is fun and exciting , but its not if you get sick. you may think , “not me , i wont get sick on my vacation.” but , for many people , that is what happens. of course you dont want to spend your vacation sick in bed. so what can you do to stay in good health? there are three things you should remember when you travel : relax , sleep and eat well. a vacation is supposed to be a time for relaxing . but very often it is not. think about what you do when you are a tourist. there are so many places to visit :museums, shops, parks and churches. you may spend most days walking around these

while you rest. sleep is also important . if you want to stay healthy, you need to get enough sleep. you may have trouble sleeping at night when you travel . your hotel room may be noisy or the bed

of food but you need to be careful about how much you eat . lots of food is not good for you. so, remember this . if you want to enjoy your vacation , take good care of yourself. give your body some
