This concept is known as the “day-cation.”
-Leave. Explore. Enjoy. Return in the same day.
Embrace this concept. It has the potential to break up long weeks and refresh the body and mind.
Suggested Packing List:
Your own music creation
Create a play list that will set a carefree, sunny tone throughout the day.
A perfect example--this video never fails to make me smile : )
Sunglasses
Because staring directly into the sun is only fun for about two seconds.
Cellular Device
Just in case you already used “50/50” and “ask the audience,” phoning a friend is helpful when you seem to have lost your sense of direction.
Milk Money
Remember to bring money for lunch. Your tummy will thank you.
An Extra Pair of Socks
You just never know when you might step in mud. This applies to jeans and t-shirts as well. Try to pack an extra pair of essential clothing in case of unfortunate weather mishaps*
Camera
Be a tourist. Document everything.
Keys
They start your car, it would be wise not to forget them.
*In case of unfortunate weather mishaps, please enjoy them; don’t turn sour. If it rains, go dance in it—you packed extra clothes, so no worries ; )
But the most important bullet on the packing list is….
A FRIEND.
Please do not venture alone. First, it is safer. If you are taking a day-cation to a spontaneous location you do not want to be alone; mis-adventures happen, and it is much better to have someone to share them with. Second, it is more fun—you need a car-singing buddy anyway.
Easy enough, right? Now venture. Have fun, un-wind and feel the breeze run through your hair as you roll your car windows down and play your music to where your voice seems to be in perfect harmony with the artist.
Last week I ventured out on my own day-cation with Mr. Michael Kent. Instead of telling you how our day went, please enjoy living it along with us through the wonderful world of photographic images.
