[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do I feel like this is the spouse who enjoys the luxe hotel vacations hoping the camping spouse sees this post and has the epiphany?[/quote]

There are a lot of types of vacations or long weekends besides vegging in a high rise versus camping outside. 
Cultural trips to historic cities/countries, lake trips, beach trips, hiking island trips, mountain ski trips, rent an Airbnb in an old town square, culinary trips, performing arts trips, sports game trips, zoo or safari trips, cruises or amusement park trips, houseboat trips, museum city trips.  And many places you can do a mix of things, a mix of enjoy the resort grounds plus a day trip here or there.

Plus Airbnb or timeshares or plain hotels are an option versus whatever easy pricey thing your spouse quickly selected. [/quote]

Lake trips have worked for all of us pretty well. So thanks for the reminder. beach trips have been ok too. Mountain ski trip was a disaster but might work if we rented a house instead of a hotel room.  I’m not a huge fan of zoo/safari trips, but my family is, and we have done a few of those so I guess we can plan a few more.  We do a yearly amusement park trip which is fun for the kids and not fun for me and the husband.  My husband hates urban/city type places or places that have crowds, so we tend to avoid city trips. But I sometimes get to do a weekend getaway in a city with friends so I do get my city fix once every couple years or so. We have not done a hiking island trip and that sounds like something we all might enjoy.

Thanks for all the great ideas!! Maybe I have been limiting myself….and on further thought, I think I have just gotten over doing all the planning, prepping, packing, organizing, cooking, shopping, cleaning, cheerleading, and leading, for minimal reward, and am just ready for lazier vacations.[/quote]
