FOR RELAXATION SEEKERS
Lisa Mazor of Antioch, California, loves
the tranquillity, natural beauty, and
healthy-living focus of Rancho La
Puerta, a Mexican spa her mother-in-
law, Maurine, has treated her to twice.
She also treasures the one-on-one time
with Maurine and the easy groove they
fall into at the resort. “It gives us time
to talk about things w e normally
wouldn’t when w e’re together with our
husbands,” Lisa says.”

We asked about your mother-
daughter vacation experiences.
“My mom and I went to Napa
together one weekend and had
a blast. We laughed and bonded
in a way we never had before.”
A n d re a W u rn itsch
“A few months before I got
married, my mom took me to
Hilton Head for a week. We did
a lot of relaxing, which every
bride-to-be needs. I will never
forget that time with her.”
L in E a so n H a rris
“Spring and I took an outstand-
ing road trip in New Mexico.
She drives like a maniac in the
mountains and pulls onto the
freeway at 30. Why can’t she do
30 in the mountains? Can’t wait
till the next road trip!”
A n n M a rie D a v is
“Took my 8- and 6-year-old girls
to Mexico. Hiked the jungle,
zip-lined, snorkeled, played in
the sand, and danced. Amazing
adventure.”
N a ta lie T k a c
“My sisters and mom went to
Puerto Rico. It was beautiful,
but a huge storm hit the last
night. Our villa took a pounding.
That’s a vacation we will never
forget!
