I don't want to go to Vancouver

Going to Vancouver for 3 days to go to a wedding of people I don't even know, is not a vacation. Going to Las Vegas, there's a vacation. Hiking the Canada trail in BC, there's a vacation. Going to Europe or Mexico, that's a vacation. Why is this so hard to understand? No I don't want to take 3 days off work to spend 2 days in a car and 3 days in Vancouver attending functions. Where's the relaxing part of this? Where's the fun?

I've been to Vancouver before and while that was fun, I have no real desire to go back. We went to the aquarium and Stanley Park and the Olive Garden. The weather was windy and cool and rainy. Now if you know me, you know I like the sun, and warm and not rainy. I'll go and I'll drop $400 in the mall, come back with new clothes and not have any sort of relaxing of vacationy type things that I will have accomplished on this trip. What's the point?

Many a time I've mentioned real vacations, and either I don't have anyone to go with or can't go with specific people because of controversy. Well my friend, it's time for a vacation, a real vacation. Not one of these, we're going anyways so I guess it counts as a vacation vacation.

In fact lets post the definition of a vacation on here, shall we?
