[quote=Anonymous]Dh's family likes the summer beach house rental and I can't stand it. I honestly don't think I can go again. It's $$$ (they don't pay), boring and I don't even like the dated, small town food. I'm left watching the 3 kids while everyone else gets to do fun things. The beaches are freezing up here too. I think dh's whole family has fond memories of being kids at the beach, but the reality is that it's awful. The 1960s condos are gross too.

On a cruise my 3 kids would enjoy the kids club, great food options (I love the formal dinner at night and I choose cruises with good food), there's constant entertainment and it would be warm. I personally love touring castles in Europe or trekking through Cambodia, but that's more of a couples trip. I have traveled a lot internationally with my kids and it's... an adventure to say the least.

A few people have mentioned the Viking river cruises. I just want to point out that you have to be 18, so make sure no one in the extended family is underaged. DH and I have done them, but the average age is probably 70. [/quote]
