Just for fun, our last two posts contemplated ways to arrange for your best family vacation ever according to your astrological sign. So let’s delve into another unconventional planning possibility this week on our GuestQuest blog:

• Figuring out WHEN to go on vacation depending upon your biorhythms.

“What in blue blazes are biorhythms?”

We’re glad you asked!

The theory behind biorhythms says that every person has cyclical “ups” and “downs” and that these can be predicted. Typically, the primary biorhythms discussed are those governing intelligence, physical ability, and emotions; however, there are supposedly secondary (and possibly tertiary) biorhythms as well.

These biorhythms can be predicted based on your date of birth. Each biorhythm has its own cycle – the intellectual one is every 33 days; the physical one each 23 days; and the emotional every 28 days. Occasionally, they all peak… or tank… together.

“So what does this have to do with planning our next fun family vacation?”

Another good question!

Well, if the theory of biorhythms holds water and isn’t simply a type of parlor game, perhaps it’s a good idea to rent those Florida accommodations when your energies are going to be high. That way, you won’t be groggy, grumpy and goofy the whole time.

“Cool… but couldn’t a problem arise…?”

Ah, yes. There always has to be a little snag…

The downside to planning a family vacation getaway according to biorhythms is that if you’re traveling with many people, you’ll have to take all of their biorhythms into consideration, an impossible – or at least improbable – feat.

(Of course, if you’re the selfish type, just look up yours by Googling “free biorhythm chart” and checking out some of the websites. That way, at the very least YOU will be happy and healthy during your best family vacation!)

Next time, GuestQuest lauds procrastination with some reasons that last-minute vacation planning CAN be affordable.
