Perfect Way To Live

A friend of mine who lives up in the northern suburbs of Chicago close to where I used to live spends half of the year there that used to be her and her husband’s full-time home until they retired. Now they alternate between the Chicago area in the summers and their Orlando vacation home by the beach in the winters. That’s really such a perfect way to live if you can do it. I don’t evny her packing twice a year. Since it’s such a long vacation they have to pack almost everything. They also had to buy a second set of everything permanent for the second house. Things you wouldn’t want to have to pack up twice a year like dishware, and furniture, beding and such. It’s worth it though. I’d love to spend the winters far from the snow of Illinois down by the beach in Florida.

Pure Heaven

Between all the escapes this week, and the extreme heat and humidity I can’t think of anything I’d rather do than go on a cruise. As vacations go cruises have to be the most relaxing, and complete way to unwind and forget all about the troubles left behind at home, or work. You don’t have to do anything, just lay back on a deck chair and enjoy the breezes, listen to the lapping water hitting the hull, stare at the bright blue sky, and eat. If you WANT to do things there are always various forms of entertainment going on at any given moment, but for me it would be pure heaven just to lay on the deck and let the sounds of the ocean sweep all the aches and headaches away.

The Only Way To Relax On Vacation

Traveling to Florida is a lot of fun. It’s actually one of the vacation spots I don’t just dream about, I actually go to. I love Florida. I have a lot of family on the Gulf side, but I prefer to vacation on the Ocean side. All the real activity is over there. Miami, Orlando–all the really great places, and who could forget Disney World? It’s no secret though that I’m not fond of hotels. It’s much nicer to book a Florida rental vacation. I’ve never looked back. The only time I stay in hotels now is if I’m on a business trip and it’s a pass-through. A cramped hotel room just doesn’t make for a very relaxing vacation.
