I think the point here is that if you are incorporating your family on vacation, there is no reason to automatically discount touring, there are many ways to do it that children can enjoy it.
Not in my world. A family is made up of individuals who have their own interests. I’m not going to play video games because a kid thinks they are fun. I’m not going to bore anyone with details of my work day, although I think it is fascinating. OK, maybe I’ll try, but if it becomes apparent the details are uninteresting, I’ll immediately stop. People know I ride bikes to work and on vacation. 99.9% of the details are completely uninteresting to others. That’s why I post here. At least there is a tiny audience that may care a little.
