We napped for an entire afternoon and canceled a visit to a robot museum. And on day four of a trip to DC to explore the monuments, memorials and museums, we decided to forgo the US Bureau of Engraving and instead opted for some pool time and eating dinner in our hotel room. And as much as we are on the go, we do take time for a nap or restful hours when we need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, my kids and husband are similarly geared &#8211; we are early risers, up with the sun, so we\u2019re ready to take on whatever plans we\u2019ve (I\u2019ve) plotted out for the day. We revel in the adrenaline of being somewhere new with different things to see and experience, people to meet, foods to try and seeing what new and remarkable things may be around the corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I strive to see and absorb as much of a place as possible. If we\u2019re taking the time and spending the money to journey to Greece, you bet I want to see as much as possible. Plus, I\u2019m not sure that there are many places that we\u2019ll actually visit more than once, so we want to absorb as much of a destination as we can into our minds and souls. These trips become part of us.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mapsmemoriesandmotherhood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Fast-travel-1.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"fast travel - two young boys sitting on a log at Warren Dunes\" class=\"wp-image-2798\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mapsmemoriesandmotherhood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Fast-travel-1.jpg?resize=768%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mapsmemoriesandmotherhood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Fast-travel-1.jpg?resize=225%2C300&amp;ssl=1 225w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mapsmemoriesandmotherhood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Fast-travel-1.jpg?resize=1080%2C1441&amp;ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mapsmemoriesandmotherhood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Fast-travel-1.jpg?w=1102&amp;ssl=1 1102w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>Warren Dunes State Park was a must-stop on a recent trip to Michigan.

Actually, after returning from a fantastic, but jam-packed trip to South Dakota, I was energized. I dove right back into work and sought out some plans for a 4-day weekend before school started up again in August.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Be flexible. As fun as it is for our family to fast travel, I am also realistic that vacationing with kids means that you have to be flexible, adapt and take your time when needed. Nap time, sleeping in (I have a teenager now), and stopping for snacks to stave the hangries, are all important considerations.<\/li><li>An itinerary is essential for fast travel to ensure you make the most of your trip. Knowing where you are going, when, and how you are going to get there helps you stay on track.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mapsmemoriesandmotherhood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Fast2.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2801\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mapsmemoriesandmotherhood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Fast2.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mapsmemoriesandmotherhood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Fast2.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mapsmemoriesandmotherhood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Fast2.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mapsmemoriesandmotherhood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Fast2.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mapsmemoriesandmotherhood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Fast2.jpg?resize=1080%2C1080&amp;ssl=1 1080w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mapsmemoriesandmotherhood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Fast2.jpg?w=1372&amp;ssl=1 1372w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption> A jam-packed road trip to South Dakota encompassed a lot of stops along the way, including the Ash Fall State Park in Nebraska.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Fast travel family vacations may exhaust me, but I have never regretted being pooped at the end of one of our adventures.
