Hitting the Road? Survive the Winter Travel Season with the Help of Disney Family.com (closed)
Do you tend to get lost in the shuffle between family, work & holiday-related obligations and festivities?
I know I do! I’d love a little “me time” to just relax by a warm fire and read a book, or give myself a pedicure. I always tend to ignore my toes in the winter, telling myself that no one will see them anyway!
But back to traveling. Having just taken a family road trip this weekend, I know how important it is to have the information you need to plan your vacation. Because – really – who does ALL the research, books the hotel, picks the restaurants? Mom does. At least that’s how it works in our family.

Thank you!
I’ll be home for Christmas and that’s nice but you know, this year I’d have liked to take off for warmer places for the holidays. The beach would be nice.
We travel to my brother’s house on Christmas Eve, and my in-laws house on Christmas Day. Luckily, they are both within an hour drive. Thanks!
We will be going to my hubby’s grandma’s and to my brothers.
I travel to my sister and meet up with the rest of my family for a Christmas Buffett! Yeah

We have no plans to travel before Christmas but maybe after.
This year I get to travel to Wisconsin from North Dakota to be with my brother and his family. Totally worth it

No long distance travel plans, just an hour away, but with a Minnesota winter you never know.
I’m staying home – wish I wasn’t!
My husband and I have to make it to five family parties in two days.
We are staying home this year!
We will be traveling to see my family and my brother in-law, who will be home for R&R from Kuwait!
We’ll be staying home this holiday season.
We get to stay home…but the family is coming to our house…so it’s just as hectic!
Were staying home having all the relatives over
We like to stay close to home for the holidays- we do spend Christmas eve morning up at Ken’s mom’s house (half a block away) and then it’s home for us. We do drive around looking at the lights but that’s as far as we go.

We’re staying home.
We are blessed to go get the real tree but no other travel plans.!
This year I get to stay home — which is a rare thing! I live in Oregon and my family is in Maine, my husband’s in Maryland. As a result, we end up traveling on both holidays most years.
We’ll be staying home this holiday season. Our little one is too small to travel far and we did most of the family gathering at Thanksgiving!
I’ll be staying home. The most traveling will be about 10 minutes to my daughter’s home.

I’m staying home this holiday season. I was hoping to head to Florida to see my grandparents, but it wasn’t in the cards!
We have to travel to visit my parents for the holidays, and this would be great for the car!
