D-2
It's a certainty that things can be difficult when you travel. You're tired or hungry or both. Some people you have to be with are annoying. You have expectations that don't get met. Sometimes things just go terribly wrong. At one hotel they added one more boy to the room and just tucked cots on each side of the two beds. (left) To get around they had to climb over each other. In another room the cot was in a permanently folded position. (below) Imagine sleeping shaped like an accordian. Last trip we spent a hellish night on a train from Rome t
o Paris. The windows wouldn't open & the AC was broken. It was like 8 hours in a sauna. I thought we would hear all kinds of complaints from the kids. Nope, they all dusted off their very best positive attitudes and found things to do and reasons to laugh. The trip is only as great as you allow it to be.
