With so many
family members separated by busy schedules, different lifestyles, and hundred
or thousand of miles, taking a vacation together is a wonderful opportunity to
bring everyone together and forge new family bonds. Multi-generation travel is
becoming more common today and many luxury timeshare properties make it easy
for up to three generations to stay in the same unit, sharing common areas just
like at home. But vacationing under one
roof allows families to reconnect in many more ways than just watching TV
together or sharing a formal family function.
Kids get to
enjoy the company of their relatives in a more informal and relaxed setting.
They love the extra attention everyone can give them without the distractions
of everyday life. Grandparents get to spend a lot more time with their children
and grandchildren than they would during a holiday meal. This gives them an
opportunity to share childhood stories the grandkids may never have heard of
before. Grown-ups get a chance to share what’s been going on in their busy
lives over a glass of wine or a cocktail while relaxing by the pool or visiting
a brand new city.
Traveling
together gives families the opportunity to share their vacation with the people
they love the most and make one-of-a-kind memories. If you’ve taken a
multi-generational vacation, what did you enjoy the most about it? If you
haven’t yet, where would you take your whole family and why?
