[quote=Anonymous]We usually spend about $5k - $7k a year on vacation for a family of 4 and I think that is pinching every penny we possibly can.  This year it will be more we are going to the Cayman Islands for 8 days and then in the fall we plan to do Disney World with the kids, they have never been.

Our hotel and flight alone for the Caymans was $3,400.  that does not include food.  We are staying in a hotel with a mini kitchen so we will cook some meals (lunch) and do some cheap eats.

Every other year I go back to my homeland in Europe and the tickets alone cost anywhere from $1,100 to $1,300 per person.  Luckily we stay with my parents, but we still rent a car and eat out and at times leave the kids and go to another European country.  When that happens our trip easily is $7k-$8k.

OP I can understand where you are coming from when we visit DHs family in the West Coast, I too feel like we are spending so much $$ just to spend time with family inside.  MIL lives in a 2 bedroom house and now that the kids are bigger we no longer all fit  in her office bedroom, the living room has two huge windows that have curtain toppers and because you can see the water so if one sleeps out there they are up at sun rise.
