Thanks Mike, I know that your words will encourage a lot of parents who think that their travel days are numbered.

I can imagine all of that howling bouncing off of those cave walls!

yes, traveling with kids can be richly rewarding, or downright punishing. My wife and I took our son to Colorado when he was 6 months, no problem. Tried again the following year, turned around in Red River, NM. Thought we’d do some day trips instead. Halfway through the tour of delightful Natural Bridge Caverns, Mr. 18-month-old began howling, didn’t stop until I exited the cave, well ahead of the tour. That was it for THAT summer.

Luckily, I can report that both our kids, now 16 & 19, are seasoned travelers. We have a number of great family trips to Big Bend, Caddo Lake, Port A, Seattle, Portland, Bend, Eugene and the Netherlands to recall. Don’t let one trip from hades put you off!
