As a seasoned bunch of travelers, my family loves an “adventure” vacation. This time, I tricked them into an adventure that was really about me being able to relax.

Like most moms, my mornings typically start with the same activities, such as getting the kids up and dressed. Recently though, 7am found me not in my kitchen, but instead floating 4,500 feet above California’s beautiful Temecula Valley in a hot air balloon!
Why would I stay at a campground when I go to Walt Disney World? I’m sure this is a common thought.

So there I was. Sitting at the top of a snowy hill in an inflatable rubber tire. And all of a sudden- whoosh! I was flying down the hill on an inner tube and laughing as I went. This 30-something mom was Cosmic Tubing at Mt. Hood’s SkiBowl!

Within an one-hour drive of historic Girona lie pretty Mediterranean villages offering quiet sandy coves, family activities, excellent seafood, and a wealth of seafaring history. I was surprised by unspoilt nature of the coastline and how well the medieval villages had been restored.
