replying to @t_jh2009 A1) One of my favorite & kind of scariest memories from 2022 was my encounter with the wild burros outside of Death Valley National Park. #TRLT

replying to @TravelAtWill @TravelAtWill Not at all. Sadly, they've become accustomed to getting handouts from people. #TRLT

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @LindaPeters64 A1 I did my first cruise. To be honest, it was something I had never really fancied, but I ended up loving it. #TRLT

replying to @StripeyMiata @StripeyMiata @LindaPeters64 @DisneyCruise Cool, that's good to know because I've been thinking about doing it myself. #TRLT

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @LindaPeters64 A1. Finally got to tick Cappadocia off my bucket list this year. Definite highlight of the travel year #TRLT
t_jh2009
replying to @sl2016_sl @sl2016_sl @LindaPeters64 That's cool. You should consider visiting the Southwest United States where there's a number places to go hot air ballooning. #TRLT

Q2) If your travels were limited by COVID (having it, avoiding it, or travel restrictions), what adventures did you enjoy? Show us a photo! via @CaitlinKellyNYC #TRLT
t_jh2009
replying to @t_jh2009 A2) My travel wasn't affected by COVID, though I was still somewhat cautious. That said, I was glad to be able to interact with others again while traveling like the couple who took this photo at Montezuma Castle NM near Sedona. #TRLT

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 In 2022 there were quite a few restrictions when I travelled - both to Ethiopia and Europe, and also returning to Kenya. #TRLT
t_jh2009
replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel That's why I only traveled to my timeshares in Carmel, Lake Tahoe, and Sedona by car this year. #TRLT
TheTravelCamel
replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 There are still restrictions to Kenya and Ethiopia. Must have a vaccination certificate or negative COVID test. And bring paper documents - not digital. #TRLT

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @CharlesMcCool A3 #TRLT. We loved Pakistan. The people we met were very welcoming - and also very keen on taking selfish with us!

replying to @t_jh2009 3) One of my favorite meals this year was at Lake Tahoe because of COVID it had been 3 years since I was able to sit outside & enjoy the view again. #TRLT
t_jh2009
replying to @TheTravelCamel @TheTravelCamel Unfortunately it might have been my last visit to that restaurant. Larry Ellison bought it and the adjoining hotel so prices are expected to go up. 😲 #TRLT

Q4) Things don't always go as planned while traveling. Share a story and photo of an unplanned highlight from your travels. #TRLT
t_jh2009
replying to @t_jh2009 A4) While in Carmel, I was disappointed that I wasn't able to go to the Monterey Bay Aquarium, but pleasantly surprised I was able to get into Point Lobos State Reserve. #TRLT

replying to @TravelAtWill @TravelAtWill @LindaPeters64 @HeidiSiefkas I took that tour years ago and was able to see the lava in the volcano though we weren't allowed to go directly over it. #TRLT
TravelAtWill
replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @LindaPeters64 @HeidiSiefkas And of course as soon as we got home Mauna Loa erupted. Would have loved to see it when it was “rumbling”. #TRLT

A4: Things don't always go as planned while travelling.
An unplanned highlight from our travels, was a foodie hike in Québec's Jaques Cartier National Park. The guide wasn't advised of the 'foodie' part & didn't bring any food.
Thankfully, the park & guide were both amazing

replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 Nice, it reminds me a little of Mt Rainer National Park in Washington. #TRLT

replying to @t_jh2009
@t_jh2009 Québec's natural beauty is beautifully picturesque, Tim.
#TRLT
t_jh2009
replying to @LindaPeters64 @LindaPeters64 But do I need to bush up my French in order to go? 🤔 #TRLT

Q5) Share a travel-related lesson you learned this year. Why was this lesson important to you? via @postcardsplaces #TRLT
t_jh2009
replying to @t_jh2009 A5) I learned that when putting your meds into a pill box, double check and make sure that you have the daily dosages correct because my life might depend on it. #TRLT
