So last week we looked at deciding how we were going to go on our next vacation and where to go to find out about if there are problems going to that location as well as what you need (i.e. paper work—i.e. pass ports etc)…..
Really it is a good time to do this looking and when the place you want to go is a good fit for you—-which is our next step—-if you like lush and full service you don’t want to go on a safari—– or do you:

Why Go To Bora Bora
Not all of us know exactly where we want to go—–I mean you might love westerns and all that but….then what—
there are ranch vacations
which may include some of all of these, Western-lodging and an occasional time camping out, steer roping, fishing, and as much horseback riding as you can handle, many scene sites and some offering historical destination, and some even have stagecoach and horse drawn coach rides. And don’t forget the chuck wagon dinners and campfires under the stars. And for those real Dude cowpokes—some have spas to relax after all that activity. If you can only go in winter look for one that offers indoor riding adventures.
So it may be a good idea to see you and any one going with you want to see and then check for places on line—make a list —easy done online for each location……and what you want to do, see or experience doing the visit—what type of food do you want
It all depends on what you’re looking for for those bucks

How to Vacation Like a Royal
Of course if it’s a group of 2 or three then you might take your Favorites
Say a trip to Paris with 3 people with interests in sport, art and the revolution.
You could visit in July—14th for instance which marks Bastille Day which is a celebration of the beginning of the Revolution and on the 146th there are big outdoor military parades, music not to mention fire work displays and I’m sure you could find much more to tie into that given it’s celebration time.
The Tour de France—Is also in July and Paris is the Start of the Race and it is said to be an impressive sight and an event for Paris.
and if you can’t find art museums and venues in Paris maybe you should rethink going anywhere beyond your yard for vacation.

The illustrated Book of Deer from here is now at the Cambridge library. The road that passes the abbey site has often been the site of an appearance of a monk dressed in dark robe and hood but with a blurry face.
