| Introduction | Traveling was the one luxury I wasn’t willing to totally give up upon becoming a parent. Since we don't have the money to jet about, we've taken to house swapping with other families and other little tricks to travel around. Some trips have been excellent, some we could have done without - but it's always a great learning experience. I hope we can pass on some useful information - or at least get you to laugh - from our traveling tales. I exaggerate for creative license; but, for the most part, everything is true. Feel free to offer corrections, additions, or stories from your own travels with small children. Enjoy yourself while on that oxymoron called "family vacation" and tell us all about it when you return! |
