Family trips have a bad reputation. When most people think of a family trip, they think of being forced to sit in a cramped car with the rest of their siblings and parents. They then have to drive for what seems like an endless amount of time, and the destination that they end up reaching is not even enjoyable for them (although their parents act like it is the greatest experience ever).

The reason that I am saying that family trips don’t have to be un-enjoyable is because I took my family on a trip last month, and I am confident in saying that we all had a great time. Instead of driving to a cliche destination, we decided to fly to Luton. Once we got to Luton, we made share that we did a variety of different things that everyone would like. We also didn’t feel the need to stay together twenty-four hours a day, and took time to individually enjoy things that each of us liked. When we returned from our trip, I asked everyone for their honest opinion about the trip, and everyone in my family (including myself) agreed that we had a really fun time together.
