You have 18 months to save up - this is why I'm giving such long notice......

I'd always talked about taking a trip to America.... this could be te perfect opportunity

To do it with you nuts.

AidenL · May 10th, 2005, 10:24 AM

Have you persuaded Soggy and DK to do the planning yet?

Big Red · May 10th, 2005, 10:49 AM

Alrighty then....

As much as I'd love to I just can't see this happening for me unless I've won the lottery or got divorced

Married with young kids means a family holiday for me.

Have to see if they are signing up first......

I guess it would be most helpful if some of the locals might chip in with a draft itinerary of how long it might take us, or coming at it from the opposite direction, what we might be able to fit in over 10 or 12 days? I say 10 or 12 to allow for travelling and recovery at either end.......

This might be an Irish Run in the US with the way the sign-ups are going already.......

MtM does the USA !

You could pack em in an SUV and follow the MINIs........

This could be the trip of a lifetime Bob, don't write it off just yet........

You could bring the kids to Disney LA en-route........
