[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up lower middle class. Nearly all of our family was local, and I had a parent who had anxiety about traveling and long distance car trips, so it was mostly the beach for us. Weekly house rentals before peak season were reasonably priced so that’s what we did. If we had to go peak season for whatever reason, it would be for 2-3 days in a budget family motel. We ate most meals in the house but made sure to do 1-2 out as a family, perhaps pizza or an early bird special. These trips were humble but I loved them so much I still do them with my kids. At their ages, overseas travel is just too difficult. Easy and fun is more important than whatever limited worldview they might gain traipsing through some European tourist trap. We’ll get there eventually just not right now. [/quote] Not sure why, but just that you said "These trips were humble but I loved them so much" made me tear up. You sound like a really nice person.[/quote]
