Aloha Friday #70

Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

My question is:

Where’s the last place you visited while on vacation?

  2. Abby says:

    We went to San Diego at the end of October. My husband had a conference there so we all went a few days early and the G-man and I got to spend 4 days there with him. It was great!

  3. pam says:

    Great Wolf Lodge for a few days after Christmas. Does that count as a vacation?

  4. Kelly says:

    We went to San Francisco, actually I met my husband there because he was there on business. So we travelled around San Fran and went up to Sonoma to the wine country. But our last big vacation was to your beautiful Hawaii – Kauai and Maui – absolutely gorgeous!

  5. Just Mom says:

    Honolulu.

    I miss it (and my parents) tremendously.

    *sniff*

  6. Renee says:

    the last place we visited while on vacation was Knotts Berry Farm. but we also saw Disneyland & American Girl Place while we were there in So CA. DD had a blast.

  7. The last real vacation that hubby and I took was six years ago before we had kids. We are going to Walt Disney World with the boys this spring :)

  8. Seriously not awake here (thought I typed the place too). We went to Las Vegas on that last trip.

  9. VEGAS for my 30th birthday in October- with 4 of my best girlfriends. It was FABULOUS!

  10. Louise says:

    We went to the beach in Washington, Ocean Shores Three years ago.

  11. Jen says:

    We took a Disney cruise to the Bahamas and Castaway Cay. It was lovely!

  12. Does a stay-cation at home count? My SIL took the kids for a week. All 3 of them!

  13. VeRonda says:

    Hi!!

    Well, the last place was LA… we actually just got back a couple weeks ago. We went for Hubby’s BDay! We had a blast. Internationally was Mexico… it was such a beautiful place (and, great food).

  14. Disney World! And that is my next vacation, too!

  15. Vicki says:

    Washington, D.C.

  16. Sarah says:

    My last vacation was a long weekend in Vegas. I can’t wait to take another vacation, but we’ll wait until the babies are a bit older.

  17. Krista says:

  22. On my last real vacation we took Big Brother (who was then an only child) to Sesame Place. It was so much fun. We are hoping to go again for a day this summer.

  23. We had a family vacation last November on Marco Island, Florida. I’m not a huge fan of Florida, but I really did enjoy this little island, so peaceful and quiet.

  24. hmmm the last REAL vacation we had was three years ago. we went to baguio city then sidetripped to la union beach to watch surfers.

  25. it sounds like you’re asking us not where we went for vacation, but where we went while on vacation. so i’ll put my answer this way…

    last vacation was to california for Christmas and the last place we visited while there were the tide pools.

    had you asked this question next week, my answer would be different since i’m leaving tomorrow for a mini-vacation.

  26. Starbucks . . . while in the Great Smokey Mountains.

  27. Heather says:

    Would you believe my last vacation was actually to my new home? … How lame is that?! :-)

    The Blue Ridge Mountains in Northern Georgia. Beautiful!

  29. Jenn(ifer) says:

    My last actual vacation-vacation was to the Bahamas on a cruise. However, I’ve taken a couple of weekend trips to the beach in Fl.

  30. What is this “Vacation” you speak of, and how can I get one? LOL. Seriously, it’s been AGES since I’ve gone on vacation! I guess it would have to be a daytrip we took to Lake George last summer. I’m working on planning a trip to Disney though since I’ve never been!

  31. Elizabeth says:

    We went to New York a couple of months ago and it was awesome!
