Never been on vacation. I'm too broke to afford one anyway. I did get suspended from work for 2 weeks, I spent it camping on a beach.

@Musicman It was very nice. Carrying my gear over the sand dunes sucked. (The camp spot was 5kms away from the car park, had to walk it.). I was able to catch enough butterfish each day. And it was coming to the end of spring so there was plenty of native fruits and veg.
A king tide during the night almost swamped me. But it was a shame I had to go back to work.

@Musicman Used to do it as often as I could. It kind of helped being the Venturer Scout leader. I'd take them up through the Flinders Rangers along the Heysen Trail. Or among the many beaches and interstate big camps.
Only once did we get to camp on the beach at the very start of the Great Bight SA. To our left an endless beach with no foot prints. To the right the majestic cliffs of the bight disappearing in the distance. With the whales swimming around. Sadly I didn't have a camera at the time. And the traditional people don't let anyone out there all that much.
