What was your most recent vacation and what was your experience to this most recent vacation?
-
We went for a vacation at my sister`s place in Texas last year. We practiced gun shot, that was really fun, can`t wait to do it again.
-
Went to a lake resort last week for fishing, kayaking, boating, etc. We had excellent weather and good fishing. Unfortunately the mayflies hatched that week so that was kind of annoying, but necessary to maintain the balance of nature.

I tool a few days to go to the Smokey Mountain National Park last week. It was fantastic! I had so much fun hiking and sight-seeing. I got to write off a few things from my bucket list. Zip-lining and seeing my 1st bear in the wild. Cool!

Last August I went to Myrtle Beach for a weekend. The last time I took a week long vacation was in September, 2010. My daughter and I went on a cruise and I enjoyed every minute of it.

We took a week off in March and went to the Rockhound roundup in Deming and saw a lot of old friends then on to see my daughter-in-law and my proxy son. Just love the heck out of both of the, It was sure great. Got back home and wanted to turn around and go back. I would still be down there if it was not for my dad and hubby's deceased aunt. I am ready for another vacation.

My last vacation was actually about a month ago i went with my family to Florida and we went to all the theme parks owned by Disney. It was a great time but it did rain a lot.

My last vacation was probably about 7 years ago to Disney World. I cannot leave my business to go on vacations anymore.

I NEVER had a REAL vacation. :(
I've had staycations and trips to see family down south, but I've never left the country or anything like that.

Not in a long, long time. Sucks.
-
It's been over 7yrs since I've gone on a vacation, with kids and activities we just don't have the time. But we are planning a vacation for sometime this year or next. I don't know where we will go.
-
It has been a while since I have been on vacation. I don't remember being on one recently it has been many moons since our family went on a vacation. But the last one was a family reunion 15 years ago. Sad.
-
over 29 years ago and I had a toothache the whole time. I hope I will have a real vacation once in my life. I can only hope.
-
My last vacation was about a month ago, actually. I went to Maryland to visit my brother and his family. We all went to various places in Maryland like Baltimore's harbor and Ocean City. Also, we went to a couple museums and some of the historic landmarks in Washington D.C. It was really fun and I can't wait to go back.
-
Had it this year when to Vietnam to visit my grandma then went onward's to Taiwan for food after that went to Korea for a week to enjoy the sights.
-
I think vacations are very important. My last vacation wa to Hawaii with one of my sisters. It was a great vacation. My next vacation is next week, just 5 days visiting another one of my sister's in Chicago. Life is short, enjoy your time.
-
It has been many years (15+/-) since we have had a true "vacation". We've had a few weekend trips but not an extended stay. I am scheduled for a wonderful vacation with 9 days/8 nights in Hawaii at the end of September. My daughter and I are going to have a fantastic Mother/Daughter trip together!
-
A week ago we went to a lake resort that we visit every summer. We've made some friends who vacation the same week we do. Weather was fabulous and we caught fish. Unfortunately the Mayfly hatch occurred on the last day....many many many mayflies flying around.
-
We went on a trip last year to New Hampshire to visit my family for Christmas. Some experiences were my youngest caught a very bad cold and needed a nebulizer treatment. Luckily, my SIL had one for her kids. Then on the way back to Florida we stopped in Virginia to rest and the next morning our van wouldn't start. The starter went bad. We got it fixed by a real nice mechanic. All in all my kids got to experience snow and super cold weather. And I got to see family that I haven't seen in 20 years.
Not sure if we'll do it again. We'll see.

