Let's have some fun with this - If you could go ANYWHERE in the world for a holiday, regardless of price, where would you go and why?
Pretend you've just won the lottery! Is it warm, cold, scenic or relaxing?

We once went on a cruise in the Inside Passage in Alaska. It was on a small boat not one of the big lners.WWe were one of the first boat allowed in as we were so small we were not disturbing the ic floes. We caught several groups of students up on the sides studying the Puffins we thought. It was strange for us to see them thee the last time we had seen Puffins was in North Wakes in UK. Er used to cycle around North Wales when we were teenagers, sleeping in barns or Youth Hostels, depending in getting a bed or having the money for one.
Rge 2 cruises we did in the Inside passage were fantastic. The Salmon where fighting to go upstream to lay their eggs. The bears were prowling the sides of the rives & through the woods, We were given a talk about the best way to protect yourself if you met a bear. With one you had to stand as tall as you could with the other curl up & pretend dead. The problem was it was difficult to say which was which as the brown bear could be black & vice versa. We never met one out in the open but did see silly people trying to take a photo of a mother bear with twin cubs
The woods & the sides of the rivers stunk with dying salmon. They were everywhere. There certainly shortage for the bears. We went on a huge glaciers on these giant buses, When we were allowed out then tyres were as tall as us. We were warned to be careful where you walked if you fell down a hole they would like find you in the distance future at the bottom of the glacier,
It so certainly to do such a trip we went on the top deck to look out for all the animals in the woods as we went along. There rafts of sea otters carrying their babies on their fronts as they paddled along. They showed no hint iff fear from us. Then the crew would come out & cook biscuits brownies, for chocolate, never dr.unk so much hot chocolate in my life. Were so spoilt.. they kept watch fir us also calling out, there were binoculars any & everywhere. Just had ti reach out as you ran for the stairs.
I reckon it was about the best holiday I ever had. We had no special dressing it was relaxing all the way.
