We put off booking a trip because we had been waiting for our referral and finally ater putting off booking for almost a year, my Case worker told us there was no chance of us getting a referral soon enough to travel in 2009 so we booked our trip for end of September and then out of the blue, we got our referral and now the trip will only help pass the next stage of the wait and give us some family time with our other kids before our home becomes complete chaos so it works out well.<br /><br />Alberta can be a good destination. West Edmonton Mall, summer festivals, you could visit our family, go see the mountains...<br /><br />Favorite family destinations for me would be: -Panorama (lots of kids and family activities, beautiful scenery)<br />-Disneyland (you just can't go wrong there)<br />-Vancouver Island<br />-Canmore, Jasper, or Banff<br />-a cluster of small towns anywhere<br />-hotels with waterslides or poolsSharlahttp://www.theblessing.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2784135403058574688.post-43016950525017765112009-06-01T08:20:00.509-05:002009-06-01T08:20:00.509-05:00I say Ontario is a great destination :) We were t...I say Ontario is a great destination :) We were the same way with vacation until about 2 months ago... we weren't being fair to the girls. So we are going to the Camping at the North Pole in New York state. Should be fun. I went there as a child. <br /><br />Let's hope this is both our month...
