[quote=Anonymous]"Annual" and "tradition" would make my really wary. I just couldn't commit to something like that. I spent my 20s traveling to really exotic places with dh and my friends with what little annual leave I had. I mean backpacking through Europe, India, Asia, etc. Things you can't do once you have kids or get older. I absolutely hate beaches too and hate house rentals, so a beach house is the worst thing ever. My inlaws are always trying to make some annual tradition happen and we just can't. I don't see why we can't have new experiences every year? If we had fun one year at some place, why do we have to return there? DH feels the same.

It's worked out better the way my parents do vacations. We brainstorm where we want to go, plan it and go together. We just did a big trip to Patagonia with our kids and it was wonderful. Started in Buenos Aires and met up there. Neither set pays for us. I also think our situation might be different because DH and I got together at 20, and I know my inlaws are bitter about not having him to themselves at all as an adult. [/quote]
