And yea, sure, my ideal vacation would be one that involves roadtripping around, visiting national parks, hiking, being out west with nature. But DIsney was still pretty fricking awesome


I understand this. When my son gets a little older, I'm sure we'll have a blast. But I don't get the need to go every single year, and in some cases multiple times a year. My sister had a friend who is a freak about it and went with her 3 month old. Kid is less than 18 months old now and has been like 3 times. My in laws have been 4 or 5 times since I've known my wife (8 years) and only once did their kids go with them. I just don't get that.

But same can be said for anything. My parents constantly do the same thing for vacations because they're comfortable with it (not Disney). I don't get that either. I'm not spending money to do the same thing all the time. Sure I'll do something more than once, but if I found that one thing that's good, just imagine how much more great stuff is out there in the world.

Yep. Just look at all the people who do the beach every year as their vacation.

I like the beach, but we just booked a 4-day weekend trip at the end of June in Orange Beach and the prices shocked me. I spent $500 LESS on two flights and 5-night hotel stay on the Magnificent Mile in Chicago than we are spending on 3 nights in an oceanfront condo in Orange Beach. And that was one of the cheapest non-shitholes I could find on VRBO.

This is exactly why I haven't been to the beach since June 2011.

Af for Disney, I know I would have fun going back as an adult. But it seems that the only way to have fun is to meticulously plan every hour you'll be there. I just don't have a desire to do that for a vacation.
