Bit off topic, but my in laws live in Australia, we live in Cornwall which obviously has loads of beautiful places to go, things to see etc. We live not too far from the Eden project for example. Despite this, and despite it being her first time in the UK, all my mother in law wanted to do was shop in crappy tourist shops, go on Facebook and eat
we got her on a little boat trip once and she literally sulked all the way round. Then straight back to the shopping. My poor father in law (who was a little more interested) spent maybe 80% of the time they were here sitting outside waiting for her
I still think about it to this day, how can people go somewhere on holiday and just do that?!
If our parents had done that when we were kids we'd have had a terrible time!
