Spent probably $7000 between 2 big trips. 6 days in Washington and Oregon roaming National Parks and other cool places. 5 days in Banff celebrating my 10 year anniversary (no kids on that one). We ate out quite well every night.
Couldn't imagine spending more than that just to go sit on a beach

Beach front Florabama area. 3 beds 2 baths. Note: We skipped 30A this year which would have been 2X or 3X more expensive and had just as nice a time in fact even better without all the wristbands required to get on the beach and long walks back to the house.
Did the same but with a 3 bedroom condo. It’s nice to walk up to Florabama for bushwhackers.
We love 30A, but frick…Europe is cheaper.

June's Summer Party was an $18k sewer line repair. I think for August we'll have the roof redone. A great time was had by all.

Way too much, we finally built our pool and patio

We have a pool at home, so we don't travel in the summer

My gf and I are taking my parents out to Yellowstone area next week, staying in Emigrant, MT for a full week.
Travel, lodging, and rental car costs will be somewhere around $3,500-$4,000 total for the 4 of us.

Have 43 foot fifth wheel. 4 long weekends to lakes, week at the beach, have another planned for Chattanooga area over kids fall break.
Even counting the RV payment and insurance, were less than what we used to spend for a week at cape San blas. It's different for sure, but we like it.

$0 for summer vacation.
Cheaper to go after summer.
Budgeted about $3k for that post summer vacation because it’s with 4 other couples.
Since this is the OT I will probably ONLY sex up my wife…maybe.

I only paid for travel and incidentals.
I literally answered the question that was asked. No more.

Went to Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. It was about $15k or so. Roatan is coming up in a few months and that’s another couple grand but it’s strictly diving so I don’t mind at all!

$6.5K all-in for a 6 person, 6 day trip (well, 4 days onsite and 2 driving) to Universal. Stayed onsite and got the fast pass thing for 4 kiddos one day.
$5K for tickets and lodging
$1.5K for meals and gas
Hopefully last theme park for a long while. Planning a Costa Rica trip for Dec/Jan. Then maybe Alaska or Pacific NW next Fall.

This summer, we went to Orange beach, Pensacola Beach (didn't have to pay for the condo at this one thankfully), and Broken Bow. Also did a quick weekend to Epcot, but that was adult only. Probably spent $8k or so total.
We did a 7 night cruise for Mardi Gras and have a 7 night Disney cruise in a couple months, and I have a guys weekend in Nov that dwarf the summer number, but those don't count, right?
