Hi everybody
How you doing?
Hope you’re having a good summer.
I’m just back from a lovely week in
Corfu. A place I went to a lot as a teen,
but hadn’t been back to in 36 years!
It hasn’t changed a bit. Fantastic.
Anybody been anywhere nice? Any holiday destination suggestions?

I went to Corfu as a teenager too! My brother and I got so drunk on, not Ouzo, the other one? I decided to try to swim to the mainland and my brother dug himself a hole on the beach because he thought that would make him feel better. Our sister had to pay two massive German guys to fling us over their shoulders and dump us in a taxi, where we taught the driver to sing the Jeely Piece song. Good times.

Hi Dougie! Your holiday sounds absolutely wonderful. I’d love to travel too, but I’ve been so busy lately — hopefully I’ll have some time later this year. I went to Dalian in China back in January, and it was actually my first time seeing snow! It also has a beautiful coastline, a bit like my hometown but even more stunning. The seafood there was amazing. Highly recommend!

Hi Dougie! I’m fine I’m doing well! It’s sunny, but the real summer vacation is still to come, and the best place to go is the beach. I’ve watched this place evolve from a wild, deserted, and idyllic beach that hardly anyone knew about into a tourist hotspot that looks more like a small, artificial set far removed from the actual locals. It’s interesting to just sit and observe the tourists’ habits.

Hi Dougie!
Corfu sounds relaxing. 🙂
I took a 700 mile solo roadtrip down from Minnesota to Kentucky, following Dave Matthews Band, family research, aaaand an insane storm cell. I took a pitstop to visit Billy Corgan’s tea house near Chicago. As it was a music themed trip, I tried to go to Paisley Park in Minneapolis but was there the one day of the week they’re closed 🤦♀️.
I bet six states in a week is nothing to you all, with decades of touring, but I’m maybe still tired from my trip. 😂 Deffo worth it!

Hi Dougie! It’s on my list of the (many) places to visit.😎 And that’s rare to find places that don’t change with time. Lovely to hear. Nothing to recommend that you prolly haven’t already seen.

Dougie! Absolutely read that in your voice 😆 Let’s see, suggestions, suggestions..hmmm… have you checked out London, Paris, Glasgow, Inverness, Edinburgh? Kidding, kidding, those are the only places I’ve been outside of the states. Heading back to Scotland in late October for my 50th and Samhainn (you all are invited 😁) then onto Wales. That’s it, that’s all I’ve got

Hey Dougie boy! I went there I think 3 years ago, really lovely
I’m not a big fan of summer holidays since I love rain and cloudy weather so I can suggest Iceland or Norway. My favourite is always Scotland though 😉 -

Lucky you Dougie!! I need a holiday to! (Scotland is in my plans in 2027).
I spend time in Corfu in 2024, was one of my favorite city’s this year.
Of course I recomend you a very nice place, in Chile 🇨🇱 we have so many.
If you prefer hot weather, San Pedro de Atacama (north) is like live in Mars , the most dry desert in the planet, or Valle del Elqui, the sky is pure and full of stars.
If you prefer cold wheather, Laguna San Rafael o Torres del Paine. Mountain,lakes, and good beer.
If you prefer somethings in the midle, the coast of the Ocean Pacific are good option to. Very pleasant sea breeze.
If you prefer the big city, welcome back to Santiago!!. “Mi casa es su casa”,literally ! 😉😎🇨🇱.
Cheers!🫶
Lucy
