Family travel fall 2024

     

Starting in November, one of brightest spots in our state of California is the western monarch migration.

     

From November to February monarch butterflies overwinter in three best monarch sanctuaries - Santa Cruz, Monterey (Pacific Grove) and Pismo Beach.

    It's time to start planning international trips for December holiday season.
     

Christmas season in Europe is unforgettable, and now is the time to plan a trip. Blog post below, five favorite cities for families in December - Munich, London, Seville, Basel, Strasbourg.

     

Weather has become more extreme year round, causing travel disruptions. For your planned family vacation, make backup plans.

      Be sure to have your airline app for notifications and changes in your plane schedule, and family carry-on bags with everything you need, in case flight is delayed.
      Another essential app for live flight information is FlightAware.
      Traveling in Europe, weather also affects train travel. Get the app for your train schedule, so you have notifications for any change in schedule.
     
     

Before and during your trip, check the weather conditions for your destination. In the United States, website weather.gov has most accurate information.

      Also, check the NPS website or app for alerts. In past year, there have been extreme weather events, such as unseasonal wildfires, and flooding.
