Why look at a sample travel itinerary? General Ideas are all well and good, but I get overwhelmed sometimes when I look at travel guides and am trying to figure out how to put it all together.  Being able to see a real trip, broken down day-by-day is the best way to get a sense of how to string all those locations together into the best vacation ever.  

The links below are brokend down into two sections: Upcoming Trips and Completed Trips.  

Check out the Upcoming trips to see vacations that I hope to take in the next 6-12 months.  Trips that are much further off than that will likely just be written up as destination pieces: too much can change in a year to make it worthwhile to figure out specific details at a day-to-day level.  

Completed Trips are just that: Here you can find a sample travel itinerary for every trip that I have planned out and taken.  They will contain the information that they had when they were upcoming trips, but will also have updates to reflect any changes that came up when the trip actually happened.  

Upcoming Trips (Listed by how soon I plan to take the trip)

Dates Planned	Destination	Basic Description
January, 2010	Quebec City, Quebec	We'll be taking a roadtrip from Boston up to Quebec City.  Highlights will include an overnight stay at the Hotel de Glace (Ice Hotel), dogsledding and our continuing mission to find the best outdoor hot tub for winter relaxation
Postponed until Jan., 2011	Iceland	After a semester of intense law school work, it's going to be time for a break!  Rather than go to some expensive Caribbean resort, Y and I will be spending 10 days in Iceland.  We'll take advantage of the hot tubs and springs to melt away the built up stress and spend the evenings watching for the Northern Lights.
