Um, being from Greece myself,
I do NOT want to spend the summer there..I would really like a change of scenery.Perhaps Iceland or some scandinavian country.
Went to Norway after jan exams and really liked it!!
So much GREEN everywhere!!! :-)

Let it be a tear
Let it be a sigh

If I had the money that's pretty much what I'd want to do. I'd especially like to see Italy, Greece and Egypt, that would be fantastic.

If I really had the time and money I'd love to spend a couple of summers following in Bill Bryson's footsteps, round Europe on his "Neither here nor there" route, then round the US on the "The Lost Continent" route.
Or going and seeing all the anchient sites in Italy and Greece, Egypt and South and Central America would be very cool too.
Or if I was feeling lazy and had much more money, I'd do Vegas Baby!

Cannot make up my mind to decide on one place- so here we go:
Bhutan- the 'Kingdom in the clouds'
Kyoto- missed the cherry blossoms for this year, but Kyomizu's always worth a visit, as is the amazing Kyoto cuisine
New York- possibly the best city in the world, 'nuff said
Zanzibar- Tanzania's jewel, nothing beats dinner at the rooftop restaurant of Emerson and Green's
...
too many places and too little time and $$$

Bermuda. Nice and warm but not too hot, funny male fashion- Bermuda shorts, polo shirts, boat shoes or sandals and black knee high socks. I went there a couple of years ago. My brother and I went snorkeling off the hotel beach, and we found a cannon underwater!

Nope, Bangkok by far. It's a bit dirtier, but it has a lot more character than NYC.

Poland, except I'd want to go in late summer, to go mushroom hunting in the old-growth forests. Absolutely beautiful, and you get an awesome meal out of it too (if you like mushrooms, that is)
