jaunts
Brief pleasure excursions
Jaunts is the plural of jaunt, a short trip taken for pleasure or leisure.
Jaunts are typically casual excursions rather than serious travel: weekend jaunts to the coast, quick jaunts around the neighborhood.
The word suggests lightheartedness—you take jaunts when you have time to spare and nowhere pressing to be.
