A ton. My parents travel a lot. 2 a year would be conservative. I love traveling and Covid has cut that shite more than in half for me. It sucks.

Went to Pensacola twice. Houston/College Station, TX (evacuated there during Katrina) kinda seemed like a vacation for 12 year old me. We were pretty poor growing up.

Nearly every summer from age 4 onward. The beach or six flags at first. Later we went out west and hit the national parks. Our longest vacation was a three week excursion that made it up to Calgary. About a 4400 mile round trip.

Minimum 1 week ? Probably zero.
Only went on one ‘destination’ vacation i can remember , which was WDW when i was like 7 , but for just a few days.. … but lots of long weekends to Pensacola , Destin and Biloxi (i know).. and a couple trips to Astroworld in Houston, each less than a week.. also one 2 or 3 week vacation to New England, but i was only 2 yrs old (though i do remember parts of it)…. And lots of trips to visit my mom’s family in West Virginia, which doesn’t seem like much of a ‘vacation’ but i loved it as a kid since we got to see snow and hills.. so i dont really feel like i was deprived as a kid even though had very few traditional vacations .

If Senior Trip counts, 4.
The other three were family trips to the mountains.

You're not going to get a lot of work done being out a week, baw.
Posted on 4/22/22 at 3:11 pm to Billy Blanks
About 30.

Zero. I probably didn't take a real vacation until I was about 36ish.

As long as I can remember we would take a week long vacation to Northern Wisconsin before school started. The only times we didn't do this is when we went to Disney one year and then a trip along the Mississippi River to watch a bunch of minor league games.

18. We went to St. Pete-Tampa almost every single summer for 1-2 weeks. But never went anywhere else during the year (which I hated). We also always went with extended family so after awhile it became a shitshow.
I upset the family this year when I told them we’re not going with them to Florida for a couple of years so we can save up for a trip overseas and do some other shorter trips throughout the year.

Like week long vacations, maybe two or three. Lots of weekend trips and such.
Most people I grew up around were middle class and didn't take vacations every year. Or maybe a long weekend trip to Grand Isle or Astroworld was their summer vacation.
We drove everywhere when we went on vacation. Even if it was 1k miles one way.

Show is on the doll where the gAggies touched you.

10-12 maybe (not counting 3 day weekends in Jacksonville or Savannah). A few trips to PCB for spring break, a few trips to Daytona Beach, a few trips to Vegas.

Not a single one that didn’t involve going to my uncle’s house for the annual family reunion.

Does being sent away count, or did you have to be with immediate family?

Same here. One of the few long vacations we took I wanted to stay home. It missed three baseball games, which for a 10 year old is an eternity.
