Do you prefer vacations that are more active or just simply laid back?

I like to take in the scenery. Went on a vacation in the early 80’s with my sister and brother-in-law and my sister was hell-bent on doing, doing, doing. There were several sites where it would have been good to have spent an hour or so just enjoying the area and the scenery. My sister was out to take in as much as she could & snap photos. Then fast food for every meal. Not my idea of a relaxing vacation. For example we went up the Pike’s Peak drive and didn’t spend more than 10-15 minutes at the top. It in July and really cold up there which was refreshing. They had a restaurant but nope, bought a couple postcards and back down the mountain we went.
