I’m back from six days in Palm Desert, CA, and it was such a great trip: warmth and sunshine, and copious eating, drinking, and being merry. I have many fun stories but mostly I just want to say that this was our first big trip with the kids and it was a happy success. The best thing about travelling with kids is watching their world vision expand. After getting off the plane, the boys were absolutely fascinated that there were flowers! Growing! And they were wearing t-shirts! And there was grass! And palm trees! And I have many things to say and I want to visit all of your blogs but the siren song of laundry and unpacking is calling me….so a longer post is coming after I have waded through those duties.
I really look forward to hearing about your trip. My husband is soooooo freaked out about traveling with the kids. I’m not sure what he thinks is going to happen.
It sounds like you had a great time…it would be so nice to get away from this cold winter. You are so right, children gain so much from traveling. It has really opened my sons eyes to the rest of the world. I am so happy he will be going to China this summer…what an awesome experience it will be.
I love Palm Springs & area. The weather & scenery is beautiful, the shopping fantastic & it is surprisingly great for families. We are going back for our second time in Sept. Can’t wait! Can’t wait to hear your stories as well 🙂
