Helping busy families relax and reconnect through travel is one the main reasons we do what we do at Southern Girl Travel. But, I am often struck by those unexpected pleasures of travel that go far beyond mere relaxation.

We have a circle of close friends who live in the Baltimore area and we are active with a non-profit headquartered there. As such, we travel to Baltimore a number of times a year, sometimes more. While Baltimore does not immediately come to mind for most folks as a U.S. vacation paradise, there are great things to enjoy around Baltimore, especially from a historical perspective.

By Mark

IMG_5938-700

Have you ever been sick on a vacation?

I have…for almost our entire November 2013 family visit to Walt Disney World, I had a nasty stomach bug.

Nothing life-threatening, but annoying just the same (thankfully, Disney has plenty of great, clean restrooms located around all the parks).

The experience left me thinking, though:

What in the world do you do with a child who suddenly becomes sick at Walt Disney World?

I’m thinking of that bad cold, sore throat, or low fever…nothing severe or life-threatening, but enough to put a damper on an otherwise magical visit.

You actually have plenty of good options for dealing with minor illnesses, and this short post should help. [Read more…]
