Good for you Minerva, I hope the conference will be interesting 
Whereas I love to travel as a tourist, I don't at all like travelling in my work. When I go to conferences, it means hard work 10-11 hours a day, and dinners where you continue to work. It's not glamourous at all - you never have time to see anything else than airports and boring conference centers. This must be a lot better in your line of research since I assume it requires you to go out and study buildings and places
My plans for the summer are to take a short vacation = 2-2.5 weeks in Europe. Nothing special, just getting away to do some hiking and perhaps meet some friends.
I will attend two conferences this summer, perhaps three depending on what happens at my lab. I will try to take some time off later this summer, but we haven't decided where to go yet. As usual, my job makes planning difficult, so we'll see where I end up - I often decide very late depending on what I feel like at that moment
