Advice for Summer Travel


Dear Scotious,

I’m having a lot of trouble finding out where to go for our summer vacation later this year, I’ve discussed it with my children and husband but we just can’t decide where to go. Everyone is throwing out ideas that I come up with and come up with their own, and these are usually more expensive so I’m having trouble founding out where to go.

We live near the east coast so we don’t  go to the west coast very often so one of my sons always brings up the idea of going there but the other two children don’t want to go there. I just want everyone to have fun this summer and right now it just doesn’t seem like that right now. I need your advice on where to go so that way everyone can enjoy themselves.

Sincerely,

Madame Wants to travel

 

 

Dear Madame Wants to travel,

Your situation isn’t very bad. Not finding a place to go for summer vacation is common among families as the children and even the parents want always agree. Everyone has a different idea for where the want to go for their travels but you do have to come to an agreement. Since you always go to places near the east coast and since one of your children wants to go to the west coast but the other two don’t then go half-way. Go to Arizona, Colorado, Missouri, or South Dakota (which is a great place for outdoor activities).

All of these locations are most likely different than what you usually decide on. You can find great cities to visit such as Colorado Springs or St. Louis. You should be able to find some cheap places to stay at and still have a great time on your vacation. Try mentioning these options at the dinner table and see what your children think about them.

Hope I helped you,

Scotious.
Of note, this is made up.

  1. Good idea to meet in the middle! Of these choices you mentioned, which is your favorite, and why? I have been thinking of visiting these states, and would like to know which one you would go to.

  2. I would go to South Dakota as it has great hiking areas and also Mt. Rushmore is a good place to visit as well.

    1. I enjoyed visiting Mount Rushmore. The national parks have a great junior ranger program.
