[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So do most people not travel during holidays, spring break, and summer?! Just sene kids to camp?[/quote]
We travel for holidays to visit family - so NY for Thanksgiving and NC for Christmas. Neither one costs us money besides gas and tolls.

We travel for spring break but keep it somewhere driving distance. Cabin in the mountains, Charleston, Williamsburg, etc.

In the summer our kids are in camp because both parents work full time. There is a week between camps closing down and school starting - we visit the NC relatives at the beach normally.

Yes, we could get more culture elsewhere but our kids are on the young side and I didn’t really want to fly before they were vaccinated.  It’s always interesting to hear budgets from other households - we are at $300k HHI and our travel budget is maybe $1k a year. [/quote]

Curious what kids age 4-12 would find interesting in Charleston? Older kids might like colonial Williamsburg. [/quote]

Dolphin boat; beach combing; plantation with swamp garden and farm animals; aquarium; kayaking;  children's museum; older kids learn about slavery, the Gullah culture, etc.  [/quote]

Yeah that works for the young elem set but we do a lot of that in DC on a regular weekend. [/quote]

Really?  You see dolphins and alligators in DC?  Wow...  Someone asked what kids do on vacation in Charleston, and I answered.  Most vacations with kids are similar, regardless of location.[/quote]
