    Default Holidays ??

    The time has come the Walrus said to talk of many things......

    OK maybe not many things but how about Holidays.

    Where would you like to go for a Holiday in 2011, that is assuming that money was no object.

    I would love to visit Japan as this country has always fasinated me. Where would you all like to visit?

    I would love to go to Australia with a stopover each way in Singapore.

    Australia to visit family and friends and Singapore to show my son where I was born.

    We went about 11 years ago, but when we got back our car was broken into and we lost all the holiday pics, so need to go and take more.

    I have always fancied going to see "Petra" in Jordan, but with the political climate I do not think I ever will.

    It looks just like that bit out of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade - did they film it there?!

    As for me, I've always wanted to go to Norway... Maybe one day!

    Yes you are correct, that is where they did the filming for Indiana Jones. Petra is the city that is carved out of sold rock and it is hidden and you can only get to it by a narrow passageway through the rocks.
