Well we will be in Orlando 3-10 for 1 week. Then possibly our trip to Hawaii for the last time. It should be one way for our move to Oahu. Looking forward to the new life. :whoopie:

Dec 3rd 2011 - Royal Hacienda, Mexico
March 2012 - Windjammer Landing, Saint Lucia
End of May 2012 - Moab Utah - non timeshare vacation
September 2012 - Bar Harbor, ME, Acadia National Park - non timeshare
November 2012 - Aruba Surf Club

March 2013 two weeks at Windjammer Landing for our 40th anniversary. March 2012 will be our first trip there so depending on how much we like it will determine if we go for two weeks in 2013. Really want to go to Hawaii, but it is a long trip from the East Coast and trying to coordinate free airline tickets with trading my timeshare may be challenging.

So far I've only got the beginning of the year and the end planned.
I'll have to fill in the blanks as I go along.:D

January/Feb is Barcelona and then a Mediterranean cruise on Costa.

December is New Years Eve at Manhattan Club.:cheer:

I know there will be a few visits to the mouse house and the beach but I'm gonna play it by ear and see what cool exchanges I can get. :cool:

I am starting a string of what I consider some great vacations.


1) December 2-18. Windjammer Landing St. Lucia then inter Island flight to Residence at the Crane Barbados.

2) January- Aruba 16 days starting with Hyatt Regency Aruba then two weeks at LaCabana

3) February or March? May be going back to Aruba for week 8 or week 12 as I just bought two more weeks to either rent out or use.

4) April- Annual family vacation for Passover/Easter spring break at Vacation Village at Weston, Florida.

5) July-including July 4th to Bermuda staying at St. Georges Club

6) August/September - Planet Hollywood towers by Westgate for week of labor day

7) November- Cancun for Thanksgiving week at Westin Lagunnamar

8) December- We own week 51 at Playa Linda Aruba and I may not rent this out for the first time in 10 years and actually use it.

Being retired is fantastic!!!!!:cheer: :hi: :wave:
