  1. Pool day

    Relaxing in a chair with a fruity drink on the side is a perfect way to spend a pool day. So is doing a “Who makes the biggest splash” contest or tossing a beach ball around.

Sometimes driving with no plans can make for a fun and enjoyable trip. Of course, driving to a favorite city

 or state is just as much fun. Stray from the plan a bit and see what happens.

  1. Go to the beach

    There is so much to do at the beach, so what first? Make sure to spend time shopping on the boardwalk. Visit an aquarium or go to an arcade. Spend the whole day on the beach, tanning, playing beach volleyball, or swimming in the ocean. 

 

  1. Watch a sunrise/sunset
