Congratulations! I just took my first vacation as a non-smoker too and it was incredible. The freedom from having to smoke is so fantastic! I can't believe I let cigarettes dictate my activities and the things I did. I used to choose what I did based on whether I could smoke or not. Now I can do whatever I want! And the money saved is going towards a cruise next time. I would never go on one because of the smoking. How much I missed....but I'm going to make up for it now!

Welcome Back Kare!!!! - WOW what a beautiful picture.... I am So glad you had a tremendous time and also truly enjoyed your first vacation ~ when you're routine is different, like a vacation, (no work, daily schedule,) it makes you appreciate the fact that you don't smoke even more. Wonder why that is (?) It sure allows more time to bask in your quit and be proud. That will be me next week, taking off some time to do as little as possible. Well, I am SO happy you're back ~I missed you around here and we need to get ready for Lady's 365 celebration, which is a couple of days before I hit the beach. YOU HIt 150 yesterday, CONGRATS TO YOU!!! [IMG]http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i125/CHEARNE/thStewiestrut.gif[/IMG] HaPpY DaNcE! KEWL, lots of good stuff happening here.....

Hi ItsIronic - I did the same in June - my first non-smoking vacation in a long, long time. It was amazing! and everytime I look around my husband was smoking - I have to say he looked pathetic and sad. Not ME!!!!! I loved it!
