Engaging teens on Africa safaris

Planning a summer trip with teenagers can be tricky. The usual beach resorts and kids’ clubs are not a fit for them anymore.

One of the best family travel I think is combining a trip to Egypt with an East African Safari. The attractions these two destinations offers is of interest to inter generations, entertaining, educative and will generate discussion topics between the grand parent and the grand kid

The Southern Sierra Nevadas. Kern River, rafting, giant sequoias and more. I makes an interesting side trip from Bakerfield, California, but Kernville is also a destination in its own right. The trip report is now online at The World on Wheels: http://tinyurl.com/23t7b2z

I'm not a fan of the all-gambling, all-partying atmosphere of Vegas. I do like a little of each but want something more.

Vow you'd never set foot on a cruise ship? Boorish passengers, long lines and mediocre food -- what kind of vacation is that? Well, if you're a parent, you may want to eat your words.
