Summer Vacations

[MissInformation]

Sigh. I realize now that I didn't really anwer the question asked. I think the best kind of vacation is doing exactly what you want to do. For us, this year it's two weeks of "next to nothing". It's been a crazy, hectic year and all we really want to do is escape for a bit and relax. I loved going to England and Scotland, and we are planning a trip to Alaska (there is supposedly a way to take a ferry from place to place that intrigues me) And he wants to go to Sweden one year and I want to go to Ireland... These types of vacations are great, they're exciting, strange and wonderful, but they are a little intimidating and exhausting. They are not the type of vacation that you want to sleep through so you run and run and run and end up feeling like you need a vacation to recover from your vacation.

I've never done a rustic vacation. The cottage where you share the outdoor shower with a multitude of spiders (their webs look really pretty as the sun shines down and the shower spray leaves drops of water on them...) is as roughing it as I have gone. But I can imagine a camping vacation in the wilds of somewhere being fun (now if only I could convince Mr. Creature Comfort Goals of this).

So there. All kinds of vacations are the best!
