Now that our long weekend in the mountains is over, it’s time to start looking forward to the next get away. The kids’ father is taking them on a trip during February vacation. That means we need to look toward April.
At first we thought of driving back to Disney. There are two downsides to that. First, my step daughter hates amusement park rides. If we went to Disney she would spend a lot of time being bored waiting for rides to end. The other problem is that my step son is a little nine year old dare devil. He will go on any ride at any time. That means one of the adults has to go on the death defying rides with him, and that just ain’t happening.
So we were sitting down to lunch today and we asked the kids to suggest a place we could travel to. My step son threw out Phoenix. That’s a good idea, but a little too far for a road trip. My step daughter came up with Quebec City. Now there’s an interesting idea. Jen then added a stop in Niagara Falls, which lead to stops in Toronto and Montreal. Now we’re talkin’, eh?
We often plan elaborate road trips like this, and we usually scrap the plans and just go to San Diego. For now though… Oh Canada!

Just don’t forget to apply for your passport right after New Year’s so you’ll have it in time! Personally I would scrap Quebec City and go to Toronto instead. Google it and you’ll see a bunch of really, really, neat stuff to do. And you (and the kids too) are absolutely going to fall in love with Niagara Falls — but from the Canadian side. You could easily spend at least a couple of days at the Falls, and the rest of the time in Toronto. Check it out!
