Ours was in April. We drove to Charleston, SC to visit one of his friends and her family.
Let's see what happened: We got a must appear speeding ticket in North Carolina!
His friend was 2 hours late meeting us, took us to a chain retaurant for dinner and requested separate checks.
Torrential rain storm that blew out the cable for the rest of the week.
Dinner at friends mothers house where the second thing her step father said to me was an insult about where I grew up.
Horrendous traffic on the way home. It took us 2 hours to go 12 miles!

Re: What was your worst vacation??
Our first vacation, Cancun. I dont really want to say it was bad just bad for him. I forgot to put sunblock on his chest and he got really badly burned. he was a lobster. Could have stuck a fork in him, he was done.
He couldnt put his shoes on because he couldnt bend over, he slept in the shower because the cool water as the only thing that helped.
He was miserable for the last 3 days of our vacation.
But I am such a wonderful person I left him alone in the hotel room to soak in the cold tub and went to go watch Say what kareoke with 2 people we wound up becoming friends with from the plane.

Re: What was your worst vacation??
Mine was a trip to FL with my hubby (then FH) and his buddies from his fraternity. They played poker all night and drank until they smelled like skunks, and then thought it would be great to do a 4-hr night fishing trip. Well, I get sea sick just looking at the water, so I spent the 4-hrs on the calmest of waters feeding the fishes...... Then we had a fight over directions on the way to the airport to catch our plane home and he wouldn't talk to me the whole plane ride home....

Re: What was your worst vacation??
A camping trip to Lake George when I was 7 months pregnant. He was annoyed every time I made him stop to use the bathroom, his friends set up camp and had no food, no water, no soda .....just beer! We got shipwrecked on Long Island (in the middle of Lake George) and had to pay to have his boat towed and fixed! It was a total disaster!
the only thing I can think of is going to Niagra Falls with my parents, sister and grandmother
the car overheated on the bridge going to Canada...where you cannot stop...we ran out of gas (although rolled into a gas station)
on the way home...we didn't bring my grandmothers papers that she was a US citizen and since she had a thick German accent they didn't believe her until they asked me (I was 9 - I guess they know that kids will tell the truth?)
then the car broke down on the way home...and I fell asleep in the back and my sister and dad saw a shooting star while waiting for the tow truck (I missed it! )
needless to say we got a new car that year...

Re: What was your worst vacation??
OK.... my 25th birthday I was working for a very large multiple location 'nightclub' and me & about 35 girls went to Coco's. I had about 42 shots of lemon drops & 2 bottles of champagne, which my girls bought me. I woke up 2 days later in Maine & had no idea how I got there & no idea how I was getting home.
That was the worst vacation ever!

Re: What was your worst vacation??
my boss felt bad (it turned out to be a prank) & sent his limo to come get me & sent one of the girls too, so I wouldn't be alone for the whole drive!

Re: What was your worst vacation??
No, my boss had given us his limo for the night & I got so wasted they though it would be funny (?) to send me to this remote town in maine....something 'Landing' where they really *hate* NYers & leave me there..... I woke up in this B&B.
So I freaked & called my boss to see if the limo driver knew who told him to bring me to Maine...etc... & he felt bad after & sent him back to get me. It was awful.
My boss felt so bad afterwards he sent me & my friends to dinner and a play in NYC & stayed for the night at The Waldorf in a suite. So I guess it made it better.
Now I laugh when I think about it, but I was NOT happy at the time....

Re: What was your worst vacation??
Christine - We flew to San Juan and took the ship out from there. Your luggage is supposed to be checked at the airport and transported directly on the ship. You get your luggage at your cabin door. I waited all night until one hour before we set sail and I was among twenty other people looking for their luggage. As it turned out, it arrived with me on the plane to San Juan, but sat there and never was transported to the ship. The first day we were at sea so I still didnt have it. Then the first island, the plane flying in to the island from San juan was too heavy to add my luggage so I think it made it to the next island. I had EVEYTHING in one bag. I know, how stupid of me. It was hard to enjoy the tri pwith no clothes
