Episode 153: Disneyland Paris

,
Last week we talked with Lindsay about her trip to Scotland. This week we’re keeping her on that side of the pond because she also made a stop at Disneyland Paris. Since Elizabeth was also there recently with her family we thought we’d talk to them about how it’s different than the US parks, and how it might be the same. Have you been to Disneyland Paris? What did you enjoy most?

Episode 144: Traveling with Larger Families

Do you have a larger family?  What do you do when you have 5 or more family members?  Larger families can create special challenges that smaller groups don’t have to face.  Whether it is making dinner reservations, finding the right number of beds for everyone at the resort or anticipating needs of different generations.  The #1 key for any vacation with a large group is advanced planning with your friendly Outlander travel agent. Spontaneity can be hard with a large group, and with varied opinions and interests, it is much better to tell the kids the activities that you have planned each day, than to solicit suggestions. We discuss those challenges and how to find the right fits so that everyone gets the absolute best vacation. What do you have for tips?
