            Irritable Travel Syndrome-Do you have it, too?

            Jump to last reply Flag this topic

            My husband and I ( 26+ years married!) don't argue that much at home. But somehow when we go on vacation, we act like kids coming home from a bad playdate. We're cranky, we whine, we egg each other on.

            Some actual lines that have come out of our mouths over the years include: "Stop pretending to be French and just ask for the frigging directions!", "Remind me. Why did you think it would be fun to retrace Caesar's footsteps during a heatwave?!"Does it really matter if the wine sucked?" and finally, from me, I admit: "If you disappear one more time to get coffee during the final boarding call, I'm going to ask for sole custody of the kids!"

            What about you? Does travel bring out the best in you? The worst? Or a little bit of both?

            Thanks, from a traveler who's often NOT on her best behavior!
