We plan to travel this August. My sister is watching our 5-month old, so we can not travel for any longer than 4night/3day (probably Sat - Tues). We can fly out of BWI or DC Dulles OR we can drive somewhere, but we don’t want to spend the whole time in transit! Some of our favorite vacations in the past have been: hiking in Montana, snorkling in the Caribbean, skiing in the Rockies, kicking back with a cold beer/margarita in a tropical climate. Places we love: coast of Maine, Southwest Colorado, Seattle, St. John V.I., Lake Placid, Senegal/The Gambia in West Africa (we were Peace Corps there), even New York City holds some great memories for us. We do NOT golf. I tell you all this to help you realize that we can be pleased by a variety of vacation spots, but not EVERYTHING pleases us. And we want this one to be extra SPECIAL, something we will remember fondly 40 years from now when we go on a vacation to celebrate turning 80. We are very EAGER to hear your suggestions.

Vancouver, British Columbia is beautiful. You can go swimming, bikeriding, take a boat tour, go kayaking, sit at a nice cafe, get food from a street vendor,etc. We had a great time there.

Have you thought about Cuenca in Ecuador? I’ve never been but am going in January. I’ve heard it’s a magnificent city.
