If you have been wishing you had more time to enjoy your spouse or your family, one of the best things you can do during the summer is take a trip (or better yet – to take many trips!), but one of the reasons why people do not end up taking the trips they want to take is because they “don’t have time” with work. Of course, as far as the ability to take trips goes, many people actually have a lot more time than they realize; when you start taking overnight trips (two days and one night) on weekends, you will be able to make the most of your weekends, take a number of trips, and make memories that will last for a long time to come.

One idea that is always terrific for an overnight trip is visiting a bed & breakfast; while a bed & breakfast can certainly work on a trip with the whole family, this is an optimal escape for a couple, as it gives them a chance to hide away in a quiet, cozy place where they can simply enjoy one another!

One idea for an overnight trip that is great for the whole family – and is even better when you go with another family you are friends with – is renting a sailboat or a house boat for a couple days; regardless of whether you live near the ocean or near lakes, you can have a great time staying the night on a boat with people you enjoy.

And camping can be a fun adventure for a couple or for a family; while a week-long camping trip might be too much for everyone to handle, an overnight trip usually gives that perfect balance of enjoyment and “just the right amount of time.”

Do your best to make sure that your work is not causing you to limit your summer fun, realizing that overnight trips can be just as fun as long-term trips, and they can provide you with memories that are just as lasting!
