What are your 2012 travel plans?

Back to the USA either in Sept for a friend's wedding, or Xmas. Isle of Man / UK in the fall, or Xmas. Hopefully attending a conference in Beijing with my wife this summer as well. I should be starting work soon so hopefully that will leave more money to travel through Japan, and the surrounding countries!

Cuba - done but will probably go back next year for a more adventurous experience. Spain in April - Granada, Seville, Madrid and....??? Not fully planned yet. Travelling with my best travel buddy. We will probably go one other place in addition to those listed. We will be there for 2 1/2 weeks. I will go to Ontario in the summer and possibly DC in the fall for a Smithsonian overdose. Of course SF is on the list and so is Chicago but not sure how much more I can work in without running seriously into debt.

Sadly, no international travel for the Badgers this year. The Mrs and I are attending a conference in St. Louis (I've insisted that we drive past America's Largest Catsup Bottle so I can get a FOT pic); there may be a summer trip to Palm Desert; and there's another conference in San Diego, which I might attend solo. These should be OK trips, though it's never awesome to have to prepare research ahead of time. It goes without saying that preparing ahead of time is better than having to write your paper in the bathroom of the hotel because it's 3 a.m. and you don't want to disturb anyone but your panel is at 9 [cough, Madison, cough, cough].

We all know that jeffmac is soon going somewhere fun. What about you?
