We made a game of “counting cats” on the streets on Athens- there are so many! Our little loved trying to count the most each day. We also discovered that with a digital camera in hand, she enjoyed the monuments and museums quite a bit more. She loved documenting her trip that way.

Hillary's Travel Tips for Anaheim

What are the best places to eat and drink in Anaheim?

I have several food allergies and also kids that don't want more than an allergy friendly menu. We were pleasantly surprised at how many options the Anaheim Packing District had. My toddler could get French Fries (Georgia's Kitchen) , my preschooler loved a specialty popsicle (Popbar). my husband loved his fish and chips (The Chippy Fish & Grill) and I found several allergy friendly options at Healthy Junk at the House. For a family with different preferences, this worked really well for us.

What are the best things to do in Anaheim?

We traveled mostly for Disneyland, but also went tot the Anaheim Packing District. We loved our dining experience and all the offerings at the Anaheim Packing District. Disneyland was a hit for our family. Our preschooler had been counting down the days until our visit for months. We all were able to do so much. Even at 8 months pregnant I could safely ride several rides as could my two year old.

What is the best tip for travelling with kids to Anaheim?

If you're going for a Disney trip, expect to do less than you expect. Our preschooler and toddler spent time dancing and popping bubbles. We didn't rush these moments. We knew we had so much to fit in, but moments where they could just be happy dancing weren't worth rushing. We also suggest going early. Do as much as you can before the park gets busy. We did 90 percent of the rides by 2pm just by using Genie Plus and going in with a touring strategy for what we knew our kids would enjoy most. We were then able to go back to the resort for naps and pool time.

Afternoon tea at the Rubens at the Palace hotel! All of the foods were delicious and it’s the best tea we’ve ever had.

Katie's Travel Tips for Sydney

What are the best places to eat and drink in Sydney?

The Fine Food Store in The Rocks was fantastic. A modern twist on classics, something for everyone, including Gluten Free options. It's off the beaten path in a cobblestone alleyway and provides that historic charm and ambiance you expect from historic towns.

What are the best things to do in Sydney?

The coastal walk from Bondi to Coogee beach was breathtaking. You can start at either end and stop at all the beaches in between for cafe refreshements and a quick swim to cool off.

What is the best tip for travelling with kids to Sydney?

Booking a hotel with a pool (not hard to find) was key to beating jet lag and the warm Sydney summer. Taronga Zoo is another winner for the whole family- lots to explore and enjoy!

What are the best places to eat and drink in London?

Fave restaurant: stack + still for their extraordinary pancakes! Breakfast is an all day celebration of greatness in the form of sweet and savory here (kabob pancakes- need I say more?)

Star Noodle - excellent food up near Lahaina. Fleetwoods too was great up there. Down in Kihei we enjoyed the Happy Belly food truck (drunken Udon noodles were delicious). We also liked Penny’s Pasta and Lava Rock in Kihei. MonkeyPod in Wailea was a great spot too!

What are the best things to do in Maui?

Went Snorkeling on the Four Winds II - would absolutely recommend. Smaller amount of people. Less chaotic. Beautiful snorkeling waters. Helicopter tours with Maverick Helicopters - 12/10 experience. Saw the wall of tears and went in some incredibly remote valleys. Haleakala sunrise tour - if you can get the benefit of the weather.. the sunrise on top of the volcano is second to none.
