How Do You Travel?
Most people nowadays seem to want everything to happen in a
hurry. When they want it they want it right now and nothing
should delay the process of getting it. This is also very true
when it comes to going on vacation, just hop on an airplane and
you are there. Very few are willing to spend a few days in a car
or on a bus in order to get where they are going. Of course this
time spent on the road trying to get there will take a few days
of you actually being able to spend at your destination.
This is so true but at times half the experience can actually be
what happens on the trip there. Ok, a bus might not be the most
comfortable way of traveling but you sure can have a lot of
interesting things happen while on that bus, not to mention all
the different people you get to meet. Surely you meet people on
an airplane too but still it is not the same. On a plane you are
probably heading for the same destination and are probably going
to see the same sights.
Traveling by bus you will meet people going everywhere because
they will be changing busses in the different cities you will be
stopping in. Generally you will also meet people from all walks
of life on these trips and believe it or not you can learn a
great deal from listening to their experiences. You can at times
be amazed to hear what some of these people have encountered on
their travels thru life, not only on that bus. Traveling by bus
is also a way to be able to see the country without having to be
behind the wheel yourself.
Have you ever even considered taking a train ride? For people
with kids this can be a wonderful way of traveling since you are
actually able to get up and move around. Besides, what child has
not dreamt of riding on a train which at times will take you
where no car or bus can go plus there is that excitement of
being able to spend the night on it while you are traveling at
high speed. Nothing is more soothing than to fall asleep in a
sleeping wagon to the chugging of a train engine.
Another great way of traveling is by boat, no matter if it is a
big cruise liner or a much smaller boat. The unpredictable
waters can give you a ride of a lifetime. The thrill of going on
an ice breaker in the middle of a winter storm can not be
explained, only experienced. This also goes for being in deck on
a beautiful summer night were all you can see is water no matter
which direction you are looking in. Sometimes things can feel a
little scary but it sure is an adventure you will never forget.
With this maybe you will reconsider before jumping on that
airplane in order to hurry up and reach your destination. Travel
and vacationing is so much more than just getting there and
enjoying your 14 days before hopping back on that plane so you
can hurry back to work. Try not to be in such a hurry, enjoy
your time of and experience some of the different ways of
traveling to your vacation destination.
