Traveling in space has been on my "to do list" for as long as I can remember. It looks like in the next twenty years that dream could become a reality..that is if I can save up 15 mill for a four week stay on a private space station.

I know it seems like a good idea at the time, and for the sake of leaving the planet, maybe it is kinda, but once that all wears off, what's to see? Assuming we're capable of visiting other planets, I'd personally get pretty bored. :/ I mean, once space travel becomes that widespread, sure you gotta get loose of Earth at some point in your life (like what traveling to other countries is right now), but where to go? what's to see? If we knew anybody else out there, taking in their sights and cultures would make it all worth it for me, but... :(

That would be awesome, if expensive as hell.

I wanna go on a space cruise, hang out in the space pool, drinking space lemonade. Sounds like a blast. Except for the radiation from space, and the weakening of muscles and all that, it sounds good.
