I usually stay home for the holidays, but my new girlfriend said that we should go on a trip this year for Christmas instead of dealing with all the family drama.
We’ve only been dating for a couple of weeks and I don’t want to spend Christmas without her.
I still think it’s probably a little bit too soon to take her to meet my mom and dad. I thought that the holiday getaway was the perfect idea, because we didn’t have to deal with either one of those situations. I made plans for my girlfriend and I to take a 6-hour flight to a tropical island location where lots of people like to go during the winter holidays. Temperatures on the island are 80 5° or warmer and the sun shines all day. I was happy with the accommodations that we picked out. We were in a four-star hotel with a view of the water and a full-service breakfast every morning that was included with the price of our room. We had a view of the pool outside and a balcony where the two of us could smoke cigarettes and sit outside to listen to the sound of the ocean waves. Our room had all of the comforts of home, including a central heating and air conditioning system. We used the central AC while we were there. I thought it was too warm and humid to go without the air conditioner and that was a change, considering the fact that it was only 30° on the day that we left home and we were running the gas furnace constantly.
