Hi all,

Now with the holidays and all comming up (at least here) i am wondering where are you going this year?

Or are you not going anywhere and saving for something else?

Just interested in what you are all up to!

To kick off myself

Im going to germany this year around the biggesee

Google maps:

And a nice picture here:

Managed to get a nice appartment for not too much money. And i will enjoy my time there in nature and spend some time on a hobby making pictures 🙂

So my DSLR has to come along!

So…… Who’s next? 🙂

Wow! That place looks gorgeous. You should be able to get many good shots there. Have a great time. Pardon my ignorance but what holiday is coming up over there?

Normal summer holidays, lots of people have 2 or 3 weeks free from work and the big europe migration begins 🙂

I hope you get good weather there, Bennitos. I don’t know what I will do but here (in Thailand) the vacations are not the same. The place looks really nice and the heading of the picture – lake Biggesee (sunrise) – at first had me stumped as I wondered how they new I was looking at it. Then I realized it was the sunrise. 😀

Hmmm… holidays over here are kind of over for now. We just had our independence day on July 4th. Nothing like Europe though. We get a long weekend off work. No two or three weeks. That sounds excellent. Maybe I need to move to Holland.

Here there are so many different holidays. In regular it is not like Europe with weeks off in the summer. But they have Chinese/Thai New Year, and other holidays. I usually take a week off in March and another week in October or so. Then every other year I go to Norway to see my family and old friends. I went last year and will mos tlikely go again next year. Here I often have the vacations at the beach somewhere.

Not oly Holland but I think most countries in Europe have a lot longer holidays than in the US. Take your pick. There is something for everyone.
