What!!! six? I am lucky to get 6 hours of vacation time in a month.

Had 2 weeks in Mallorca during the spring. Which is a better time to go away, as Jamie says, might as well spend summer in Britain as the weather is better and it's too hot to go to the likes of Spain.

I have left 20 paid vacation days out of 22 a year. So vacation wise this has been a very slow year and so far I have nothing planned for the summer. I'm only pondering spending a week in London in fall (don't worry I'm not after your jobs). I wish I could cash in some of these days.

Yep, the greek/phoenician city of Arse, roman Saguntum and present day Sagunto (Sagunt in Valencian-Catalan :p ). Hanibal laid siege to it on his way to Rome in the second punic war.
The locals don't know much English...

to be honest I use much of my summer vacation to relax by programing things for work that I don't have time to do otherwise :p

I've just spent three weeks dossing around, now my real vacation starts: 2 weeks to finalise our new asset database :bandit:

I do that sometimes. This year a lot of java programming is planned.

But my vacation plan spans 2-3 weeks, not 6 :eek: :evil:

No summer holiday yet, it will be in August and I will happily stay home!
Due to my job I constantly visit exotic places, just landed back from Malta a couple of hours ago, so when I can I stay home and enjoy it, a reason for the miss to hate me! :D
