Do pop in for a dance Forte, if there's anything on and if you have the timeOriginally Posted by Forte
So...where are we all going for our hols? I had an amazing time cycling in the south of France near Avingnon last summer and this year I am going to the island of Arran (Scotland in miniature) for four days and then flying down to Bristol to stay with relatives for two nights. Let me enjoy some vicarious pleasure by reading about your hols (near future or just past) this summer.

Sunny Scotland
Well last year was great - a week in Crete with an MJ theme - my first introduction to MJ. But so far this year - a conference in Coleraine next week (which I am helping to organise so hardly a holiday!) and of course Southport and BFG in Sep Sorry, not very exotic, hoping to get a week in the sun later in the year.
You're joking aren't you Lynn - how much more exotic could you get?Originally Posted by Lynn

Already had my summer hols......way back in April .....
Had a lovely week in Los Angeles, staying on the Queen Mary 1 at Long Beach. It's now a floating Hotel, and is still in all it's 1930s art deco splendour. Then a week in sunny Las Vegas. took in the Viva Las vegas rockabilly weekender, and saw some fantastic bands, including the original Teenagers (Frankie Lymons band) and an amazing Doo Wop band from London called The Extraordinaires....they make the Jive Aces look like amateurs.. Also went io see the Grand Canyon and tried to see as much as I could on the Strip....Amazing place. Hope to go back sometime.......perhaps if my lottery Nos come up....

And a 40 s dance http://www.leroc-in-bristol.co.uk/Ev....htm#ELR_1940s
I'm sooooo jealous! I love Las Vegas - have been twice now. Which hotel did you stay in? If you win the lottery and decide to go back please will you take me with you??? pretty please?!Originally Posted by Dance Demon
I find that when I tell people I like Las Vegas many of them turn their noses up - without actually having been there themselves - do you find the same thing? It really annoys me!
Dead weekend in Bristol? That's what you think! I will make sure it is not dead wherever I end up.
Me too - had my hols earlier this year (May). One week in Las Vegas - because a very dear friend of mine was having his wedding there. I thought I wouldn't much care for the place, but I absolutely loved it and we are already planning to go back. We explored the Strip until we were ready to drop - and took in an amazing Cirque du Soleil show.Originally Posted by Sparkles
I saw this 2 years ago and have booked to see it again in January at the Albert Hall!Originally Posted by Divissima
It was the most amazing, awe inspiring show I've ever seen! I couldn't recommend it highly enough!
Well, I've been a lucky girlie so far this year, I was in the Dominican Rep for Xmas and the New year, lovely and relaxing! Bognor in Jan, not so relaxing! Camber in April, Ibiza in May and Sicily in June!
AND Scotland..here we come in Sept!

Silly me, of course! Actually I'm quite happy doing several dancing weekends away this year instead of a 'big' holiday - and then pop off for a cheap week in the Canaries in the winter.Originally Posted by Sheena
Did you see 'O' at the Bellagio?Originally Posted by Divissima
I went to see that and loved it - how those people do what they do I'll never know!
Yes, that was the show we saw. Just amazing...Originally Posted by Sparkles
Windsurfing
I was on holiday for the last week of June and the first week of July in Kefalos on the greek island of Kos. It was a windsurfing holiday.
The wind gods were very kind and there was only one day when I couldn't have got planing !
In fact, on one day the gusts were up to Force 9 !
The trouble is that I now need another holiday to recover from all my exertions !
If anyone else out there is interested in windsurfing then I would recommend that they visit Kefalos.
Sort of off topic, but I phoned my hairdressers today - have been for ages - to be told that my usual stylist no longer works there! Been going to her for years, she was really good - what am I going to do!
