We only go on short trips, so they count!


pp here. i didn't mean to imply those vacations weren't as nice, it's just after a while it gets to be too much. My tree was getting full of ornaments that weren't as meaningful. We didn't need one from Hershey park for instance.

Magnets and key chains. Kids put the key chains on their backpacks for 'flair.' T-shirts and goofy hats from Disney. Used to do Christmas ornaments. Sometimes a decorative item like a wooden box. Brought a cool beer glass from Belgium. And a set of 4 beer glasses from Cooperstown. A linen runner and thick wool sweater from Ireland. And, I always get the souvenir photo from Empire State Building or whatever. I scrapbook, so I put them in the family photo album. Tervis tumbler from the Key West airport. Ah the memories.

Ornaments, magnets, mugs. Occasionally a t-shirt or locally-made thing (i.e. wool stuff from Iceland).

DH gets Christmas ornaments for family vacations. I get a shot glass when I travel for work. It started when I got my first "big" job that had me on the road 34 weeks out of the year.

Magnets. We used to get Christmas ornaments but our tree is too full now.

Whatever the place is known for, or like pp, artwork.

I recently returned from Morocco and got a beautiful carpet. When I went to Ireland I bought a cute pitcher from Nicholas Moss pottery.
Things like that.

Artwork. Small watercolors/oils of the places visited. Something that hangs. We have quite a collection on one wall.

Magnets. Used to like mugs but they don't travel well and take up space. It works.
