Vacation Planning

Tonight we asked the kids what they would like in a family vacation. These are the responses:

Disneyland (2 votes)
visiting friends in Seattle (3 votes)
The Dinosaur Museum (3 votes, This is local, we’ll hit it before the end of summer)
Flying in a plane (1 vote)
Going to a beach (2 votes)
a road trip with several stops (3 votes)
Staying at a hotel with waffles for breakfast (4 votes)
Washington DC (1 vote)
Grandma’s house (2 votes)

The results were far from unanimous except on the subject of hotels with waffle breakfasts, but this gives Howard and I a place to start. Next year the family vacation gets scheduled first and everything else has to bend around it. We’re thinking it will be a road trip loop that encompasses a week or two, possibly connected to an event like a convention. My personal vote would be to head eastward since I’ve been many of the places west of here.
