Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks for the things we cherish the most in life like our family, our friends, ...that one guy at Chick-fil-a who gave you 14 nuggets instead of 12. It's also the time where we spend endless hours planning "family visit" logistics, a full day cooking (and basically a full day cleaning) ...which takes up our ENTIRE Thanksgiving break. And let's not forget to mention the turkey-induced food comas (ok, maybe that part is a positive), your aunt’s unsolicited life advice, and the annual debate over whether cranberry sauce should be canned or homemade (spoiler: both taste like arguments).
So, what if instead of fighting over who gets the last dinner roll this year, this year you and your family were sipping a piña colada on the beach? Here's why booking a vacation over Thanksgiving break might just be what your family needs:
Forget wrestling a 20-pound bird at 5 a.m. This year, let someone else cook while you lounge by the pool or stroll the shore of a picture-perfect beach. Plus, you can focus your time and energy on those you care about most.
#2 - Built-in Vacation Days
Most schools and offices give a long weekend, so you can stretch it into a guilt-free getaway without burning through all your PTO. Consider it the universe’s way of saying, “Go on, treat yourself.”
#3 - Family Time, Without the Folding Chairs
You know what’s more fun than cramming 20 relatives around a wobbly table? Creating memories with your loved ones somewhere new.
#4 - Gobble Up Experiences, Not Just Calories
Sure, mashed potatoes are great, but experiences fill your soul in a way gravy never could.
Who says Thanksgiving has to mean turkey and football? Why not start your own tradition, like zip-lining in Jamaica, strolling through a European holiday market, or toasting with margaritas in Mexico instead?
This year, instead of loosening your belt after dinner, how about loosening your schedule with a vacation? Because nothing says “thankful” quite like watching the sun set in paradise, while everyone else fights over the wishbone.
