[quote=Anonymous]We have tweens/early teens and a HHI of $800k, though 5 years ago it was probably $300k.

My kids have been to Europe once before COVID (we're returning this summer). They've visited NYC many times (it's a family favorite). They've gone skiing in Colorado a couple of times, visited Acadia twice. We've done Disney/Universal an embarrassing four times in the last year and a half, since we missed some of the prime ages to go thanks to COVID, and they were tiny the last time they went.

We were planning to take them to Puerto Rico in a few weeks for a work reward trip, but they have too much going on so they're staying with grandparents.

I know what you mean, OP. It seems like some of my kids' friends are always in Cabo. One of them is visiting New Zealand right now. We're not as much beach people other than local beaches in the summer, but we probably seem like we're always zipping off somewhere to other people. To me, having an excuse to be together is what matters. These moments are precious; the details of where you go and how much you spend aren't as important.

When the kids were in preschool we bought a second home in the mountains. It was such a godsend during COVID, when we couldn't go anywhere or do anything. It's nice to have somewhere to spend time together where we're all relaxed. Maintaining a second home obviously cuts into our potential travel budget. Maybe we'd be going to luxury resorts all the time, IDK (still doubt it). We more enjoy places with a lot of activities or sight seeing.[/quote]
