[quote=Anonymous]Don't stay in the stopover city (BTDT). You'll be too tired to appreciate it. It's easier just to press on through and get the travel over as quick as possible. If you'd like to spend a day or so in stopover city, do it on the home journey.

+1 on bubblebum!! We have one that we use for cab trips around town. They aren't great for long long drives, but as long as your trips are less than, I dunno, an hour or two max, you'll be fine.

Packing light is critical. If it's a warmish place and you have laundry access, pack 5 days of outfits per person, a pair of PJs and a bathing suit apiece. Stick an extra pair of pjs for kids in your carry-on luggage. Try to stick to two mid-sized checked suitcases.

For carry-on luggage, have each kid pack a backpack with books, favorite toy/teddy, a pair of pjs, extra undies and socks, and their toothbrush/toothpaste. Your carry-on should also have some extra snacks, some wipes, and a change of undies. Ideally, have everything in carry on that you need for 24hours at your destination, in case of lost check-in luggage.[/quote]
