While vacations may not always be affordable or people just simply do not have the time, everyone can still use one. Instead of settling with the acceptance that you are not going on a vacation this summer, why not create your own? Yesterday, the fourth of July, the beach would have been my first choice to spend the gorgeous day. But a great idea came to mind as an alternative. I have really been wanting to get away so I decided to create the illusion that I was on a vacation. There were so many choices. Where did I want to go? I finally settled on a Dominican Republic/Puerto Rico vibe.
Create your own mock getaway by following these key steps: 1. Pick a beautiful sunny day.
2. Get a few plants to create the mood.
Conveniently I already had some palm plants and hibiscus flowers on my back deck.
3. Play appropriate music for the destination of your choice.
4. Prepare a food of the culture.(Ex: fresh cut pineapple)
5. Make yourself an appropriate drink.
Enjoy your getaway :)
