vicariously living through other people's vacays

I had a chuckle the other day when I was on my Flipboard app. I use the app to get news and fun articles from places ranging from the New York Times to Martha Stewart Living, and House Beautiful to W Magazine. They began showing ads for other boards they offer in between the boards I subscribe to, and one called Other People’s Vacations came up. The photo was of a family huddled together in front of something Grand Canyon-like, all saying “cheese” for the camera. Needless to say, I didn’t subscribe, but I did laugh. I mean, I am happy for folks that get to go on vacation, but it isn’t that cool unless I am the one on the trip.
