Vacation is a term used in English-speaking North America to describe a lengthy time away from work or school, a trip abroad, or simply a pleasure trip away from home, such as a trip to the beach that lasts several days or longer. In the rest of the English-speaking world the word "holiday" is used, whereas in North America, "holiday" normally applies to a specific national holiday or long weekend related to such a day.
