[quote=Anonymous]We stay in a hotel when it's just my family. If it's my parents too, we stay in an airbnb. Airbnb is nice because we can put the kids to bed and go out while grandparents "watch" them while they're sleeping.

I REFUSE to do laundry on vacation. I am particular about my laundry and like it folded and hung up asap with no wrinkles. Pulling wrinkly clean clothes out of my luggage when I get home wouldn't thrill me. I prefer a bag of dirty clothes to come home that I can just wash.

We often bring a meal or two already cooked and ready to go. Like a batch of taco meat made, a lasagna, or shredded chicken. I'm not doing any sort of intensive cooking. Dinners are very hard on vacation with my kids. They're exhausted from full days, hangry, and want food super fast. Going to a restaurant for dinner is a non starter, but we like restaurants for lunch. A pizza we order in is also a good option.

Speaking of which, we have trouble traveling with family that eats differently than us. My family eats small breakfasts (I just like coffee), big lunches and small dinners. DH's family wants this massive, lumberjack breakfast, zero lunch, and then a big dinner at a restaurant. After years of grumpy kids, we just eat lunch and bow out of their dinners. [/quote]
