[quote=Anonymous]The best we tended family trips are where everyone flies to a fun place, pays their own lodging, and the get together most days and do fun things and meals. And no one is working or doing homework; everyone has time to talk, have fun, relax, do solo days and group days.

Second best is the working family visits the retired family. The latter has time to prep meals, the house, plan outings, etc as they are no longer working fulltime or raising children.

The worst is when people descend in a family with kids (ie school, sports, EC, homework, friend time), and expect to be hosted or do their own thing IN the families house and eat everything they see - why ether they cook it or not, and never treat the host family to a nice meal out (needs to be once per 5 days of visit IMO).  Oh and they don’t tell the host when they broke something or used up some food or ingredient. Or the whole pantry.

And please, go rent a car and do some day trips yourself. Give the families some breathing and recouping room. [/quote]
