INTRODUCTION

Sometimes getting away means going to a nice hotel or Bed & Breakfast to rest, while other times you way want something that will actually get your adrenaline going.

For those of you who are interested in an active vacation, opportunities abound. You can take short or long hikes (which you can combine with camping). Some of you may choose an alternative mode of transportation, such as a bicycle, motorcycle, or perhaps even horseback or other animals such as llamas.

The true adventurers among you may opt to go rock climbing, rappel down a cliff or go under/above ground (i.e. go scuba or sky diving).
