Americans and their "perfect" vacations:
- A new survey finds that six in 10 Americans believe their “perfect” vacation exists here in the U.S. and it reveals what it takes to create it.
- The trip would last 11 days, be at least three hours away from home, and prioritize food, relaxation and good weather.
- For nearly two-thirds (63%), that perfect getaway is at the beach, while 53% prefer the great outdoors, and 43% would spend it in a major city.
The moment I knew they were the one:
- "When he blurted out that he loved me so much (for the very first time) during a quick lunch date because we had just found out we both hated eggnog.
- "She drove on our first date. I was looking through her CD collection and found Tenacious D. I just put it in the CD player and we did car karaoke through the whole album."
- "After dating and living together for three years, I tried to think about my future, and I could not for the life of me picture a future without her in it. So I knew, and over 25 years later, the best part of our day is getting to see each other."
- "We were long-distance. When we met for the first time after eight months of talking. They knew I was allergic to flowers, so they got me broccoli (my favorite vegetable) stalks wrapped in ribbon.
- "We left his house to go out somewhere, and he told his dog in a totally normal voice, 'We're going out now, we will be back soon.' There was not an ounce of embarrassment about talking to his dog like he was people in front of his new girlfriend. I knew there and then he was a keeper."
Best time to travel for Memorial Day weekend.
Second date update: Eric and Pam take a stroll at Baker Beach. He had a great time, she has ghosted. It had something to do with his shorts.
