Our family vacations were always jam packed with something and consisted of me, mom, my grandparents, my uncle and aunt, and their granddaughter.  We could never agree on the same things so we often had breakfast together then me, mom, aunt, and cousin would go out in one group and my grandparents and uncle would go do their own thing.  Then meet up for dinner and do things together in the evening.  I don't even think I got an afternoon nap LOL.  The only concession they gave me, and it was for the sake of a relaxing family vacation, was that we would stay at a place with a pool.  Didn't matter if it had a slide or was inside or out...I had to have a swimming pool (it was also simpler times).  If I behaved during the day then I was allowed to go swimming at night before bed.  Good enough for me.  Ha!  But because I was so used to all the vacations being "go, go, go" that's what I like to do now.  I drive my husband crazy because I just can't sit and relax any place.  I literally have to be moving all the time lol.  Luckily, I don't have kids because I would be totally outnumbered with them against me and my overplanned spreadsheets
