[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Beaches poster from above - we’ve traveled all over with our kids since birth, and they’re great travelers but that all-inclusive resort trip, which is quite different from our normal type of travel, was definitely the most relaxing. We’ve also done cruises (and we aren’t “cruise people” at all) and they are also easy in that you can unpack once and easily see lots of things from one room. We tend to do more interesting and port intensive European cruises though we’ve also done Caribbean. Disney was the best but they’ve all been quite good. Not sure I’m ever going on another one, however. 
My kids are now 7, 9 & 12 and we’ve done a lot of travel. This year we stayed domestic and did a bunch of national parks.  We live in the city so my kids are good walkers, and we all enjoyed some big hikes and other adventures. [/quote]

My kids are 7, 9, and 12 & I just posted about Beaches T&C! What else have you got for me. I feel like we are travel twins! [/quote]

We did 2 Austin Adventures trips this last summer which were awesome - small groups, geared for families and lots of beautiful scenery and fun adventures. They really were wonderful trips. Prior to that we’ve often rented homes or done home exchanges in Europe for 2+ Weeks (dh and I can work remotely in the summer if we plan ahead). We’ve done Provence twice and Portugal once and have a wonderful time doing lots of day trips and having a nice home base with pool and kitchen etc. Hoping to do Italy this summer. 
Copenhagen has been one of  our family’s favorite international trips. We were there for 4 days before a Baltic cruise which was also great as an easy way to see lots of the Baltic region and find which places we want to return to. 
We have family in Southern California and Santa Barbara is a great place to vacation - kids loved surf camp, the zoo (can also do zoo camp), hiking in the hills, surrey bikes along the beach, great food. San Diego is also great for kids who are active and love animals and the outdoors. [/quote]

Thank you!!  I will definitely save these ideas.
We went to Rome over Spring Break 2017 when the kids were 2, 5, and 7.  We had a great trip.  We have done more stateside / Caribbean than international but hopefully will get more international in sooner than later, with COVID being the hang up lately...  We also did Vegas/Zion/Bryce during Spring break 2019 and Bar Harbor / Acadia - Summer 2017 - and loved both of those trips.  We spent a month in Sanibel last winter - and if you ever want to stay somewhere longer and work remotely - Sanibel Sea School was great and they have camps, etc.  My ILs live in Miami - so we also have had good trips to South FL and the Keys, etc.
We have not taken the kids to CA yet, but I would like to take them to San Diego.  [/quote]
