Thursday 13

This is the second in my series of DESTINATIONS. The first part listed places to visit in Texas. Today I have a list of destinations I have been outside of Texas and when I was there.

All photos were taken by me and are the sole property of Forgetfulone.

1. Monterrey, Mexico (circa 1975) - I remember 2 things: having my picture taken on the balcony of the motel while wearing a mustard-colored shirt and a sombrero, and riding a donkey with my dad.

2. Los Angeles, CA (1982) - Drill team performance at Disneyland. We also got to go to Universal Studios, Newport Beach, and Knotts Berry Farm.

3. Nassau, Bahamas (1993) - Snorkeling in beautiful, clear blue water, sight-seeing, and shopping.

4. Winter Park, CO (2002) First and only ski vacation.

5. Cancuun, Mexico (2004) - the most beautiful beach I've ever seen at La Isla de Mujeres.
6. Belize (2004) - visiting the Altan Ha ruins.
7. Roatan, Honduras (2004) - Beautiful beaches except for the sand fleas, but depressing local life.
8. Cozumel, Mexico (2004 and 2005) - I found my happy place! It's on a private beach on a chaise lounge under a palm tree umbrella while I drink a Pina Colada and read a good book. I also went snorkeling with my sister and the kids.
9. Washington DC (1988 and 2005) - lots of walking and lots to see!

10. Grand Canyon, AZ (2008) - You can't deny God's existence when you see it. Also went to Phoenix, Sedona, National Monument, and Scottsdale.

11. Orlando, FL (most recently 2008) - all things Disney.
12. New Orleans, LA (1995 and 2009) - Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulez!
13. Las Vegas, NV (most recently in 2009) - when I turned 21, we began having annual trips, but after about 1990, we didn't go back quite as often.

Don't forget to visit Thursday 13 for more fun!
