Vacation Time Again

Now that summer is here I need to think about a vacation. Work at home, especially as a writer, is very stressful. Most of the $40 000 + writers I know burn out rather quickly.

I have been looking over Internet sites. It is the only way to find Cheap Hotels today. I use to pay $120 to stay at a hotel. Now, by looking online, I just found that I can stay at the Grange Hotel in Toronto, Ontario for $89 a night. We are not big vacationers. We just like to have a quiet place to rest where the kids can see the sites and we can enjoy some fine dinning.

But, I am always on the look out for a vacation package. I would like to take my children to Florida once before they grow up and move away. The trick to a great vacation is either to enjoy luxury, sports, or the great outdoors. We usually opt for opposite ends - luxury or the great outdoors. However, I need to make Hotel Discounts instantly, as we sometimes book our vacation only a couple days before.

One thing I do not want to end up doing is planning as we go. My parents did that when I was young. They would just start driving. That meant we ended up staying in a ton of second rate hotels, driving for two or three days to end up nowhere, and eating at weird places.

I remember once we ended up at a restaurant which only served cat fish. Baked, broiled, or mashed, didn’t matter, they would serve it your way. Thirty years later I can still remember someone talking to my dad about how the fish tasted like snake – not my idea of a great vacation. And, an experience I never want to go through again.
