How to Sign "Vacation" in American Sign Language (ASL)

Taking a vacation in ASL uses two "V" hands moving up and out in a smooth way. The sign shows how people feel when they finally get to relax and let go of their daily stress, capturing that wonderful moment of release that comes with time away from work or school. You'll see this quick gesture a lot when people talk about their trips. The movement perfectly matches how many people think about vacations as a chance to break free from their normal schedules and routines for a while. You can easily show if you're talking about a past or future vacation by adding time signs.
