We finally took our first overseas family trip last November to Vanuatu. We chose Vanuatu because it was only a 3 hour flight away and also because it was a country neither David and I have been to. I've finally hit my 50th country milestone! We only went for a week but boy was it an expensive country to visit! I chose a family friendly resort (the Aquana) thinking Lucas would be happy with the children's activities and having his own nanny but alas, Lucas didn't take to any of the nannies there. They were all lovely and accommodating but Lucas just did not take to the change in people and was more clingy than usual.
Still, we did manage to kayak around the beautiful bay and do some snorkeling. We took Lucas with us on all those activities and took turns looking after him. We had all the familiarity of Australia (good ol' channel 22 even worked there!) with the lovely water views from our bungalow and yummy resort food. It's not a place I would return though, not enough to do to justify a 2nd visit. I would much rather spend the same amount of money in Japan or a resort in Asia. Still, I'm glad it was an easy first trip for the 3 of us.
