Welcome to Monday Escapes on Monday the 30th Jan.

Its been a quiet month for us travel wise, I am still trying to decide exactly how we want to spend our travel time this year. And with a son sitting his GCSE’s it is going to be all about chill time to give him the opportunity to revise in the sun. We are starting off with Greece at Easter, where he can sit in the sun on our terrace and revise. Thats what family travel is all about isn’t it? Adapting to family life, but here’s hoping we get some adventure in once the exams are over.

What have you all been up to?

5 Money Saving Tips When Traveling As A Family

Monday Escapes as I’m sure you all know by now, is a place to link up your travel memories

We host #MondayEscapes every two weeks and we now have a fabulous sponsor Lonely Planet. We are absolutely delighted to link up with Lonely Planet to offer our number one favourite blog post of the fortnight either a destination guide, or a title from the Lonely Planet Kids range. (See T&C’s below). Just another great reason to link up with Monday Escapes!

Your hosts are Karen at Mini Travellers,  Lisa at Travel Loving Family and Clare at Tin Box Traveller, and myself. With Karen and I commenting on all your lovely posts this for this week.

Monday Escapes is all about looking back at wonderful, happy travel memories and sharing them with others. It doesn’t have to be about a trip abroad or even be a written post. If you want to share your favourite snapshots – whether it’s a famous sight, scene, dramatic view or even a favourite family photo, then please feel free to link those up, too. Likewise, posts don’t have to be about holidays or weekends away, they can also include day trips, walks, attractions – any travel experience that you want to share.

Claire and Lisa’s favourite posts from last week are:

Love TravelLatte’s guide to finding the best hotel in Paris. As someone who always finds it an absolute nightmare to select a hotel, particularly when booking a city break, I think starting a hotel search with an itinerary followed by budget, style and reviews makes complete sense.

Lucille from Expitterpattica post was really inspiring. She has continued to see some of Europe’s iconic sights after starting a family and has great tips for instilling wanderlust in children from a young age.

Daislikethese’s collection of exotic spots in France was fantastic. They looked more like places you’d find in the Caribbean. It’s made me think differently about a holiday across the Channel.
