Big Hitter
Monday, December 12th, 2011My dad really likes going on golf holidays.
He has been a golf enthusiast since before I was born, and he is terrific at it now. Occasionally if I accompany him I am amazed by the distance that he can drive his golfball, and it rarely lands in the rough as my shots frequently do.
One time when we were out, I managed 15 strokes on the 8th alone!
My aunt adores going for spa holidays. She likes to be made a fuss of and to unwind away from the hectic pace of her work. She does work extremely hard therefore when she takes a vacation she loves to just chill out, instead of rushing round seeing stuff. And what more enjoyable means by which to unwind than by going to spend time at a spa?.
There are pals I know who love fishing holidays.
They are never happier than standing beside a river having to wait for ages to land a fish. I am able to sympathize with why they might enjoy that, particularly if they’re somewhere boasting beautiful landscape. My mate Steve went to Scandinavia to fish there, and he said the scenery was wonderful, and so was the girl he travelled with!
From my point of view, the perfect vacations are ecotourism holidays. I need to see the pristine bits of the planet before they’re ruined too.
It is crucial that when on vacation I know that I’m not merely another foolish holiday-maker, but rather that I am actually learning about the native civilization and geography. I booked a Scandinavian holiday in 2008 and it was fabulous.
My brother’s passion is adventure holidays.
He’s that kind of bloke.
He used to be in the army, and he’s constantly chock-full of energy. He really likes wind-surfing and regularly goes around the world to do it, but next year he is going walking in the Norwegian sub-Arctic.
