12 barks and woofs on “Question of the Day”

1. London.

2. Loire and Rhone valleys. Great food, better wine, fantastic scenery.

3. We would go back to Aitutaki in the Cook Islands. We were there in 2008; what a spectacular, beautiful place.

4. Key West, Florida. Walking, eating swimming and sleeping…what a life.

5. I’ll be tagging along behind Boatboy.

6. Bavaria, south of Munich, to the Isar Valley.

7. Right where I am now, in Maine. But we’d turn off the rassafrassin’ electronics!

8. A WEEKEND,People. That doesn’t allow for much more than checking in, getting dinner and/or a show or standing on the balcony looking out at the harbor. A long, exhausting day doing whatever, more food and wine and a plane home.

   Now if the bills to spark up the wardrobe are also included in the “all expenses paid” I can see a long weekend in Manhattan, a day at Bergdorf, a stop at Belgian Shoes, maybe late afternoon tea at the Plaza. Later a massage and facial in our room, then 8:00 wine and dinner at Per Se. At midnight a ride in the elevator to our suite on the umpteenth floor of the St. Regis. A stroll through the Met the next day, lunch at 21 . . . Ah, if only.

9. Weekend? All expenses paid. Hmm. I have to go with NYC, too. I’d try to cram in as much theater, music, ballet, and museums as I could between dining on several fabulous meals. Posh hotel sounds great, too.

   • But if I had a week or two . . .

     • Well, JM, maybe we could negotiate for the two weeks instead of a weekend if we cut back on the meals, tickets and clothes. Say a cheap room on the Left Bank and street food. Or even Oaxaca.

10. A hot-air balloon ride over Kenya during migration season. I’d love to see all the animals.
