[quote=Anonymous]OP, I sympathize. I've traveled pretty extensively and the bottom line is some people are just hard to travel with, no matter how close you're to them normally. And no good deeds go unpunished, especially if you're the trip planner/leader. I've gone on some meticulously planned group trips and seen how nitpicky and complaining some grown ups can be. I like planning trips myself, but will only do that with my immediate family. I won't even take my own parents, b/c of our vastly different traveling styles. Thankfully for their first Europe trip my parents booked themselves a tour group and went with some of their peers. And they enjoyed it, and I enjoyed talking to them about it. If we'd gone together I know for sure we'd hate each other by week's end. Your ILs are not bad people. You're not bad people. It's just that some people become absolute dead weights on travel and you've got your hands full.[/quote]
