We are on Facebook

Part of my New Year’s resolution is to learn the social networks a lot better. I am on Linked-In and now Single Parent Travel has their own Facebook Page. I am still learning Facebook, so if any of you experts out there want to be an Administrator, let me know and you can help me modify it. I do have a bet with my son (and I hate to lose) that I cannot get 1000 fans of the page in a month. I am getting a three day jump start…

The Traveling Pants

Brenda sent along this note and I thought–why didn’t I think of that!  But what a fantastic idea for a great memory. When my physical therapist and her sister were in their early teens, their parents divorced.  Their father decided to embrace his new role as a single parent.  Shortly after the separation, he took his 2 daughters for a 2 week trip, a week in London and a week in Israel.  Not knowing how to occupy them for the long plane trip (this was before the proliferation of our…

Travel While You Are Young

While THIS ARTICLE is targeted to young adults, it does have some great reasons to travel while you are young which apply to the much younger crowd that we have. I know that from my own personal travels, my children have met a wide range of people, are more polite and accepting of people that are different, hopefully are more worldly and intelligent (sometimes I wonder), and have a decided appreciation for what it is that we have here in the U.S. When a teacher tries to prevent travel, I…
