A few years ago, my sister and one of my best friends decided that for every "big" birthday, we would celebrate by going on a trip. As each of us turned thirty, we got to choose the location, and the friends would plan out the adventure. I chose Boston/Cape Cod, BFF chose Washington D.C. (4th of July trip), and sister chose Las Vegas/Grand Canyon.
The "thirty trips" were so much fun, we decided to broaden our horizons for "forty." We could choose an international destination! Since I was first up, I certainly felt the pressure to make my selection a good one - I mean, the world was my oyster - SO MANY CHOICES.
