It's spring break week! Whether you're somewhere warm, somewhere cold, or just home for the break, this week gives everyone some much needed time off from the stress of school. However, what happens when you're on vacation, expecting to go to the beach, and it suddenly starts raining? Here are some ideas to keep you entertained and dry.
Go to a movie.
This is a pretty easy one to think of, but it's so perfect! There are always lots of movies that I want to see, but that I never do because I don't have the time or simply don't get around to it. So, why not go now?
Go shopping.
Pretty much every tourist location has some fun shops to keep the visitors happy, so go check them out! This can be anything from a normal mall to some boutique shops along a cute street and it's bound to be a fun time.
Explore the city.
Enjoy yourself by taking a tour of your city or just walk around (with an umbrella, of course!) to try to see the sights. You could make an end goal for yourself, like finding the best cup of coffee that you possibly can, to make the exploration even more interesting.
Buy some board games.
You're with friends, so why not enjoy their company with some board games? You can pick up some of the less intense ones pretty cheaply and they're bound to make for a good time during the rain! Just be prepared to hate everyone after a round of Monopoly.
Play laser tag.
Many towns have laser tag places and this is a great activity to do with friends while you're stuck inside for the day! It's perfect because it's something new that you wouldn't be doing at home and it keeps you having fun with your friends while indoors.
Get a really good lunch.
It's a rainy day and there's not much else to do, so why not eat? You know that you want to. Going out to a fun lunch has the double benefits of experiencing something new in your vacation town and spending time with the people who you're with, so this is pretty much a win-win. Plus, like I said, there's food.
Read that book that you've been meaning to read.
Everybody brings books on spring break and says that they're going to read them, but few actually ever get around to it. Well, here's your chance! Read away!
Take a nap.
Let's be real. This will happen whether you plan it or not. It's spring break!
