Back in the days of cheap fuel and slide film my uncle who worked for 
American Airlines (and still does) went on vacation allot.  This was a 
curious thing for a kid who's parents never went anywhere outside a 50 mile 
radius.  Upon his return a slide show was always to be expected, about 2 
hours worth.  The only real problem was that he never really went anywhere 
interesting and always mostly took pictures of cars, motorcycles, and 
sunsets.  As a result I can name the make and model of most sport cars and 
bikes pre 75.

And so the tradition continues but with heavy editing (that sounds 
dirty).  Sometimes the quality of your vacation is positively associated 
with how little you do.  In my case I sat and watched the hills and sky for 
10 days with either a beer, Leica, or Zeiss in my hand.
