If you should suddenly feel a great urge to quit your job, sell your home, and devote your life to collecting Swiss clocks -- don't panic. It's probably just a sign that you need a vacation.

I would recommend Kauai. It's great. I'd go back in a heartbeat; only the others say they want to go to someplace "new."

If you go, you may want to consider...

  1. Get a guidebook.
  2. Sunscreen rules! I applied it 3 times during one beach session and still got a little too much sun.
  3. Lots of film. Bring twice as much as you think you'll need. You can always take the extra film home.
  4. Attend a luau. We tried "Smith's Tropical Paradise" and had a great time.
  5. Read the guidebook BEFORE going to Kauai.
