Ride across Botswana with eventing ace Mark Todd

This year's Badminton winner and double Olympic gold medalist will be leading a riding safari in Botswana's stunning Okavango Delta.

The trip runs from 25 November to 2 December at Macatoo, a luxury camp in one of the very best game viewing areas in the world.

The Okavango Delta is a true African wilderness and visitors can expect longs days of riding on well schooled horses, while getting up close and personal with the wild animals.

Prices are £3,000 per person sharing (with Zara's Planet) and include all the riding, bush walks, game drives, meals, drinks and transfers in and out of camp.

Places are limited.

Mark Todd (one of my equestrian heroes), riding horses, exotic locale, luxury and wildlife!  *sigh!*  

OK maybe that's not for everyone...where would you guys go, if money were no object?

Have you ever seen that EquiTrekking show on PBS?  They take horses all kind sof cool places.
Also, I once saw a fluff documentary about Julia Roberts (allegedly horsey) living with Mongolian nomads and doing horse stuff with them, it was pretty good.

Where do I start?

Well, one thing I would love to do is travel the Amazon River from it's source at Nevado Mismi in the Andes mountains of Peru, all the way to the ocean. There's just something about the prospect of spanning something that expansive, hiking from the frigid Andes, to Lake Titicaca, and on down lower and lower into the Amazon rainforest, and then on to the mouth of the Amazon River. After I got finished I'd go party in Brazil.

Another thing I would do is get myself a first-class sailboat and sail the globe, visiting obscure locales like the Pitcairn Islands or the Faulkland Islands or Galapagos.

If money was no object, I would like to travel throughout the United States and see all the national parks, the Grand Canyon, and historic sites.  I would start with ALASKA first.  I want to see the wildlife there and go on a salmon fishing trip ....

I'd like a golfing vacation in Scotland and Ireland.  Heck, I'd like a golfing vacation just about anywhere.

There's some really gorgeous scenery in China too, that would be pretty cool to just spend a couple weeks there, going through little villages and stuff.

I've golfed in Ireland. It was pretty awesome.

I'd go to Miami and buy drugs
