| 0:00.0 | You're on the virtue separate vacations. We have talked about this before going on like |
| 0:06.8 | a solo vacation and maybe spending some time with yourself, which I endorse. I think |
| 0:13.5 | Mo is on into it now also, right? |
| 0:15.4 | I did it once to go to Puerto Rico. It took me a lot to build up the courage to do it, |
| 0:19.2 | but once I did it, I loved it. Don't have to consult with anybody on decisions about |
| 0:23.6 | dinner. You can change your mind. It's glorious, glorious, glorious. |
| 0:26.4 | However you want, but how about when you're talking about breaking up the family with separate |
| 0:31.5 | vacations, which is the email that we got here. Hey guys, this one might be more for Bert, |

| 1:13.6 | love to snorkel, do all the outside stuff. My daughter and I, hey, the beach, but we do share a |
| 1:21.6 | love for plays, musical, the arts, which my husband and my son cannot stand. Do you have any families |
| 1:29.4 | that take separate vacations? Seems weird not to make memories together, but inevitably, |
| 1:35.1 | two of us hate the vacations we all take together, and they just aren't fun. Any advice? 1, |
| 1:41.2 | 855 Bert, show if you guys do this routinely. Okay, so what she's referring to in the top part |
| 1:47.6 | of this is that yeah, I've got a son that's in college and he doesn't enjoy the vacations that we |
| 1:52.6 | go on. So there's me, my youngest son, there's my fiance and her daughter and we love going to |
