A huge bucket list item for the Diapers on a Plane Family is taking a hot air balloon ride. We love watching the balloons get filled with helium in the early brisk mornings during the Freedom Days festival in our local town, and then look on in awe as hundreds of balloons take to the skies in succession.

Catherine - 0
I was completely oblivious to what was going on, until the screaming and the shouting became so loud and overpowering that it was impossible to tune out. The three older kids and I were swimming in the ocean at family beach Balneario El Escambrón. The beach here is protected by a coral reef that creates a half moon circular...
Experiencing a Bioluminescent Bay is a like witnessing a fairy tale come to life. Magic flows straight from your fingertips and metamorphoses into a million twinkling stars submerged underwater. Our Vieques Bio Bay Tour was the night we saw the stars turn upside down.

The Truth About What Happens at a Korean Jjimjilbang [SPASIS REVIEW]
Catherine - 2
Koreans love indoor public bath houses.
Totally nude public bath houses.
I walked into the women’s dressing room with my three little daughters and wanted to walk immediately out.
This is what to expect inside a Korean Jjimjilbang with kids!

No matter where you are in the world, or what nationality you hail from, there is just something comforting about a Chinatown. You can count on it in every city, from San Francisco to Incheon, Korea.

Catherine - 0
The twins baptism is fast approaching, and since they are getting baptized in Korea we thought it would be special to incorporate as much of the Korean culture as possible. We’d been browsing the stores as we went about our adventures, but we needed to dedicate some time to really finding some dress clothes for both kids. The plan...
