Differing expectations

Every time we come back from a holiday, Enfant Terrible and I ask each other where we should go next. Every time we go on holiday, I ask myself why I keep travelling with this boyfiend. The scenario runs thus: we arrive at the destination, check in, freshen up, and walk around town. Then:

He: What shall we do tomorrow?
Me: Laze on the beach!
He: Nah, let's do something more active.
Me: Er... walk up and down the beach?
He: *spots a tourist info booth* LET'S GO FOR AN ALL-DAY MOUNTAIN BIKE RIDE.

So yes, I have gone on an all-day mountain bike ride and I can still feel the imprint of the saddle on my tender bits. Hurrah, modern life.
