Summer Vacations

Summer Vacations:

Summer is the time for vacations.  It’s when schools are out and people stop and take a break to recharge their batteries.   It’s the time when family’s take time to reconnect and enjoy each other.  It’s also a time when memories are made and you can experience things that you wouldn’t otherwise experience.

But there is a problem with planning summer vacations.  It’s early April and it’s time to get started planning for your summer vacation.  If you haven’t at least contemplated where you want to go and what you want to do, it may already be to late to get in many of those high-end vacations.   This is not to say that you can’t go to some place like Hawaii, but you will pay the price literally.   Because those favorite places are already booked.

The Solution:

While the problems with making reservations and planning vacations are clear, there are also solutions to those problems.  For example, if you were to get a timeshare, you have the potential to solve the issue of location as well as money.  Contrary to popular belief, timeshares can be used at most any time of year and ongoing and you can reserve a location late into the typical vacation season.

International!

It’s not just those locations in the Continental United States or International, you can go most anywhere with a timeshare.   Consider that you can go to South Africa, Canada, Caribbean, Portugal, Canada and West Australia.  If any of these places are on your potential list of places, then you can still go to them and book them.  Consider that going by way of timeshare you can actually get more than you would have otherwise.   In many cases, you’re  not going to have to worry about those traditional issues that come with a regular hotel.  You can have a normal home or a hotel.  If you get a home, you wont have to check in.  You also wont have to worry about fixing the place or cleaning up after your self.  They hire someone for those things.

 

 

Spring Activites

The heart of spring is the rebirth of all things after a long hard winter.   This isn’t to say that you haven’t enjoyed winter or the things that come with it.  Maybe you’re a fan of snowboarding, skiing or sitting by the fireplace.  There’s nothing wrong with any of these things.  You may also be someone that prefers to be outside with the warmer weather and do those activities that are enjoyable only in the spring.  If this seems like something that you’d enjoy, consider some of these spring activities and get back to being active.

Water!

Water is a broad topic, which is why I chose it.  Consider that you can once again start swimming, canoeing, kayaking, triathlon, scuba diving or going to the beach.  Water activities are something that most everyone enjoys some part of.  Consider changing things up and trying something new where the waters concerned.  And remember, water activities don’t have to be limited to outdoors.  There are gyms with pools where you can do water aerobics, take swimming lessons and other exercise classes that will help you to become trip.

 

Mountains!

Mountains are also something that is a broad topic.  You can camp, fish, hike, backpack and explore.  Any of which can be done at a leisurely pace, or more intense if you’re in to competition or challenging yourself.  Taking a trip to the mountains can allow for you to see nature at it’s finest.  If you chose to go to the mountains earlier in the season, you’ll be able to catch nature transitioning from winter to spring.  It’s a beautiful site to see natural waterfalls.

 

Dry Land!

If you’re one that prefers to not be on the water and not going to the mountains, consider that you can do things on dry land.  There’s biking, walks and even planting a garden.  Each of which have their own merits to make your life more enjoyable.  As with the other two categories, dry land will allow for you to spend time with your family and build memories of those fun and exciting events that you did.

The Down Side!

While all of these activities are fun, if you’re not careful you’ll end up needing medical attention.  Don’t forget that you no longer have a tan and that sun can burn you quick and easy.  You’re going to need to make sure that you use sunscreen on the kids AND YOU!  The you is important, because parents tend to remember to take care of their children, but often forget to take care of themselves.  If you get a bad burn, you can go to an urgent care and there are things that they can do to help.  The same is true for sprains, breaks and any number of other accidents that can happen when you go from being inactive in the winter to active in the spring.

Remember to start off slow and warm up.  If you should get injured places like Boca Regional Urgent Care are there for you!
