Virginia: Alexandria, Family Vacation Ideas.

The family friendly atmosphere makes the city an ideal base for a vacation in the area or a business trip with kids included.

North Carolina: Cherokee, Oconaluftee Indian Village Time Travel Experience.

Turning wood into a canoe doesn’t seem like such a big deal. All it takes is a few power tools and a little know how, or even better, a trip to the local sporting goods store. No problem.

England: Cornwall, Fowey - Renting a Cottage with the Kids.

Looking at the map placed deliberately on the dinning room table it seemed simple enough; it was going to be a trip for three generations.

I could already feel the cool sand between my toes. [Read More]

Alabama: Gulf Shores, Floribama with the Kids?

This is not Florida – yet if brought here blindfolded, I defy anyone to convince me otherwise. White sand, blue water, heat, palm trees – all the ingredients necessary for a subtropical experience are present – but, this is Gulf Shores, Alabama and it looks more like Florida than much of Florida. This 30,000-acre Gulf of Mexico island community at the southern tip of Alabama mingles southern hospitality with a warm weather getaway – but with no crowds or the degree of pavement of better known tourist destinations. [Read More]
