yeah yeah, I know.... ;)~ Too much of a good thing can be bad, or something like that.
K, I think I should stop rambling and......do something else.
