Would You Take A 24-Hour Vacation? Book A Flight For One City & Return Home Within 24 Hours to Sleep In Your Own Bed?

The was a guest this morning who was interviewed on the CBS Morning Show and he said he does that. Said that the cost of hotel rooms etc. made it worth it. He apparently has done it dozens of times. Spoke about his recent trip to Egypt to see the pyramids etc and got a souvenir shirt and photos and returned home. Wouldn’t need to check baggage or even a carry-on bag. Maybe a shoulder bag with money, passport, and other necessities. I bet the climate change people would throw a fit about that and they never asked him in the interview about that. Or about how jet lag can set it and need to sleep and rest before doing anything. His departure was from NYC so no connecting flights.

Now if time travel was a thing I’d do it in a heartbeat, would save all that time flying back & forth if you could instantly go somewhere interesting and come back before bedtime. Could do it on your best days when you are feeling good etc. and it wouldn’t take a lot of money either, just for meals or souvenirs. I’d be going to forests and other beautiful natural areas very often.

@MayorOfCrushtown Reminds me of my sister’s idea of a roadtrip. It’s rush-rush-rush from one place to another and not taking time to linger over the best places.
@cherokeepatti Im too old to be rushing. LOL

@4meAndyou Rushing from one place to another?

@cherokeepatti Yes. It was like he was ticking off a list of places when we traveled. We would drive through, basically, so that we could say we had "been there". He was a world traveler. He kept a Goode's Atlas and drew lines in red pencil to every place he had ever traveled. It was EVERYWHERE!
