A Staycation Holiday

When you scroll through social media during the holidays, you’ll probably see pictures of your friends enjoying a vacation.     1     they’re lounging on the beach at an all-inclusive resort, kissing in front of the Eiffel Tower, or smiling while wearing their mouse ears at Disney, your mind shifts into vacation mode. But you are about to search for airline tickets, hotels, and rental cars    2     you have a reality check by taking a peek at your budget and bank account balance.

You know a trip like that is not included in your budget. It’s time to skip stressful and costly travel plans and create a    3    (troublesome) staycation instead!

If you choose staycations, travel expenses    4    (minimize), including airline tickets, rental cars, accommodations, and eating out. But there are many more benefits to a staycation than just saving money.

When you are not troubled with spending a day or more with air travel or driving at each end of your vacation, it’s like    5    (receive) a few bonus days off!

No time is wasted over checking in at the airport or standing at the rental car desk. No worrying about checking out of your rental property or hotel and sitting around all day waiting for a flight to come home. Also, you won’t have to worry about the jet lag you might be caught with when flying across time zones on vacation.

Besides, weather can turn your dream vacation    6     a nightmare. With a staycation, flights will not be canceled. Or spend days amusing the kids in the hotel room when all you packed was sunscreen and sand toys for the beach. Instead, you create a list of things you can do near home for different kinds of weather. Picnics at the lake or local park, catching an afternoon movie, visiting local attractions, or going on a wine tour can all be scheduled around    7    (forecast) temperatures.

Getting out and picking strawberries at a local farm, stopping in the new cafés which recently have been opened, or spending a day at a local children’s museum are great ways    8    (invest) in your local community, and have a great time with your family.

Remember to spend some chill time too-catching up on a television show, reading books, and good old fashioned rest. You can also make space to do the lists of projects that are being worked on and visit local restaurants and places    9     you often move down your list of priorities.

You might realize a successful staycation doesn’t    10     cost a lot but it can be regarded as an excellent way to spend your vacation days.
