Would you rather...

[Clarity]

Thanks so much guys for your feedback, it really gives us a lot to think about.

It seems like the overwhelming response is B - two trips to Negril (for one week each.) woo hoo! I wiiin!

EXCEPT for those that fly out of west coast like we do... you guys chose A.

Hmmmmm...

It's true that the long commute steals days away from the trip. We would fly overnight from SF to get there, so that's not too bad. Time sleeping doesn't count for us...but The flight back is almost an entire vacation day lost. In total, it's about 17 hours in the air both ways.

and I don't even really care about that because every night since I've returned from Negril I've dreamt about this:



and I don't think I can wait 300+ days to swim in those waters again. It just feels so far away.

On the flipside, So far almost everyone said that they go for at least 10 days. I've never experienced a vacation for that length.

Am I really missing out?? Does anyone go for just seven days? (or six like our last stretch?) Maybe I need to just suck it up and wait it out.

and there is no C. option for us. (i.e. 2 week vacation 2 times a year) I get exactly 10 days of vacation time per year. When you factor in the weekends, that's 2 weeks.

Sweetness - what a dream that would be to take a year. Working three jobs must have been so hard, but it sounds like the pay off was worth it. I can only imagine how life-changing that must have been!
