subject: Family Vacation Planning [print this page] At the core of family vacations are fun things to do. Most of which should be free. Of course, some things are going to cost you. During the course of the vacation planning process, make a list of activities that you absolutely must do. Research those in advance. Have a backup plan of things to do in the event of inclement weather.
Putting time, effort and some resources into planning your family vacation will make for a better experience. Having a trip plan, daily itinerary and activity schedule is not going overboard - it is vacation planning.
