Southeast Colorado | They actually had this trip scheduled for last year..............but Mom just had her 2nd hip replaced (10 years since her first).............and after this spring's fire where she lost her house, she chose to push it off a year. Most of the time she wanted to take these kids the summer between their Junior and Senior year of high school. She thought they'd probably be too busy after graduating and also they'd still seem a little like a kid instead of a full blown adult. I think it has been really cool. My son was first and he went to Russia (he was studying that in school at the time). My daughter was next and she went on a Mediterranean cruise where they saw Greece, Italy, and Turkey. Mom has now been to China, Germany, Egypt, England, France, Spain, and the above mentioned places. She's also been to Denmark with my sister in law so she's definitely been bit by the bug. So has my now 28 year old daughter. She's traveled way more than I ever have. Pretty cool. I think it's awesome that each grand kid has gotten to know their Grandma better in one on one situations. Pretty sure Grandma's opinion of each grandkid varies quite a bit now..............but that's alright too!
She has used the same travel agent for all of her trips and has gotten some really good deals by doing that. It's a lot more affordable than one would think.
