Hi everyone! I was reading the Cairo thread and a couple of the posters were talking about going to Disney World once visas are issued. I know my husband and I are planning on a trip once he gets here and gets settled (and we replenish our savings a bit). I thought it might be fun to see if anyone else is planning a trip too. We are planning on going to Maui, Hawaii just as soon as we can after he gets here and we are sooooo excited about it! Anyone else have a trip in mind?

We are planning a little mini vacation this summer once classes are finished. He has 2 wks vacation, so plans include

the Grand Canyon, northern California and San Diego. Will also head up to northern Nevada to see my twin....then on

to Twin Falls, ID to see my brother. What he really wants to do is go fishing!!!!!!!!!!!! Me....I am so not into fishing,

but did tell him will sit on the pier, dock or whatever and have my coffee and all will be well with the world!

Our plans are for next year to go back to Egypt for a visit. What's so exciting is he will go as an American citizen!!

Yeah, that would be cool for him to go back as an American citizen. Thats what I would like to do with my husband one day, and we can finally go into the casino together.

When my husband comes to me in the Fall...I'm going to take him to the Grand Canyon, California, Nevada, Colorado and show him how fabulous the US is...and of course back to Egypt to visit his family. I have this incredible urge to show him everything and experiece everything together. lol, I probably have to teach my husband how to fish and kayak. All the times we've spent together were the best times of my life! I cant wait to see him in May when I go back to Egypt for 2 months.

Are the "classes" your talking about for Naturalization? Are they required to take those classes or could we just purchase a book or study guide and take the test?

He's attending college completing his Bachelor's in Economics. He has a BA in Accounting from Alexandria University, but the

UofA only transferred a certain amount of units. So he's going to school (taking 20 units this semester) and working 40 hrs a week.

Naturalization requirements are online.

Our current plan is a 'driving trip' from Los Angeles to Kansas, about 3 weeks worth.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

When my husband came back home we spent a few days at a really nice hotel in the city. It was nice to be away from home and reconnect without our son stuck to us. We're planning a trip to Algeria in 2012 to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary and him becoming a citizen. We'll take advantage of the blue book and stay a few days somewhere in Europe as well.

We're planning a trip to Disney World some time this summer too! :)

Also, a trip back to Egypt once our AOS is approved in which we are visiting Luxor and Aswan (I never been there!)

And trips to London and Paris some time in the near future.
