Are you planning a vacation to a warm southern location this winter? Where?

The cold weather can leave many people thinking about going on a vacation to a sunny location. Winter is a time of low temperatures that makes me dream of visiting a tropical island. I wen to St Lucia in the Caribbean once and thought it was so relaxing there. I liked seeing the white sandy beaches and the gently waving palm trees. I enjoyed seeing the lush landscape with all the green plants and flowers. I do so love to travel. In the winter months I would have to fly to somewhere outside Europe in order to get some sunshine. Good options would be Egypt, the Cape Verde Islands, India, Thailand or the Philippines. I adore doing island hopping and snorkeling coral reefs. I like to meet the local people, see a different culture and see native wildlife.

Yeah, I think I will spend the whole winter in a nice warm climate. Someplace where there are palm trees and the ocean is not far away and the sky is blue and the birds are singing. I can step outside barefoot and bask in the sun. Oops, I already live here in sunny Fl.lol I hope you get your vacation. I used to captain boats to the Virgin Islands. Go to the British Virgin Islands they are safer, cleaner, and more beautiful than the American islands. The Dutch Islands further south are nice too.

That sounds like a good plan to me. We usually have long, cold and dark winters as well. We live in Norway. I am not much of a winter person and like to get a break midwinter. The best one was a four week stay in Australia and New Zealand. when going on a winter vacation we usually like to relax on the beach, go for hikes and trips to explore the place, and we enjoy eatingout in the evening. usually the Canary Islands is where we go. It is the closest place where we are guaranteed a warm winter vacation. Does not look like we'll get to go this year. I am glad my man is out getting firewood right now. Hope you'll have a great vacation, and that everything goes well with all of you.

My partner's mother is taking us to South Africa this January and I'm so excited! I feel like we've won the lottery or something to get a trip to such an exotic place! We're going to Cape Town at the end of the month and even better, we're going to be there for my 25th birthday! It's certainly going to be a birthday I'll always remember, I'm sure of that. We're also going to go on one of the safaris so we can see the animals. There's also a penguin reserve not far from us. How odd is that? Seeing penguins in South Africa! I can't wait! Usually the period after Christmas is one of anti-climax for a lot of people - not the best time to have a birthday as no one else feels like celebrating anymore. This year is going to be spectacular though! The warmth is going to really help my bad health too, I'm sure of it. How can you feel ill when you're in such a magical place? Sorry for gushing at you, but I'm just so thrilled!

well, I'm in a warm tropical country so I'm not travelling anywhere. but the Barbados sounds excellent! i just saw a discovery channel travel and living programme that was showing the top ten resorts in the barbados. and the sea looked amazing. take care, and hope all of them recover well in the warm weather!
