It hits you, not always gradually, but often suddenly: That overwhelming feeling that you're just too damn old to commit to certain activities, especially while on vacation.
For those who are, say, 30 and above, there are certain activities--i.e. not just sitting and reading quietly in the sun and/or spending time running around after kids--that seem off limits, stupid even.
Herewith, 7 things you're likely not to partake in if all you want is a restful and sunburn-free vacation.
1. Banana Boating. While watching a speed boat dragging teenagers behind them on a tube while on a recent vacation, we couldn't help but wonder,"God, don't their backs hurt?"
2. Jet-skiing. Kind of like banana boating, but just no.
3. Horseback riding. The only joy that comes from this happens when you're under 15. Sorry, but it's true.
4. ATV-ing. Not only is this stupid, it's careless.
5. Not wearing sunscreen. Ok, a gimme, sure, but it's high time we all loaded up on the block.
6. Getting so drunk you can't enjoy the daytime. And no, the sun does not have an on/off switch.
7. Wearing anything other than a bikini, tankini or one-piece. The only people who can remotely pull off crazy bathing suits are celebrities, like Sofia Vergara.
