This is actually a golden opportunity.

There's many places you could go on vacation where there'd be a ton of things to do and enjoy and you'd never have to see a bottle of booze or a cocktail or be around drinkers, or drink O'Douls to fit in.


Obviously you want to prove a point here..the point being nothing has to change in your life but you not drinking.

It wasn't possible for me, but I genuinely wish you well with that....but what if you go and you're miserable because everyone's drinking but you? How will you handle that?
