		<description><![CDATA[For the age-challenged, the most difficult part of going on vacation can be getting ready. We&#8217;re nervous about leaving home, is the thing. We don&#8217;t like being away from all our routines, all our stuff. And then, we worry about what&#8217;s going to happen to the place when we&#8217;re gone.
