Family Vacation … All I Ever Wanted?

May 6th, 2014  •   0 Comments

The family truckster is packed full, the kids are ready, and the GPS is pointing you to your destination. It's time for your family vacation! As Chevy Chase's character Clark Griswold says, in the movie National Lampoon's Vacation: "Why aren't we flying? Because getting there is half the fun. You know that."

Is a family vacation relaxing? No. Worthwhile? Definitely.

Clark chooses to take his family to meet Marty Mouse at Wallyworld in Vacation. After weeks of planning, Clark is excited for his family to spend time together on their road trip. Unforeseen situations continue to pop up, yet Chevy chooses to stay upbeat and enjoy the time with his family.

Planning ahead can take some of the stress out of vacations, so here are a few quick tips for a successful family vacation:


  1. Try something new together

  2. How about scuba diving, snorkeling, riding all the roller coasters at an amusement park, or touring the area on Segways?

  3. Schedule time to rest & time to play ...

  4. Constant activity can foster exhaustion, overstimulation, and family feuds.

  5. ... yet, be a little spontaneous and enjoy every moment

  6. Have fun! Throw in something unexpected along the way. Shared experiences form bonds that build strong families. Memories made on these trips last a lifetime. The grandkids will undoubtedly hear about that one night Dad had to wrestle the tent for hours in the wind and pouring rain.

    There are plenty of inconveniences and reasons to just stay home, but the benefits far outweigh the headaches when it comes to investing in your family.

    Do you have memories of a favorite summer vacation your family took growing up? Where did you go?
