As soon as you arrive at your destination you most likely hit the ground running and set out to see all the sights possible. Nikki and I are no different in that regard, as soon as we check into our hotel we are ready to take in all that the destination has to offer. Sometimes however, you have to sit back and relax, take a break from all the sightseeing and other activities.

There is probably no better way to do this than sitting in a beautiful park or garden and take in the fresh air and atmosphere, unless of course you're in the Caribbean and enjoy the seaside.
