Ahhh\u2026 the often-hackneyed New Year\u2019s resolution list!  But you won\u2019t find this one telling you to exercise more, eat less and drink wine in moderation. Instead, this list of New Year’s travel resolutions is to help make your family\u2019s journeys for 2020 and beyond even better.  And unlike the oft-repeated \u201ceat more superfoods\u201d, they are realistic ideas and things you can actually accomplish.  May your 2020 and the next decade be filled with adventure, wonder and joy no matter if you are trekking in your neck of the woods or exploring the world!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Enroll kids in frequent flyer programs<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I still kick myself for not doing this sooner and missed out on thousands of miles by not signing the boys up for frequent flyer programs with the first airline miles they flew. Even if you just pick out the two airlines you expect to fly the most, it is worth the five minutes to enroll them. The next step, and even more important, is to make sure you put their FF numbers in a safe place where you will remember them or add it to your address book.\u00a0 One of my New Year’s travel resolutions is to locate all of their numbers and put them in a place.for easy access.\u00a0 You don\u2019t want to be scrambling to find them when you find that great deal to visit your in-laws in Phoenix (a 3244- mile round trip flight for us). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting passports for your kids opens the world to them!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Get passports for the kids (and for you if you don\u2019t already have one) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

U.S. passports are good for 10 years, and you never know when that once-in-a-lifetime deal to Paris or a cheap fare to Mexico is going to pop up and change your spring break plans.  It happened to us two years ago.  We had planned a road trip to Coastal South Carolina, and a $400 fare to Tokyo magically appeared one Sunday<\/span> morning that we couldn\u2019t resist. Thank goodness we already had passports for the boys. The paperwork doesn\u2019t take too long to fill out, but you\u2019ll need birth certificates and about six weeks for processing. The $110 fee may seem expensive, but if you average it out over the 10 years, that\u2019s just $11 a year.  It\u2019s also a unique and special gift for a special occasion – perfect for a graduation gift, birthday or wedding present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Make Photo Books of Trips.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know, I know.\u00a0This is easier said than done, and\u00a0is the bane of existence for many moms (well, it is for this one), but with websites like\u00a0Mixbook<\/a>\u00a0where you can simply drag and drop your FaceBook, Instagram and Google Photos pictures into your account. You don\u2019t have to be a scrapbooking master or take three years to do it.\u00a0 There\u2019s even an option for travel books.\u00a0Once you import your photos to your account, you can choose to autofill directly into the book, which literally took me one minute to do. Have wi-fi on your flight home? Do it then! I have a girlfriend who builds in time post-vacation to make the books and gives them to her kids for Christmas.\u00a0They love it \u2013 and everyone enjoys reliving the memories of when they got caught in the rainstorm while hiking the Canadian Rockies or when they met Ricky Martin in a handicraft store in Tokyo (true story).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Roam Close to Home<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We often forget about the unique activities and attractions that are in our backyard (or within a few hours of our house).\u00a0 Sure we hit the zoo and big museums often, but what about visiting the largest rocking chair or mailbox in the world? (both in Casey, IL),\u00a0visiting bison on the prairie,<\/a> or searching for the biggest pork tenderloin sandwich in the United States at a hole-in-the-wall restaurant on the Indiana-Illinois state line?\u00a0A journey is all about what you make of it and the memories that it creates, so get out there and be a tourist in your own state.<\/strong>\u00a0 You\u2019ll be amazed at the fun you\u2019ll have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Create a family travel bucket list<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"new<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve been talking about our 2020 travel plans for the last month or so, and still haven’t decided on our summer trip. Belize was on the list for a while, but now we\u2019re thinking the boys should be a little older when we go. Oh, what about Vietnam or Vancouver for 2020?\u00a0 Nick wants to visit Normandy. The boys want to head to Hawaii, and mom is interested in Morocco. Having a bucket list with ideas<\/a> of where to go and when can help solve this conundrum and help you plan. I often say, \u201cit\u2019s all in my head\u201d, but actually writing down our goal vacation destinations will make for easier planning. Plus, if you see a great deal pop up to somewhere on your list (I am still waiting for that deal to Marrakesh), you can grab it immediately and be on your way. And you’ll be happy you had some easy New Year’s travel resolutions that got you there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
