The very idea of having fun on vacation without drinking can be daunting, especially for those of us who once planned our resort time around swim up bars and vineyard tours. Is it possible to have fun travelling and stay sober? How do we ensure that we have the support we need away from our usual recovery-centered routines? Whether it is a summer camping trip or a mid-winter beach getaway, vacations require a little extra planning and consideration in sobriety. On this show Jean, Amanda and Catherine recount their recent vacations and explore what worked well, what went wrong, and what they might try differently next time.

While it may be hard to enjoy vacations sober, especially if you’re going to a place where alcohol is free-flowing, you should not let that bother you. It's all a matter of creating your own fun experience, and making sure our rest and relaxation doesn't disrupt our internal routines and our health. Anyway, have fun with your plans for the summer. Cheers!
