Short or Long Trip, That is the Question
Analysis is my forte, as you can now no doubt see.
Not thtat I am that good at it, just that I tend to
analyze and re-analyze, and over-analyze.
Currently I am trying to decide the best duration
of the trip. Let’s say it is Europe that I go to.
How long should I go for?
Maybe I have thought about this, but if I have
considered this issue, I do not remember what
my conclusion was.
If I go for a week, I could afford to spend more,
since the duration of the trip would be shorter.
If I stay a long time, cost becomes a major issue
unless I find a great deal some place that makes
it as cheap as staying at home.
The one problem I see with a short trip is that just
traveling within America, I have been subjected
to the rigors of jet lag and it was not pretty. Just
imagine if I had a major time change like going
to Europe. It could take me days to recover.
And by the time I was in the right time zone,
my body and I, it would be time to come
home. What a waste of a trip.
One idea might be to do some kind of an
interim stop-over en route to adjust to the
time change. Perhaps in Iceland?
Of course, that might mean that I would need
to buy 2 sets of tickets. One ticket to Iceland,
and the next ticket from Iceland. That might
double the cost. Besides, is there anything
to do in Iceland? It could be ruggedly
beautiful, but I admit I have no friends from
Iceland and no knowledge about it.
