Mystery Theme: Fantasy Vacation/Holiday

If you could go anywhere in the world for a two week vacation/holiday, where would you go (expense is not an issue)?

Note: Regardless of how proud you are of your own city/location, do not take the easy way out and choose your own city/location.

On the reverse of your postcard, give a small explanation of your choice. Send these postcards naked in the mail.

Postcards that I loved making -- and hated to depart with -- are en route to my partners! :) Enjoy.

Oh thank goodness: I thought the send date was the 22nd and I was in a panic 'cuz my parents are coming this weekend. I am having more trouble with this swap than I had anticipated. You know how the muses desert you sometimes. Not to mention that you don't have the needed images handy. But I'm working on it and I should be done on time: I work best under pressure.

I agree Missysmom, I had NO inspiration, but they will be ready tomorrow!

Done just in time too even after getting called to work for 2 days I wasn't expecting. Told you I work best under pressure.

Did this challenge make any of the rest of you feel guilty? Spending all that money? Taking all that time off? Maybe that's why muses deserted some of us....I had a great idea early on, but it made me feel guilty to execute it.
