With most family traveling this summer, my cousin is planning to head down to San Diego since he’s also passing that way to explore a franchise business.

I heard that the San Diego Zoo, located in San Diego California is one of the best zoo’s in the United States. It is a must for all visitors to include the San Diego zoo into the itinerary - I wished I knew that earlier eight years ago when we were there!

The zoo is said to house nearly 4,000 animals. Also in the zoo, are the infamous pandas, one of the main reasons as to why the zoo is so popular. Among the many animals you’ll will also expect to see giraffes, tigers, and basically any other animal that you can think of. The animals themselves have plenty of room to run and play, giving you all the space you need to view them in their active environment and best of all - while they are at their best.

Anytime you plan to visit San Diego this summer, you should make sure you visit the zoo. Kids simply adore the animals here, while parents find them adorable. Even if you have never been to a zoo before, the San Diego Zoo can more than change your outlook.

Some of my close friends had just returned from their group vacation from Club Med Phuket few days ago. We were completely envious! If only we are not this busy, we would join all four families for this fun-filled vacation. Not only did they manage to get cheap flights to Phuket, they grabbed a good package during a travel fair. With 10 kids and 4 couples, it is hard not to have fun, is it? I only wish we can be part of the fun and that our little 4 year old can ‘party’ with the rest of the kiddos. Well, I can only look forward to another mega family cum group vacation next year. Hopefully, we won’t be that busy during those travel promotions!

This morning, I woke reminiscing the excellent moments we had during our last family vacation to Hawaii. Six months had passed and every time we ran through the videos with our preschooler, I would be reminded of the golden sunsets at Waikiki and the superb ocean views from our room. This must be one of our best vacations! Though my other half still complain and nag every now and then about my shopping indulgence and splurge, I know he had a lovely time himself too. He went for surfing lessons for the first time while I spent some quality time with my boy in DFS Galleria Waikiki and the Ala Moana mall - that was nice! Read the rest of this entry »

Perhaps you are planning to reward your kids on a fun filled vacation this coming summer. Kids being kids, they are not hard to please as long as there are sufficient activities and adventures to keep them busy and happy. For me, I am hoping to bring my boy to Orlando once he’s a little older. I know he’ll go head over heels with all the fun rides in the theme parks and all day entertainment. Plus, the Discount Walt Disney World Tickets would help us to save as a family and we can then use the savings for better accommodation or dining. Actually, it’s not just my boy who is going to look forward to a fun holiday like this but I’ll be enthusiastic to go on all the fun rides too! No matter how old you are, it is never too old to enjoy these wonderful family entertainment and have a great time with your loved ones.

When traveling to sunny Palm Beach Florida, you may want to consider the Breakers Hotel as it seems to be a great accommodation spot for travelers. Besides the spa, golf course, and a 1/2 mile sandy beach, there is also a separate pool for the kids, a family entertainment center, and a kid’s program. Families can reserve up to five adjoining rooms while children under the age of 16 can stay for free in the same room as their parents. The fitness freaks can sweat it out on the elliptical machines while the ones who long for some pampering can head for the spa. Also, if you decide to take your beach vacation in Orlando, the Loews Hard Rock Hotel offers you plenty of beach and amusement rides, with a 240 foot slide and a white sandy beach.

If you are interested in learning more about the family fun activities found aboard a cruise ship, you are encouraged to start researching. This research can easily be done by examining a number of cruise ships. In your search, you will likely see that there are a number of cruise ships designed specifically for those with children. You do not have to limit yourself just to family cruises, but you may find them beneficial. Read the rest of this entry »

We are finally home after being away for almost a month. This is one of the best trips we had and looking back, I am thankful that our 3 year old has been a reasonably good traveler. If you are familiar with traveling with a toddler, you know that nothing is perfect and you must expect melt-downs, cranky moments, stressful situations…etc. But with a little planning and patience, these negative responses can be minimized.

It feels good to be on holiday - the feeling is wonderful, the mind relaxed and my muscles less tensed. I took lots of pictures of our trip everyday with focus on my little boy and some details which I would share in my blogs. Read the rest of this entry »
