Frugal vacation, frugal lovely experience.

Hello dear mylotters, after 15 years of our honey money, my husband and I planned a frugal vacation for both of us. Just two of us alone, for 5 days. After 15 years, alone again. We were together and alone at the beach for a 5 day vacation. We needed it, our relationship needed it. We were very stressed, I cried for nothing, he cried for nothing. Children were stressing me. I felt my nerves in crisis, I felt very anxious. I felt anxious with my mother, with my brother and her wife. We just decided it three weeks ago. We planned it in two weeks. Being alone. How many money are we going to need? Didn´t matter, just enough to sleep and eat. What were we going to do? Didn´t matter, we just needed to be alone. What were we going to talk about? Didn´t matter, if we love us, and we have lived 15 years together we would find something to talk about. We had 5 wonderful days. We drove together 8 hours to the beach, I drove 3 hours, and he drove 5. We were updated, because the hotel we payed was remodelling. We were updated to a better one. And we drove back again both. We exercised by the morning, we ran 8 milles daily together, we swimmed, we ate at the supermarket prepared food, we splashed into the sea. I`d like to pay for a expensive and elegant dinner, but I just remembered it was not the time for it. I thought about children at home and their needs. What I want to discuss, is that many times we just stop of planning and pampering our marriage because of the expensive costs. But there are ways to have frugal vacations, or frugal experiences, and pamper our love. It`s a worthy investment. Have you had some frugal vacation, or frugal nice lovely experience?? Happiness is not always tied with expensive costs. Don`t you think so?
