Whadda ya mean blaming me for your “itchy foot”? Crikey, I only drove you to 47 states…….we had to fly to Hawaii and Alaska however. Remember to always leave ‘em some place to find on their own though. How long did it take you to get to the 50th state??? We made up for travel time in the air on the way to Australia.

Gee, I bet Shadow still has the record for getting her feet wet. Remember how she “used the potty” in 47 states as well? Her record for getting her paws wet in both oceans, the Gulf of Mexico, and all 5 Great Lakes was quite a feet (pun)too……..and she crossed the Mississippi in 8 different places.

Goodness, I guess I might have to admit to a bit of your wanderlust……or we could blame the DOG!

Two words: House swap. If you cut accommodation from the equation, it reduces costs considerably. Sites like Homelink and Diggsville offer members a way to do this.

Airtran? Is that like Travelocity? We get a lot of free points since we travel to the US a lot. However, we have the opportunity to fly without horrible layovers. Since we are traveling with a toddler, the faster the better!

We have cut costs by visiting people we know, are going with family friends splitting costs and renting a house. This is pretty common in Europe, there are a plethora of vacation homes you can rent. That way you can cook at home like a home away from home. Plus it is fun to see how the natives shop, learn the language and all.
