    Oh Little House on the Prairie. As a child, I seriously tried to convince my parents to take me on a month-long, historically accurate, covered wagon trip. Instead, I had to be content with constructing my own covered wagon by pushing two couches together and covering them with a blanket. Not the same!

    @FrancisElla: Ha! We did this, too. We also had "homesteads", which were boxes in the basement. We farmed and had long winters in which we had to make bundles of "hay" (rope - the same piece) to stay warm.


    YEEEEAH. I still really love those books.

    I will be going on the Tony Hillerman Staycation this summer, right here in Albuquerque.

    True Blood tour of Louisiana?

    Anita Blake tour of St. Louis?

    Anais Nin's Paris, in which you and your partner move to Paris, then you flirt with your cousin and have an affair with a loud American?

    I think The Mists of Avalon would be a fun tour. Except for, you know, the incest.


    Also, A Tree Grows in Brooklyn . See Willamsburg before it became the overpriced area that it is now.

    Um, how are we missing The Most Dangerous Game? Luxuriate in a swank hunting lodge, traverse the jungles, and maybe get hunted down like a wild animal. It's kill or be killed, thrill or be thrilled!

    Sadie, you can totally go on the Crime and Punishment tour of St Petersburg and see the actual apartments Dostoevsky used as the models for those of Raskolnikov and the pawnbroker. The former is a fucking hovel with some of the scariest graffiti you'll ever read. Ex.: "Rodya, we're with you" and "Rodion, please kill my gym teacher." TRUE STORY.

    Let The Right One In excursion to Sweden. Traverse the snowy landscapes, ice skate near frozen bodies, befriend the local androgynous vampire-child. Bonus: Battle the local, violent bullies.

    I've always thought it would be cool to follow the journey of Odysseus. The tour could start in Troy, in western Turkey, include a meandering cruise around the isles of the Mediterranean, and end on the isle of Ithaca.

    maeve binchy's ireland seems like it would make a nice vacation. always a pub nearby, loving yet annoying family members in your business and a rogue lad to tame.


    'out of africa' vacation...just for the lush landscape and hot pilot paramour...minus the farms and violence and such.

    I've been re-reading A Wrinkle in Time this week, so: The Madeline L'Engle Chronos/Kairos tour. Stops in New Englane; Benne Seed Island, SC; Portugal; a freighter to South America; and others. Pay extra to tesser to Uriel or the two-dimensional planet.

    @fol_de_rol: Meals include Mrs. Murry's Bunsen burner stew and a disgusting fake turkey dinner that tastes like sand (unless of course you have given your mind over to the power of IT ...).

    Learn about racism and agoraphobia first hand and get stuck in a meat-shaped costume. It will make you a better person.

    Also, despite lessons learned from movies 1,2 and 3 I would still visit Jurrasic Park.

    I'd like to go to some more parts of the Lands Beyond. I have been to the Doldrums, Expectations and Mountains of Ignorance and they are, frankly, overrated, but Dictionopolis sounds like fun. I would also like to see Chroma's Orchestra.
