[quote=Anonymous]Yes.  I have been doing this since my children were small.  My husband likes his routine and does not like to take much time off work.  I am more of an adventurer and my job is more flexible (and not full time).  I take one trip with my kids at the beginning of summer and then a trip (always the same place, which he likes) with my husband and kids at the end of the summer.  I get to explore new places (he doesn't love the outdoors and I do) and expose my kids to new things.  Then, we get family time at summer's end.  It has worked out well.  It took him one year to get used to the idea but now he expects I will go.  Otherwise, I would be frustrated that I didn't get to go anywhere new or different.  Yes.  It's more difficult travelling with children on my own but, for me, it's worth it.  I am now starting to have friends from high school or college (and their child/children) meet up with me on my one parent vacations.  He doesn't have a close relationship with these friends (I moved to be with him), so it's a nice way for me to catch up with old friends.[/quote]