My most recent vacation was in September of last year. I flew across the country to California where I stayed for a week with my brother- and sister-in-law. We hiked all week in spectacular county and state parks in CA amongst the gigantic and gorgeous redwood trees and we also spent a day on the wharf in San Francisco. We had a blast!
:party:

I don't think I've taken a vacation in probably 20 years!! :confused1: The children were young and now
they are young adults. lol But I don't mind, I'm used to it. I get an afternoon off at the beach or mall here and there and plenty of breaks during the day. Maybe we'll go some day, just not now. :)
-
Just last month, my family and I went to Wisconsin Dells. It was awesome. We spent one whole day at the Olympus Water and Amusement Park; the Wave at the Water Park is fantastic. We also saw the Tommy Bartlett Show and Jeremy Allen The Illusionist. We went on the Original Ducks where you travel on land thru the woods and then down the Wisconsin River. Also, the Upper Dells Tour. Plus, we went to the nearby casino where I won enough money to pay for my share of the hotel. What a trip! :) :)
-
About 7 years ago I went to New Orleans as a late honeymoon from my wedding 6 months previous. Nothing since then.
-
My hubby and I are going to Myrtle beach in a few weeks for a mini vacation. I am pretty excited. Last vacation was about 5 years ago.
-
May was the last we went for a vacation. And next will be September.
-
I really cant remember the last time I had a vacation...but I guess that's expected when you're a full time mom. Of course for the fourth my family went to the lake for the day. It was fun and the firework show was amazing. I don't know if that one day can be counted as a vacation but it was nice to get out of the 115 degree weather.
-
I like to text more than talk on the phone because most days I'm so busy or I'm doing other things and texting makes it easier to multitask. Between homework, cleaning, taking care of kids and pets and all other tasks I do during the day a text message is simple and takes just a few seconds and then I'm hands free.
-
My last actual vacation was a few days last September. My family took a trip up to Washington and Seattle to experience IFLY - an indoor sky diving experience. It was fantastic. My husband also has some old friends near to Tacoma and we took some time to visit. One of my other favorites activities was we found a chinese buffet called AAA in Tacoma. It was superb, fine quisine, spacious, loved it.
-
I have not had a real vacation in over 5 years. I went to Las Vegas. I used to go every year or two. Then I got married and had kids... Not so much time for vacations anymore! Oh well, there will always be retirement! :party:

Hello I am not sure if anyone noticed but I just did but it looks like one of my posts for a different forum accidentally got posted on this forum and so its totally off topic from this thread. For that I am very sorry it wasnt properly posted. I thot I was in the right forum when I was typing the reply. I was having some issues with my computer and phone_tablet yesterday and wasnt sure what happened. But my deepest apolologies for anyone confused. I dod go back and put the post I made in the right forum and even tho it says im close to the minimum for the month I personally will only count it as one regardless to be fair for everyone and because it was my mistake I should have paid closer attention especially since all devices where glitchy. I also hope that FC does not make it were I cant post anymore due to that mistake. Again my deepest and sincerest apologies for having one of my posts yesterday posted to the wrong forum. Thank you for the understanding.
On a happier.note, I do not know if this will count as a vacation or not, but my boyfreinds sisters have invited us to help make the plans for us and them and all kids to go to a.lake for.fishing just before school.starts....hooray!!

A real vacation... Last July I went on a cruise with my husband.

I guess the last time I went of vacation is some time in 1998 or 1997 and we went to Silver Dollar City. It was fun I wasn't able to afford vacations my son and I even after I got married we couldn't afford it.
-
If I ever get a chance to take a vacation for a week away from my city most likely I would take my family. Im actually hoping once we have fully caught up on all bills and expenses, then we can put away savings each month to take a road trip to see my best friend in OK that I havent seen in ten years around the 4th next year or right after...
-
Last year I only had a mini vacation which was a weekend at the beach. The last big vacation I had was in September, 2010. My daughter and I went on a 7 day cruise to Cozumel, Roatan, Belize and Costa Maya. I loved every minute of the cruise. Can't wait to go on another cruise.

It's been too long. Over 4 years. I am hoping we will have some money saved for next year, so hubby and I can get away. It doesn't even have to be far, just away from our city. As long as it's at least 4 days, I'll be happy.
