Not a lot is going on here in the Paddock household, thus my recent lack of posts. We are in the same old routine (not that it is a bad thing...) and patiently waiting for fall to come around when we will hopefully start hearing from PA schools aaaand if all goes well moving potentially clear across the country for the beginning of a whole new adventure.
In the mean time, I am trying to plan our last big hurrah of a vacation (until after PA school of course). We decided last year that it would be a lot of fun to have one of us plan a big vacation one year without telling the other anything except what days they needed off work and what to pack, then switching it up the next year. Sounds like a fun idea, right?
Well, it definitely is. I am the lucky one planning the vacation this year. The one thing I failed to foresee when we were making these elaborate plans was how hard it would be to not talk to Hunter about it! I just want to tell him all of the exciting things that I keep planning or seeing the potential to plan. Instead, everyone at work knows all about where we might be going and what we might be doing while there. I had to let it out somewhere that it wouldn't get back to him...haha.
I don't have a plan set in stone just yet, but I do have a pretty good idea of where we will be going. It is still up for debate though. I also have a pretty good idea of the days so at least we have an idea of what days we will need to get off - late August, early September.
The only thing I can say for certain is this: I had no idea how hard it would be to plan something this exciting with only minimal, vague input from Hunter. But, I'm definitely excited about it :)
Here are some of the possibilities, in no particular order, giving nothing away:
New Zealand (very small chance, as awesome as it would be, and Hunter is aware of that fact)
Oahu, Hawaii
Italy (Venice and Rome)
England
Thailand
Does anybody have a favorite among those options? I am certainly open to suggestions, although you should be aware that this will still remain my little secret until we board the plane :) Let me know what you think!
