At the beginning of the year instead of making a New Year's resolution list, I prefer to make a travel (resolution) wish list and fantasize about where I want to go next. This blog is called "Travel"moon after all. Last year, with a newborn baby I knew that the wish list was probably going to be just that, a fantasy. But this year many of those
2012 travel wishes are coming true, and some by chance rather than design.
First on the list was Sweden. Not only will I be traveling to Sweden, I am going to be a bridesmaid in my friend's wedding that is taking place in a castle. Certainly a far grander and meaningful trip than I imagined when I put it on the list.

I will also have the chance to go to Copenhagen. I have wanted to travel there ever since I saw the movie Prince and Me. Anyone remember that one?

Number two on my list was a trip to somewhere (anywhere) in the Caribbean. We are going to the Dominican Republic on a family vacation, and on a recent trip down the Pinterest rabbit hole I discovered that the photo I originally posted on my travel wish list was actually of the Dominican Republic. Hmmmm if that isn't fate...

I had San Diego on the list so I wouldn't feel like a complete travel failure, and I did actually make it there quite a few times. I will be traveling there again this month before heading up to Santa Barbara for a bachelorette party weekend.

The last spot on the list I haven't mentioned was Charleston, South Carolina. Who knows maybe it will happen after all, or maybe it will just make the 2014 list!
