[quote=Anonymous]Thanks for all of the comments! I have young kids- both under 8 FIL hates traveling to us, prefers to be in his house. He had a nervous breakdown when he got off at the wrong metro stop once and won't ever leave our house without us when he visits beyond a stroll around the neighborhood/bike ride. Condo with 3BR is $150 a night. Hotel is one room for that price and no kitchen/W/D. The trip has to be annual as a condition of morning away from FIL to be in DC near my parents. I have visited FIL in his home approx 30 times over the years. I had a full blown panic attack on the flight out here as I just find the whole experience so depressing and difficult. He is a wonderful grandfather to the kids, and I don't want to deny them time with him. I just wish I could skip it. [/quote]
