[quote=Anonymous]My ILs are the type that want to spend every single second together and I need my breaks. It is the main reason I avoid traveling with them. It works so much better when we aren't staying at the same house or hotel as them, which in your situation I don't think would work. I don't think it is fair to take day trips without her when you are on vacation together but I think walks or meals are more realistic. You could try being even more forward and instead of just saying "DH and I are going for a walk." say "DH and I are going for a walk. When we get back I thought we could all go to brunch together." Is her sleep schedule the same as yours? If she is going to bed earlier or sleeping in later, you can use those times as well. You could have a routine that every morning you and DH get up early to do a workout together and grab breakfast. If she is winding down at night, you could head out for late night drinks and appetizers.[/quote]
