A Family Travel Blog
Family Travel Inspiration I created my family travel blog to inspire people to take their kids everywhere. It’s why I post to social media as well. It’s an amazing world. The more places you take your kids, and the more cultures they see in person, the more it will change… Read More
Coronado Island Having traveled to 12 countries this summer, we were tired of airports and airplanes. But we had a week left before school starts. A perfect time for a road trip south to Coronado Island! Our plan: play and relax without crowds and without lines. We drove right past… Read More
Summer in the Greek Islands We love Greece in the summer. The islands are truly idyllic, with amazing food, beaches and cute towns and shops. The white houses with their blue shutters, and painted walkways through town, add to the vibe. Plus the islands are safe. We’ve felt comfortable letting… Read More
Manitoba with Kids We’ve traveled with our oldest two kids to Canada several times, but my nine-year-old daughter had never been – a major oversight given how easy it is to visit Canada from California. It was time to change that! And given how much she likes animals and animal… Read More
Soneva Resorts The past few years we’ve become huge fans of the Soneva and Six Senses brands.

Summer Travel In an ideal world we would only travel to destinations during the shoulder seasons, when the weather is perfect and the crowds have thinned. Unfortunately we’re restricted to school breaks, which means that not only do we need to venture places when they’re crowded, we also see a… Read More
Istanbul with Kids I had never been to Istanbul before – one of the major holes in my travel history. By any measure it’s one of the world’s great cities, but I didn’t get there during my earlier travels, and my wife was a little hesitant to take our kids.… Read More
A Three-Day Getaway to Salt Lake City I had never been to Salt Lake City before. I’ve driven through Utah at least a dozen times between Colorado and California – I grew up in Colorado and I live in California – but Salt Lake City is north of the I-70/I-15… Read More
