I think we need a little fluff :)

1. Have you/Will you decorate(d) for the fall?

2. Have you started any Holiday shopping yet?

3. What is one food (or drink) that you look forward to when the weather gets cooler?

Bonus (it was a discussion at work yesterday and wondered others opinions):
4. If you were able to have an inheritance for your children (or maybe you have already experienced this with your own family), and you were able to live comfortably and was not relying on that money to survive, would you rather spend the money while you are alive and watch your children enjoy the money now or would you rather have it given to them when you died?

Yes, I know. That's why I said "like North Carolina" and not "actually North Carolina".

I don't think anyone goes specifically to the Caribbean for Mahi Mahi, but why is it odd to have it there?

Do you meet other people or is it just the family and doing things off the beaten path?

Well, in a conversation about wanting to eat local foods when one travels, interjecting with a Hawaiian dish one had on a Caribbean cruise is about as non sequitor as it gets.

Too expensive for all of us as you need to fly to Italy and then cruise the ship for 2 weeks. This is something that we have planned for just the 2 of us when we are older-not too old though :)

Do you think you can only get fresh Mahi Mahi in Hawaii?

I think you can get DOLPHIN just about anywhere. I think if you want Mahi-Mahi as a *local* cuisine, you need to be in Hawaii. Just like, if you have spaghetti on that trip, that TOO would be a NON example of local cuisine.

Sometimes we met other people, sometimes we vacation together with other people, sometimes it is just the family. We have friends in various countries we visit too.

Oh please. My point is that you've pretty much limited all of your travel to one very specific area of the world. So Bermuda is not in the Caribbean - it's still a beach resort not too far from home.

And again, I didn't say I went looking for local food.
