Spring Break is a challenge. Do you stay at home and force the kids to go play with friends, or do you head out on a family vacation? I prefer to head out on a family vacation – although it doesn’t always happen that way. We enjoy a day trip to a national park or…
The original Disneyland theme park has nearly 30 rides. They range from Splash Mountain to Dumbo the Flying Elephant. I’ve been to Disneyland numerous times, either as a couple spending some adult time away, or as parents working to enjoy The Happiest Place on Earth with the kids. After some long discussions with the family,…

The day was full of sun, shopping and snorkeling. I should probably add sunburn to that list as well. Here’s what you can…
When someone says they’re going to Paris, there are two places I tell them they need to visit. The Eiffel Tower and Versailles. The palace and the gardens are magnificent. My favorite part was renting a rowboat and taking it for a spin in one of the ponds. It felt like royalty… but without the…
