I've always wanted to go to Machu Picchu. I love how they think you can afford a trip like that on a few weeks notice. We are TEACHERS after all. Maybe next year...

My dad's wife's daughter (so technically my step-sister, but I don't consider them step family) is a Spanish teacher in Reading, I think, and she's taken several of those kinds of trips. I don't know what kind of a fancy salary she has, but she's traveled to Spain and Mexico and South America like every other summer (or more) for a decade.
