Tuesday's Tips

 

       Final tips for cruising with kids.    

      Pack bug spray and sunscreen.  Miserable children can make for miserable parents!

2.      Bring a white board.  Once aboard you may be going in 8 different directions at once.  Use the board to track where people are headed.  And have a set time for all to show up at some common area.

3.      Look behind the scenes.  Some cruise lines do offer guided tours of the working parts os the ship.  Check with the customer service desk at the start of the voyage.  It can be educational and might even spark an interest in navigation, the hospitality industry or just travel in general.

4.      Be prepared.  WE usually wear our swimsuits on arriving at the ship for departure. There are times when your stateroom will not be ready for you at the very beginning of the cruise.  But the pool is open!  And there are usually snack bars around there, too!

5.      Finally. Make Sure Your Include a parent’s Night OUT!  At least one night should be spent alone.  A cruise ship is a very good place to allow your children to try out acting independently. Or there is babysitting available on most cruise lines also. Or a kid’s club may be available.

Remember it is your vacation also!!!

In Memory of Those who have Fallen FOR US

 It is the
VETERAN,
not the preacher,
who has given us freedom of religion.


It is
the VETERAN,
not the campus organizer,
who has given us freedom to assemble.

It is
the VETERAN,
not the lawyer,
who has given us the right to a fair trial.


It is
the VETERAN,
not the politician,
Who has given us the right to vote.

It is the
VETERAN who
salutes the Flag,

3. Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historic Park

 

What Dreams We Have And How They Fly

 Three exceptional men from Dayton, Ohio, Wilbur Wright, Orville Wright and Paul Laurence Dunbar, found their creative outlet here through accomplishments and failures, and finally success. However, these men offered the world something far greater, they offered the world hope, and the ability to take a dream and make it a reality.

                            

Places To Visit

 Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park invites you to explore its five sites - the Wright Cycle Company complex, the Wright Brothers Aviation Center at Carillon Park, the Huffman Prairie Flying Field and Interpretive Center on Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, the Paul Laurence Dunbar State Memorial, and Hawthorn Hill.
