When the Going Gets Tough - Must-Read Photo Captions from Family Travelers

contest travel with kids

Most of us have experienced it – nappy change while in a rush to check in at the airport, meltdowns during a flight, potty breaks anywhere, mess (and more mess).

And oh, not to mention the mosquito bites, jet lag, snacks (and more snacks), lost toys (followed by tantrums), and all other nuisances of traveling with kids.

Yes, we all have our stories to tell.

Despite all these, we can all agree that traveling with kids is the best experience ever.

They say a picture paints a thousand words. To get a glimpse of how amazing traveling with kids can be, we asked family travelers to caption this photo.

 

Their answers reveal so much about the fun, stress, and surprises of traveling with kids which you most probably can relate to!

Experienced family travelers will tell you the same thing – plan for everything but let go of expectations.  Even the best-laid plans can go awry. Kids are unpredictable. But they are smart. Energetic. Always willing to explore the things around them. More than anything, they are always grateful – appreciating every single place and moment shared with you. And that makes kids the best travel buddies ever!

So, book that flight you’ve been dreaming about. Don’t worry about the nappy changes, jet lag, potty breaks, meltdowns, and the mess. You are going to get over it all. But you can’t miss having a trip of a lifetime with the most important little people in your life.
