      That said, I plan to do all or a few of the holidays below:

      - 2 weeks in New Zealand
      - 2 weeks riding on me TB Storm lassie in France and Spain.
      - 2 weeks on the island of Mljet snorkeling around.

      Good choices.

      Love NZ, lived there for 4 years, been back a few times since.
      Good gardeners there

          A week of cycling in Cuba. But that's not till October

          Will try and get a weekend or two away before then. Thinking Prague looks nice.
