        That can really be a healthy activity. Most of the times what we feel like thinking of is a way that lets everything going in a decent manner and because its about spending time somewhere we do not really get the right thing from it so yeah this is the way how it is.
        When it comes to my traveling i usually use fort lauderdale to boca raton that stays quite reasonable for me.
