Where In The World Would I Go? (PB)

Where would you go if you could go anywhere in the world tomorrow? There are no limitations, no risks involved, and of course it’s all expenses paid. For me this question is nearly impossible to answer because there are so many places I want to go. I have a list of course, but it’s a long one. Just imagine—you have the opportunity to go anywhere you want. How could you possibly choose just one place?

The hardest part—in my opinion—is not coming up with ideas of places to go, it’s choosing one. So, pick the one that first pops into your head, right? Well, the first thing that pops into my head is Scotland. I can imagine myself sitting on a hill above a loch—lake for those of us who don’t know Scottish terminology—reading a good book.

Then my mind goes to Italy. Good food, beautiful views, amazing history. What more could I possibly ask for? Wouldn’t it be great to just go to Italy for a day? To relax in the nice Mediterranean sun—something we don’t see much on the wonderful home front.

 

Then of course I head off to the equally wonderful Germany. Beautiful as well with just as amazing food, Germany has just as many wonderful qualities as Italy. Then my mind goes to Ireland. Then Norway. Then Australia. Around and around and around. How could I ever make a decision with such a big world out there?

So, I guess I’ll pick somewhere I’ve been before.

This is Ruby Beach, Washington. I’ve been to this beach. I could have taken both of these pictures. It’s not a crowded place, it’s not that glamorous. The beach is less sand than pebbles and the driftwood is literally entire trees. There are these huge starfish all over the rocks. And to top it all off I got a terrible sunburn. But, it’s an amazing place. It’s beautiful and peaceful and I’d go back in a heartbeat. Even if it was a 6 hour drive from my cousin’s house through miles and miles of nothing. Did I mention it’s in the middle of NOWHERE?!

In short, I’m glad that I don’t have to decide where I would go, because I would have a very, very, very hard time picking just one.
