Where are you going for your 2011 summer vacation? or where have you gone?
Sadly I am short of cash this summer, which means I'll go nowhere. :disappointed:
In moments when I'm really desperate I just go into tourist bars and tell everyone I'm a tourist, too!![]()
No summer holidays for me as a professional in tourism, that is when we are the busiest, hols are a no-no. On the other hand, I went to nearby Poland three times (Stettin, Krakow and Poznan), visited the surroundings of Berlin (Sachsische Schweiz, Dresden, Leipzig) and got a few days with the family in Belgium and visited Flanders with the kids (Antwerp and Ghent). IMO, getting holidays outside peaktime is the best as it allows you to take advantage of lower fares and it is more pleasant to visit a city when it's not packed with other tourists.

An overwhelming part of Germans fly to Spain, Ibiza or Tenerife for the summer, Julia. It seems that Turkey and Tunisia are getting more popular every year though.
