We recently travelled to Hawaii with our then 21-month old toddler. As you can imagine it was a lot of work and required lots of research and planning. But in the end we had the vacation of a lifetime, with memories sure to stay with us for a long time. The trick is, lots of activities with water and sand. Anyway if you need some tips on how to plan a vacation with a toddler, check out Babble’s “10 Toddler Vacationing Tips”.

Did You Mean Yes?

25 07 2009

Did you know shaking your head means yes in Nepal? I wish I knew that when I was there in 1999. I asked a driver to take me to another town and he kept shaking his head. It took me a while before I realized he was saying yes. If you are planning to travel to another country, check out Travel Etiquette’s website first. They have over 60 articles organized by countries to help you navigate the uncharted territory. You can read it here. (via lifehacker)
