With the holiday season finally here, you might find yourself with a lot more free time. You and your kids could spend that time at home or around the Math Blaster Space Station… but why not take a little extra time to step outside your front door? The world is out there just waiting to be explored and this time of year is the perfect time to travel with your friends and family.
Some of the most popular places for winter vacations include China, the Cayman Islands, Brazil, and Canada.
In China, thousands will be flocking to the month-long Harbin Ice Festival where you’ll be able to find intricate ice sculptures of dragons and palaces. Your kids can even take slide around ice and go ice-skating in their free time. The festival begins on January 5th and is a must-see for people who love creativity in all forms. To see what the Ice Festival has to offer, all you will need to do is take a train from the larger cities of Beijing or Shanghai.
However, if you are not a fan of the cold, you can always head to warmer climates this holiday season by traveling to a place like the Cayman Islands. While having some fun in this sun locale, you can immerse yourself in sun, diving, snorkeling and even explore the beautiful marine life.
As expenses tend to pile up during the holiday season, international travel may not be in everyone’s budget. Consider going on a road trip to the nearest state and discover places and new cultures in an area a little closer to home. There is so much for your family to see and learn when you step out into new parts of the world.
Holiday travel is a great experience that can bring your loved ones together during the winter season. Whether you choose ice sculptures or snorkeling with turtles, there’s something for everyone when you are traveling around the world. What places do you consider great winter vacation spots?
