Earlier this week I didn't think I would be well enough to travel; but tonight I'm lying in bed in a gorgeous hotel suite looking over the ocean...and life is good. Perhaps a few days away from my couch will be good for me.
Travel for me has certainly improved since my first time around as a student. My first road trip was spent searching for a Super 8 with the lowest room rate. This time I am happily ensconced in a four star hotel, munching on the complimentary wine and cheese and I no longer have to eat all of my meals at Taco Bell...hmmm...this mature student thing isn't really all that bad.
Hopefully, I will be a good student this week and crank out my midterm paper whilst enjoying the sand and surf.
I remember taking a road trip when I was 22 and wondering how anyone could ever want anything more fancy than motel 6.
ReplyDeleteAh I was naive.
Glad you're feeling better.
