Time to Vent

Jun 29, 2024 · Scott Paul · 200 words

I’ve been traveling with my wife, 2 teenagers and a 9 year old.  Me and 3 females for a month!

Today was a long drive and a longer evening where we would have all tapped out and taken the flight home tonight.  My teens want that “fly home now” button almost everyday we are here.  I, also, have been tempted to abandon them once or twice in an Airbnb and go to the local bar and get completely sloshed with some Italians watching soccer.

But, here we are, 3 days left, and we will remember the highlights and hopefully forget the lows.  If our family adventure were a reality show, it would be unhinged and rated mature for language and a few other reasons, just not violence…yet.

But each day we get back out of bed and experience the location and each other and make memories. I think I’m doing a good job some of the time, I would get gold stars being a dad for other kids, but I am rewarded zero points from my kids. When they try to travel in the future they will realize how crazy good these days were, I hope.
