My wife likes to joke, (I think ), that I am on a year-to-year renewal, so who knows if the 30th will happen...

Actually, though, we are considering a great family vacation for the 30th, which we have never actually done, as we spend all our family time at the lake.

We went to Hawaii on our honeymoon, and we said back then that if we ever have kids, we will bring them to Hawaii on our 20th anniversary. 10 years ago we had the whole trip booked a year in advance, but at the time of the trip our son was quite ill and in the hospital for a number of months, so we had to cancel the trip. Our kids are now lobbying for the family trip to Hawaii for our 30th, claiming that we "owe" them, (yeah, right...), so we'll see....

This motheaten old grizzly suggests that you go to Hawaii. It's fantastic. One can never guess what the future may hold. 🐻

Do it! We spent our 30th wedding anniversary in Hawaii this past June with our two grown boys, and had a wonderful time.

Maui used to be the hot island, but I hear that Kauai is the "go to" island these days.
