We have just returned from vacationing up in Holland, MI and I'm so very tired! While getting a family of 6 packed up, and driving 9 hours sounds like mind numbing fun, me thinks I need a vacation to recover from my vacation. Wow, am I that spoiled?!!! .... yes, I guess I am.
We have been going for the past few years with Scott's family and have a lovely time relaxing on Lake Michigan's beautiful beaches and eating the scrumptious berries that grow abundantly throughout the great lakes states. However, now that my kids are older, they are starting to have different ideas about where they'd like to go and do!
On a side note, I don't remember having funny ideas til I got a job, but whatever.
Anyway, a few holidays thrown out there were, vacationing in Florida and going to Disney, spending a week in New England, going to West Point and taking the train into Manhattan, camping, doing a whirlwind museum/sightseeing tour of Chicago, and of course Oliver's favorite... going into the wilderness armed with nothing but air soft guns and the clothes on our backs. etc
Some of these are more appealing/realistic than others, but it's interesting to hear what my kids have to say. I'm also seriously looking for new ideas.
So here's my question to you:
What is your most memorable vacation from growing up and why?
