First trip 7 nights
Next two 10 nights

Upcoming trip 11 nights

Longer trips because of the travel time/distance from the Great White North makes short trips impractical and overly expensive for airfare thus increasing the CPF we all talk about.

I have never gone to CR for less than 4 nights .Just not worth it to me for less. I much prefer 5 to 7 with 5 being most common to just hobby.When I come for longer I usually take some over night trip out of the city to a farther destination in the middle and hobby on both ends.I fly from Dallas so have flexibility to still do 4 and 5 days trips.rbc100

Lessee.. 8 days, 6 days, and 14 days...with 5 days upcoming. All since May. 8 day average.

5 days is waaaay too short, but it's all I can muster up between jobs.

7 to 10 days for me. With 14 to 16 hours total flight time I try to get the most time I can while I am there.

Damn, I have to remember the last 2 years ?? How about just this year alone...

January - 7 days
February - 9 days
March - 7 days
June - 10 days
August - 7 days
September - 6 days
September - 7 days, had to go back, forgot my life.
October - 15 days
November - 4 days and counting, 14 more to go, still here.

I think that is it, I may have forgotten some days or so. I lost my calender book last month, damn.

My 14 days (with ONE woman) were the best days of my life on vacation. This next trip (5 days) is gonna have to work real hard to beat that...but mi novia is up to the challenge, I think.
Remember, I am an M-Man.
