Kristine, congratulations on quitting. I quite 10 months ago right after I came back from my last trip to Jamaica, so this will be my first vacation as a non-smoker. Can’t say I do not miss it at times but I am looking forward to not always worrying on how and when I can have a cigarette while traveling. Bitter sweet I guess

I am also looking forward to walks, so thanks everyone for the great info. I was also wondering about running, especially on the road. Do you have to mindful of stray dogs, if so what is the best advise? It is an issue here on our country roads.

Thanks much
