We’ve taken our sons Andrew and Josh all over the World on our vacations – from the glaciers of Alaska to the canals of Venice. These trips have not only been great fun, but educational, too! Here are Andrew and Josh sampling bananas right from the plant on a December 2006 visit to the Caribbean – they’ll never eat a banana again without thinking of how this fruit is harvested in St Lucia.
I let the boys decide what they will bring on the trip… with supervision. I had to intervene the year one of the boys wanted to bring the 3rd volume of the Harry Potter series (hard back) to read on the plane. This book, at over 450 pages, weighs more than most small appliances!
Josh:
“My first time snorkeling was really fun. After we looked at some different islands, we came to Bird Island. Instead of playing on the beach, we got snorkeling lessons from a crew member of the boat. It was really fun and better than I expected. I thought it was going to be hard to breath, but it was easy. We even saw a crab walking on the ocean floor next to the boat. We had a great lunch with barbeque chicken, pasta, and banana cake for desert. After we left, we came to a snorkeling spot where there was lots of fish and coral. I saw some fish swimming around in the water and it was a really enjoyable experience. I hope I get to go snorkeling again sometime!”
