Vacations aren't what they used to be...

Life, work and our everyday routines bring a desire for a break, a vacation, a short sojourn.

Most people  are victims of such devices as Ipod's , blackberries, Iphones  and the simple cell phone itself. These devices do more than make phone calls they  can do everything from photograph your child's first steps, , videotaping a news event right in front of you, videoconferencing with friends and family, texting and even playing games like scrabble with people halfway around the world...

People are attached to their electronic cyber devices.

Going on vacation these days no longer means a break from everyday life, from phone calls to visits with business associates, friends and family, people take their stresses with them.

The greatest vacation these days  is not a trip on an overcrowded and overpriced airplane, to an overcrowded and overpriced hotel, then onto the overcrowded and overrated restaurants or  even cruise ships in the middle of the Ocean.

The best vacation these days may just be a week off from the stresses brought on by the life of cyber- electronic devises, or should I say vices.
