This is what we decided long ago was important to us - spending quality time with each other somewhere (anywhere) away from home and the realities of daily life. It's an awesome way to really celebrate our love and commitment to each other. So much better than some "gift" if you ask my wife or me. The gifts are eventually forgotten - the trips are not!
