In our family, the whole week between Christmas and New Years is like that. Watch movies while drifting in and out of food comas and occasionally asking what day it is.
Best time of the year.

We had that happen in Italy! Milan-Rome used to be one of the most profitable air routes in the world, and had its lunch completely eaten by the Frecciarossa high-speed train. The same thing happened with the Madrid-Barcdelona route. More, please!
