travel
Family travel is complicated. And sometimes fun.
post lockdown escape
the lockdown has cost me 3 concerts and meant my wedding and subsequent honey moon is delayed a year. Also it means I will not be able to visit my son for his 30th birthday and he wont be able to see mine for my 50th. He lives 50 miles from me and due to his autism and other needs he lives in a supported living care home. He seems to be coping with the lock down so far as he hasn't been in contact to complain.

Strollers Should be Banned on Public Transportation During Peak Hours
One of my pet peeves is strollers on public transportation. If it were up to me, I would ban them. While I understand that parents and their children need to get around, during peak hours strollers should not be allowed on a train, bus or streetcar.

Leaving
Being able to leave for a year seemed crazy to many people around us. First of all because of the children's school. They will do their 4th, secondary 1 and 3 on the road. what better, in my opinion, to learn without compromises and scheduling conflicts!

Planning Your Stay at the Family Cabin
It may sound counterproductive to plan out your getaway to the family cabin or vacation home, but you’ll thank yourself later if you do. If you’re not taking a trip to Disneyland, there’s a good chance your kids may quickly find themselves bored—especially if you’re in a more isolated area, without TV or internet. Preparing for the days you’ll be gone, with fun and relaxing activities for both the kids and yourself, will make this trip the best one yet! So, grab a pen and paper, or pull out the notepad on your phone, and take note of these family trip ideas.

The Bus Leaves in 5 Minutes
For the most part, it always happened in the pre-dawn hours. You know, the time of day when the moon has almost faded from the sky... it’s still dark out, but birds are chirping and the sky is starting to get a slight tinge of a dark purplish, pink. That’s the time of day it would normally happen.

Travels With Toddlers
We recently returned from a 10 day trip with our three year old and nine month old. We survived. Vacationing with small children can seem more like work than play, but we value experiences, and we cherish the joy that our children had on our trip. I can understand why so many people are overcome with anxiety at the though of traveling with small children. If you value travel, like we do, here are three tips we used to make our travel successful.
