@hingehead,
Having a diabetic dog sucks as far as travel goes. CD and I would otherwise, nick off for a month every year...
I used to do stop overs, when I travelled overseas, 5hrs is a long enough time on a plane... And, seeing different cultures, somewhere outside of Australia, or your own Country is worth paying another plane ticket for.
We will have to bide our time, for taking that time out... Our husky is beautiful, so 6am wakeups is worth it... But I swear, no more animals.. Because we do want to travel for a month or two every year and see as much as we possibly can.
I personally loved Greece, although I probably would not go there right now lols.
There is also so much more to explore in Australia. Especially Queensland..
But, going back to America and meeting up with several friends as well over there, is a dream for me, that will be a reality... So, like I said, sleeping tablets if I have to lols
