About us
This blog is about our adventures with our children through their tween and teen years. We will be exploring the best things to do with teens and tweens in different destinations, what to take on trips with teens and tweens, and what to feed them! Our oldest son is vegetarian so we will be looking at how good each destination is for vegetarians and the best places to eat with vegetarians.
