Wow! A million dollars. I love to travel and I could do a lot of traveling with that!
Let's see....I would like to wake up somewhere where a breakfast would be brought to me and that I would have hot water to wash with and a comfortable bed to get out of. I would like to have a beautiful view of the sun coming up...if I decided to get up that early. It would have to be someplace with a fairly high standard of living and beautiful scenery. Maybe Switzerland, New Zealand, Great Britain, Italy. Any country that fit the above would do.
To have a fantastic meal, I would have to go to France first, because I adore French cooking. After that I would say just about anywhere in Europe. Other places might have great cooking, but I would have to try it out.
I would want to shower in a country with hot, running, indoor water. Nuff said.
Make merry? Any place in the world with my loved one.
I am not above showering under a waterfall, or eating food cooked over a campfire, making love under stars or waking up with the sounds of exotic animals or nature sounds. These are exciting adventures, too.
I guess I am saying that I would love to go anywhere and everywhere! Each place has it's own special charm. I love to see different scenery, experience different cultures and meet different people! Give the the money and I'll go 'round the world!!!

Yeah, bathing in warm springs like that would be great. I read somewhere that Machu Pichu (spelling ?) in Peru had warm springs in a cave nearby.

ah, the answer for each of those is the same for me...Santorini Greece. I found a sunset cam for it and I try to watch it everyday until I get the chance to go there. It's so beautiful. Of course, I dont speak any Greek! :)

Well, I surely wouldn't need a million dollars but...I would choose to wake up in England. Either in London so I could start my day seeing the many things I love about that city, ot maybe out in the countryside in a castle hotel. Very romantic. I would definately go to Italy for the best meal, no explaination needed. I guess for the shower I would want to be in the US at one of the famous spa resorts. There are so many I don't know which one right now would be best for me, but I think a spa would be the right place. For merry making maybe Jamaica. Tropical, sun and beach, laid back.
