Vacation Recovery
August 23rd, 2010

Upon inquiring how a friend’s travels went, how many times have you gotten the reply “I need a vacation to recover from my vacation”, or something along those lines? I know I’ve uttered this phrase more than once. I often find that I keep myself just as busy on vacation, if not more so, than I do in my day to day life at home. Why? Because I don’t want to miss anything! As I figure I’m not the only one in this boat (no pun intended for you cruisers), I thought I’d share a few tips of how I’ve managed to return from vacation and still able to function at work that week. And before anyone says it, no, vacation is not, in fact, my work. At least not all of the time.

Getting there: I can sleep pretty well almost anywhere. Nike air max 270 outlet Anywhere, that is, except on a plane. This means that on every trip requiring an overnight flight, I land in my destination with maybe two to three hours of sleep if I’m lucky. It’s not a matter of not being tired. It’s a combination of the time difference (even though it’s morning when landing, it’s usually middle for my body clock) and the fact that nose-to-knees isn’t exactly my favorite sleeping position. For me, it’s critical to make up my sleep within the first few days. coque samsung galaxy a5 There are variety of tips out there for overcoming jet lag. coque iphone boutique en ligne nike My choice is to just go to bed incredibly early – usually around 7 or 8 PM – and just make up as much sleep as I can the first night. www.miseopoint.fr fjallraven kanken big backpack purple Whatever trick you use, make up this sleep early on.

It might be that I just sightsee at a more relaxed pace, or I might choose to sit at a cafe for a few hours where I can drink coffee and people watch. Sometimes I take advantage of the hotel spa.
