that is a good plan. travel is close to everyone's heart. it is so much fun and you get to experience different cultures.
we all want to travel while we are young and still have endless energy.
I think I should start out by making some plans for Costa Rica anyway in 2014. it is close enough and it will not cost an arm and a leg.
I will do some mountain biking there if I go and I will post the pics here.

I have the Qatar exxonmobile open (Doha) timer up on the top. that is just 5 days away now.
