What’s YOUR
favorite winter
vacation destination?
If you prefer your winter vacation with a side of
palm trees rather than fur-trimmed snow boots
and knit beanies, you're not alone. For many
moms and dads, the need to take a break
from the cold grows as winter seemingly
drags on and on. We recently asked
parents: If you could go anywhere with your

family to escape the cold weather, where
Plus would you go and why? Here's what they said.

"Morocco, because it's
warm and European
countries are so
family-friendly." “Cancun or Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. I went
to Acapulco, Mexico, when I was 18 for a
week, and it's so beautiful and welcoming.

The beach resort is amazing. The sea life
you can see in the clear blue warm water
is hypnotic, and my daughter has always
wanted to swim with a whale shark. So
Cancun and Cabo San Lucas are next on my
list in Mexico one day. Also, the street food
is absolutely amazing and mouth watering."

"Seychelles or the Maldives. They are on my
bucket list and are supposed to be gorgeous."

"I mean, it would have to be Disneyworld. We have two little
ones, and they are getting to the age where we would love to
take them so they can really experience everything."
