Do you travel alone or with friends/family?

Family and Friends

Tried the family and friends thing a couple of times, it's ok but I prefer just my wife and I and then we don't have to worry about other people having a good time, just us, and we do that very well. Next trip Hawaii in November
2 weeks of aloha

Mostly just hubby and I. Did two trips to Europe with my sister and her hubby, that was one too many. Took the youngest son to Spain, that was fun, met best friend in London for my first time there, took oldest to Hawaii, he was a PITA. Take youngest and wife to beach, that worked out OK. Have another couple that hubby works with, they like to travel with us, but like to spend LOTS and are very picky where they stay (they just backed out of Labor Day weekend at a lovely beach house cause they don't want to share a bathroom). Their loss. Hubby and I will go alone to Alaska next year, and alone on a cruise this winter. That way I get to plan and do what I want. Hubby likes being told to just show up.

Friends and family

We have some close friends that we regularly travel with. We've done this for over 10 years, and we are really comfortable about travelling together. We've also travelled with our grown children and their SOs. That is lots of fun, but it can get expensive since we usually pay for everything.

One year we booked a 3 BD Presidential at Grand Desert in Vegas. Our kids were there for 3 nights, and left. Then my DH's sister and spouse and cousin and spouse came for the last 4 nights. That was really fun - like 2 separate vacations and only one air trip.

But I really like travelling alone with my honey. When it's just the 2 of us, we can go where we want when we want. Or do nothing at all. We are doing a week at the GM in Cancun in March, and we have a 2 BD booked. We have offered the 2nd BD to a variety of friends and family and still no takers. I am not going to be disappointed if no one else travels with us.

So I guess the bottom line is that I don't care if I'm alone or with someone, as long as I'm going somewhere.
