If you do, you’re not alone, as a recent survey commissioned by Disney  just revealed.
 What do people do to make a vacation extra special?  Upgraded and special experiences topped the survey list:

Enjoy a special meal (59 percent)
Stay in nicer accommodations (35 percent)
Group activities (35 percent)
Buy souvenirs (34 percent)
Special tours (27 percent)

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you plan a special trip, whether an exotic vacation or a weekend getaway, for those special occasions in your life?  A 25th anniversary cruise, a romantic weekend for a proposal, or a girls getaway for a 30th birthday?</p>
<p>If you do, you’re not alone, as a recent survey commissioned by Disney  just revealed.</p>

<ul>
<li>Enjoy a special meal (59 percent)</li>
<li>Stay in nicer accommodations (35 percent)</li>
<li>Group activities (35 percent)</li>
<li>Buy souvenirs (34 percent)</li>
<li>Special tours (27 percent)</li>
<li>Private rooms at restaurants (23 percent)</li>
</ul>
<p>I know I have taken special trips for occasions, including anniversaries, birthdays, reunions.  And for those trips my habits correspond to the survey results – a special meal, maybe an upgrade to a suite, or some other special activity for our group.</p>
<p>Do you take vacations for a celebration?  Do you make it extra special in one of these ways?</p>

Well, time came and went. Special days for special people. Do gifts or presents really matter?
I love giving gifts and, quite naturally, receiving them. How about the rest of you? it doesn&#8217;t really matter if they&#8217;re expensive or if it was just one small card that greeted me, I&#8217;d treasure it.

<p>Well, time came and went. Special days for special people. Do gifts or presents really matter?</p>
<p>I love giving gifts and, quite naturally, receiving them. How about the rest of you? it doesn&#8217;t really matter if they&#8217;re expensive or if it was just one small card that greeted me, I&#8217;d treasure it. It somehow tells me that you&#8217;ve thought of the day beforehand. You were counting down the days till you can actually bring out the gift and make me feel special on that special day since I&#8217;m a special person in your life. </p>
<p>It can be in celebration of your first year anniversary, birthdays, Christmases or whatever. That special occasion spent together, a gift is a way to remember it by.</p>
<p>What about you? Will you put stock on giving gifts on these occasions? Why?</p>
