Vacation At Home – Do You Take Those?
Sometimes I feel I get so overloaded that I overlook the main reason I have started working online – provide additional comfort to my family!
This past week I have taken pretty much entire week to do some family chores and enjoy as much time with my wife and kids as possible! And since we did it without leaving anywhere it was a bit challenging but manageable!
Vacation at home is possible – how do you take those?
This post is really short and designed to be used as quick brain storming session with you – my reader. How do you personally take advantage of all that is available in your local area and keep in mind, visiting places with kids one of whom is toddler is not easy for the daddy 
In this past week we managed to:
- … spend time on the beach
- … spend one day in Ocean Breeze water park in Virginia Beach
- … spend day in Bush Gardens (Williamsburg)
- … going again to the beach in just couple hours from now!
And here is my family and I in Bush Gardens:
Needless to say that day in picture above, while being a blast – is not too restful
So, here is my question – How Do You Take Vacation at Home? What did you do last time?
Take it away!

Vacation At Home – Do You Take Those? http://bit.ly/J5ViF
I’m not much for the beach but little in-house vacations are great. My partner and I have a little splurge now an then and buy some exotic food, spend the morning cooking a nice meal and lounge around for the rest of the day.
Just gotta make sure I can keep myself away from work

I AM VERY AGREED WITH YOUR POINT BUT I HAVE SOMETHING DIFFERENT BECAUSE I HAVE MY OWN OFFICE IN THE HOUSE SO I WONT SPENT MY VACATIONS IN THE HOUSE BUT PREFER TO GO FOR OUTSIDE!
Vacations are really like by every one and they prefer to enjoy it very much. The info given by you is very much interesting and i enjoyed reading it.
I turn my computer off (ooo, that’s hard!) and PLAN, like you, several outings, several projects, and time with books and movies. With a toddler, I plan time on the floor! Good for you Alex – you deserve a vacation – and I like the new look of your bolg too. Lovely family, by the way
It is needed to have a good vacation and i am sure you need to relax a bit. You have worked so hard and i am sure you may have pissed a bit with your work.

Alex it is great to see that you are taking some time off. I usually just go for day trips. I load my kayak on the car, grab my camera and off to the lake I go. If I am really ambitious and wake up super early to beat the traffic to LA and Orange County I will go to Newport Beach and kayak the back bay or the harbor area, to see how the “other half” lives.
I think when I do make as much money as those people must that I would still prefer to live where I have at least the size lot I have now, and a beautiful mountain view.
My vacations where I spend a lot of money and travel somewhere are few and far apart.
However a real treat would be to attend one of your workshops. I hope I can do that one day.

Hi,
I read your article and I really wanted to say something about “vacation at home”.If you ask me if it exist I can tell you for sure it doesn’t exist!not in my familly!cause everytime we spend our vacation at home we realise that we have to clean the house, to change something in a certain room,to cut the grass, or some of our relatives that we don’t even know want to visit us!!!!!!!! So for me “vacation at home” is a myth.

Hi Alex
Nice photo of you and your family – but next time tell them all to SMILE and look happy for the camera!
You look as though your either fed up or bored stiff (LOL)
Perhaps your wife thinks you’re better off at work?
I can’t remember the last time we took a break – since getting into this internet marketing thing and working all the hours of the day and night to get it together, now I have a website up maybe it’s time to take a short break!!
Yeah-Right, no chance of that yet until we start to see an income(LOL)
Take care

P.S. Alex – only kidding! (honest)
Man, have you tried walking in 90@ F heat for a whole day with 2 year old
We are all just tired 
with all the issue in the economy right now a lot of travel agencies and companies in my area are focusing on stay-cations to keep the money within our own country.
