[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you talking about reducing your savings to travel or actually withdrawing money?

While I am always up for a weekend trip, I think most of the time flying for a weekend is more trouble than it’s worth. But each to their own. That being said, your 14 year old isn’t going to want to or be able to travel with you for too much longer. [/quote]
Well, I guess it would be a bit of both? We save money every month, but I would likely transfer savings over to pay for these trips.

I gave the long weekend as an example. I would hope to use this opportunity to travel during school breaks, when we otherwise haven’t been able to because of DH schedule. [/quote]

Sounds like finances aren’t an issue. One thing I learned when my nieces were young is that kids rarely remember the gifts you give them but they remember the trips.

There are so many things to do even on a regular weekend. We do several big trips a year and several weekend trips. We’ve just started doing day trips as well (like leaving at 5 am and getting home at midnight). I think our adventures have been part of what has made our family so close.

We also let our kids bring friends when we take shorter trips and day trips.

Anyway, enjoy. I bet you can get lots of ideas from people here. [/quote]
