I need a vacation… desperately. Between all the drama that is the Middle East, the attacks, the news, the explosions, the media, I’m obviously incredibly stressed out. I need some peace and quiet away from everything – away from the internet, television, email, Facebook. Ideally, somewhere that is warm and super peaceful… and very quiet.
I have 9 vacation days left to use up this year so I want to use them well. Meanwhile, I’m going to go into fantasy land and imagine the amazing vacation I could have away from it all…!
1) Italian village
Ah, it would be so amazing to go to a small town or village in Italy and just enjoy the utmost quiet of being in a place with little transportation and movement… the kind of place where there are long naps in the afternoon and people seem to live a slower pace of life, where time is not of the essence. And then I could, of course, enjoy the delicious Italian cuisine.
2) By the beach in Greece
While I’m fantasizing, why not just visualize a week in a gorgeous hotel in Greece with pools and a seaside view. I would spend my days just lying outside enjoying the sun, dipping my feet into the cool water of the pool, enjoying my time as it passes by slowly and calmly. Ah, and to explore the regions.
3) An Island
No better way to get away from it all then heading to an isolated, exclusive, luxurious island! A girl can dream. 🙂 Ideally, it would be one of those gorgeous islands with cabins right on the water, with exclusive pools of course. I’ll also need white sand and the clearest waters possible.
4) A spa hotel
Daily massages, pedicures, manicures, pamperings… yep, I could be a very happy gal there. All I need is some soothing spa music, a wonderful massage, and to soak my feet in warm water. I can only imagine that I would resurface a changed person – fresh, relaxed and rested.
5) A cruise
I would love a cruise that would have me out at sea for weeks just being spoiled with unending entertainment, delicious buffet meals, and tons of activities. Some days I would rest, some days I would check out everything the cruise has to offer. What a way to get away from it all!
Here’s hoping that one of my future blog posts is about me actually being in one of these locations…
I want to go on a cruise soooo bad!!!! I recently moved from Pa to Fl, so I kind of feel like I’ve moved to Paradise! Having the beach so close, I feel like I am on vacation all the time.
We just got back from 9 days in Disney World on Sunday and my husband and I need a vacation from our vacation LOL. It was exhausting! I would LOVE to go on a cruise.
I would pick the beach in Greece. But that’s just because I want to see the ocean one last time.
All of those would be awesome vacations. We’ll be going on a cruise in December. I can’t wait!
These are awesome getaways!! We are going to the Caribbean in October and I am really looking forward to some beach time!
My most restful vacation was actually a week spent camping and hiking in the Smoky Mountains. It was so relaxing.
Any of these vacations would be great. Take me with you?
I am with you on number 3, I’d love to be there right now. You are not kidding about the media and chaos in the world today, makes me sick to my stomach 🙁
Greece is definitely one place I’d love to visit. It looks so relaxing!
My most restful vacation was our honeymoon in Aruba! I would love to go to Greece, though!
These all look like great vacation destinations to visit. I need a vacation too, I really do. I work very hard, homeschooling, blogging, providing for my family – it’s exhausting!
They all sound so good – I think I would love to be on a spa holiday at the moment – bliss!
Spending time with the family at Great Wolf Lodge in Charlotte/ Concord NC area there is something for everyone there.
Most restful definitively getting away in an island
Hope you are safe!
An island or a spa hotel would be a perfect vacation. What about a spa hotel on an island?
I could really use a spa hotel, that would be nice. To take a week off and relax.
I’m packing my bag right now! I’ll go to any of those places! I hope you get to go away soon, and I’m sending out good thoughts for all of you in Israel to stay safe. xo
You and me both. I would love to go for a nice spa vacation that would be heavenly.
I would LOVE to go to Greece too. It looks like a gorgeous place to visit!
I love all of these suggestions but for me the most restful vacation is going back home and spending time with my folks and family members. I hope to see down the road where you had a wonderful relaxing. vacation
I’ll take the island getaway please. I need it.
All of the above look like vacations I would love to take! The one I really need now is the spa vacation
I would love to do all of the above! Everything looks so delightful.
I agree, I am also in desperate need of a vacation! Luckily, my family and my daughter’s friend are going to Disney in October! Then, my husband and I are going on a cruise in January!
I was gonna say most of my vacations are go, go, go! I would love to go sit on a beach in Italy!
I’d be good with a spa hotel!! I really need a vacation too.
I’d like #1, #2, #3, #4, or #5. Yep, any one of those sounds good to me. I think #1 is my fave. 🙂
Our vacations are always so adventurous! I would love to take a cruise and just relax
Sign me up for that Greece vacation! Would love to see that beach!
i need a spa getaway. We have spent the last week moving into our new house. I didn’t think i had so much stuff! I need a vacation after all this.
Gosh if I had to take a vacation…. LOL Seriously I would love to be any of these places!
I was just telling my boyfriend I’d love to go to Italy with him. I think it’s #1 on my list, too.
I’d love to go on a cruise, but honestly, seeing Greece makes me want to go there too. It’s beautiful!
Grease sounds wonderful and depending wear it would also fit the island getaway you have there. Take care.
If only there was a place that had all of the above! But I would so go to the beach in Greece right now. Maybe someday.
have always wanted to visit Italy. If it was up to me I would chose an Italian Village.
