So it seems everyone has a different idea of vacation. Whenever I hear someone say that they are going to sit by the pool and read a book in some exotic location, all I can say is....you can't find a fucking pool in your neighborhood to do that?
![]() I am of the opinion that if I do not require a day or two off after my vacation to recover from my vacation, then I wasted my time. Granted, I don't have a hectic life and I suck at relaxing so a relaxing vacation sounds like lame-ville. What do you think? |

Agree with the above.
I go places I want to experience.

I guess it depends on what you're looking for. I travel a lot for work, so I get to experience new places quite a bit while on the company dime. On my own vacation time, I'd rather slow the pace way down, preferably in a place where the sights/sounds/temps/etc. are different from home. Sitting in a chair outside reading a book in the mountains somewhere sure beats sitting at home doing the same thing.

Back when we had the RV-We did a lot of brain dead vacations. Basically mountains or beach and relax.
Lately everywhere we go there's SCUBA involved. So usually the only relaxation is the last day for our surface interval so we can fly home. |

I do both, mainly because my wife is of the relaxing kind. It is nice to go on a relaxing vacation over a hectic vacation sometimes too. My trip to cali and back wore me out. I don't really feel like I got a vacation from work and just feel completely burnout right now and need another vacation. That's why I like something like a cruise every once in awhile, because you still get to see a lot of shit and you don't have to worry about hardly anything. You get a lot of recover time with a different experience at every port.
