DH and I will be celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary in September. I just made reservations for a night in Mackinaw City, and 2 nights on Mackinaw Island for a little "anniversary getaway" that month. But, we would also like to do something "bigger" either this coming winter or next summer. For our 25th we did a 7-night Disney Magic cruise (our first cruise) and 4-nights at WDW that following January. We could wait for our 50th, the "bigger" anniversary but we learned from DH's Mom that you should do what you can when you can and not always "wait for tomorrow" because sometimes "tomorrow" doesn't come (she passed away at age 62 from ALS and never saw her 40th anniversary).
So, we have been tossing around ideas:
1. Alaskan cruise/tour, OR take a few weeks and drive (pickup camper) to Alaska ourselves.
2. Hawaii - either fly and spend 2 weeks and see 2-3 different islands or cruise from California.
3. Route 66 road trip next summer, with the truck camper.
4. "Out West" road trip (again, with the truck camper) to see Yellowstone, Mt. Rushmore, etc.
We just can't seem to make a decision, and if we're going to do something this winter we need to get it planned SOON.
So, if you had the choice, which one of those would YOU do?
Or, if you've done any of these please tell me about your experience and maybe make some suggestions to enhance the trip, things to do, things to see, etc.
Thanks!
