Royal Caribbean cruise on an Icon, Quantum, or Oasis class ship (to the Caribbean, of course).

I don't care how much Lemmy hates cruise ships, nothing beats waking up to a different view out of your balcony every morning. Not to mention the unlimited gourmet food. You could eat a dozen lobster tails in a single sitting if you wanted to.

No where lol. I like my home area.

I'd buy a small private ship and sail around the globe. I'd occasionally port to pickup a friend or family member or drop someone off.

To the moon! If money's no object NASAs budget just went up 100 fold.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

I was thinking way too small with my answer. I didn't even consider the idea of telling NASA that I could fund any and every project they want done, if they just send me to the Moon

Looking at the Bahamas sometime this year, but my wife needs to secure the time off first. :(

Well if money is no object then a world tour that lasts the rest of my life, thanks (or if I can use this magic purse on behalf of others instead, stay home and buy up all the world's debt, sponsor a jubilee year.)

I'd donate alot to my local makerspace then take unpaid leave for a good while and just make things. If I had to travel i would probably go to Germany to see a few friends, it's been too long.

[–] CrowAirbrush 3 points 1 day ago

Italy, Japan, or some place with beautiful mountains.

But money is a thing, so i'm not going anywhere.

Canada. Somewhere.

[–] Rhynoplaz 5 points 1 day ago

Somewhere tropical, that won't mind if we smoke some weed on the beach. Jamaica comes to mind, but I'd research options because I'd like to see the other side of the Atlantic.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Road trip across Canada, coast to coast. Just before starting it though I’d fly to the Yukon.

An all-inclusive resort, located somewhere warm with a beach.

Mount Blue Sky, Colorado. Home of the highest elevation optical astronomical observatory who's operators I share a language with

Beyond the edge of the universe

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Somewhere remote that already has a well-established bartering system. Most of the usual tourist places would be a disaster if there was no such thing as money.

Definitely take a boat ride to visit Taiwan at least once before any shit potentially goes down in Asia and war breaks out.

Hell, if it broke out while I was over there, it'd make things easier for me in a way, since I'd be more than willing to help Taiwan in the event of a war by doing whatever the hell they need me to as a civilian who couldn't join the army due to my health. Wouldn't have to be working on helping them from far away, but rather on ground.

The Maldives.

I'd like to go back to Fuzhou, but geopolitical tensions are making international travel less viable by the day.

If money was no object: Las Vegas!

I'd play all the games for free and win all the money. I'd become a millionaire in a week. :)

Lake Meade, Pennsylvania

It'd be cool to walk about Mars for an afternoon. Maybe find that rover (Opportunity?) that ran out of power & give it a fresh battery & clean off its solar panels, see if it'll fire back up again.

novosibirsk russia

Super expensive to travel there and looks like some nice architecture. Just need to hire a team of security specialists.

Ticket prices $36,000 usd round trip from Minnesota. First class.

[–] Camzing 3 points 1 day ago

Vietnam looks nice.
