[quote=Anonymous]Get a mindfulness app and start using it now. Literally teach yourself how to start smelling the flowers. Then once on vacation you’ll be ready to use what you learned. When given the choice of doing something or not, do it. Get up early to see the sunrise at least one morning. Go out on the beach and let the kids wade in the water in the moonlight. Agree to play the game of spike ball with your kids even when lying in a beach chair reading your book sounds more immediately appealing, or go on that fishing trip even though you’re scared to touch a fish. Encourage everyone to try the oysters and laugh about it! I often don’t want to in the moment, but all our favorite family vacation memories are when we did something unexpected. And my kids love seeing me and DH outside our comfort zones! And bring something to play good music in your condo. It always brightens the mood.[/quote]
