Apossession of Spain, Tenerife is the largest of the chain of Canary Islands located a few hundred kilometers west of Morocco, in the Atlantic Ocean It’s popularity as a warmweather tourist destination is due in part to its massive and well-advertised beaches but the waters surrounding this lovely locale often end up being colder than what was hoped for by people who plan the trip Sea temperatures at this point above the equator simply do not ever get much higher than 75 F (24 C) but you will get used to it pretty quickly
Scuba excursions and full-day beach trips are a top choice for people who go to any of these islands, where it’s warm enough coming out of the water to quickly dry off and feel marvelous under the ubiquitous sunlight� Beaches, or playas in Spanish, are calmest when not situated in too much of a cove or inlet, but wave action can be found at several really nice beaches around the island
The most-visited family beach in Tenerife might be Playa de Los Cristianos, which
can be accessed by at least two of the city bus lines that run around the island
Playa de las Teresitas is also family friendly and remember to bring some extra loose euro because most beaches charge to rent out a space to reserve a few wooden beach chairs The designed inlet at Teresitas is calm and teeming with underwater sights that will delight snorkelers On all of the playas there are scattered beach spots that serve good food and drink when the time presents itself� Planning most of the trip, or at least portions of each day, will save visitors a lot of money because there are so many interesting and not-tooexpensive things to do here and throughout the Canary Islands
A water park with lots of slides is Siam Park, which is said to be one of the best such recreational outlets The park has long lines at times and is virtually empty at others Still, with three children between the ages of 3 and 9, we would have been better off choosing one of the island’s other water parks, which didn’t have height restrictions on most of the slides� Researching this would have made for more memories and given us more bang for the bucks we spent At Siam Park, too, the top attraction – an extremely steep slide from
the park’s highest point – wasn’t even open the day we were there
Tourists often rent cars on Tenerife and pile all their beach gear into the trunk for a day of tooling around away from their hotel or condo home base The island has an almost completely circular highway road that is hard to get lost on and a top attraction many people seek out is the Mount Teide volcano� The Canary Islands are home to several volcanoes and Teide is a destination that can be hiked up to once the car is parked and secured Planning time for traversing the circuitous island route and actually getting up close and personal with Teide will not disappoint, so pack a picnic lunch and some sunblock to make a full day of it
Restaurants are prevalent throughout the various towns around the island and most accept or require reservations, which can ease the process of taking a large group to supper each night Daytime meals of breakfast and lunch are more geared to constant tourist traffic and no call ahead is required Just up from Playa de los Cristianos is a place called Delicias Del Mar that is outstanding in that you choose from a variety of fresh caught seafood presented on ice The dress code is always favorable to anyone who walks through the door
Keep in mind, too, that there are always going to be respected grocery stores within walking distance that have just about any item one could desire and it makes good sense to utilize these outlets to keep one’s
domicile stocked with liquid refreshments, chips and snacks, sandwich meat, bread, and condiments There are ways to spend a whole lot of money on a trip like this and one such method is to eat out at a restaurant for every meal while you are on the island Show prudence and you will be fine�
Spots not to miss if you do rent a car or taxi are many, but the list always begins with the Los Gigantes sea cliffs� The spectacular view is best if you can take it in from a boat but we saw other angles that also gave superior sightlines when we left our rented chateau and drove north on Highway 1 less than 20 kilometers Some friends of ours just returned from more than a week on the island and rented a dune buggy, while other options such as scooters and jet skis are as prevalent as you would find in Mallorca or Cozumel
Guided tours and excursions are set up all over the island and tons of hawkers can be seen each day passing out pamphlets and luring people to sign up The truth is, though, that it’s better to research things ahead of time via the Internet, then get your own vehicle to tackle the bucket list on your own For instance, some of the best hiking is through the Anaga Mountains and National Park on the northeastern expanse of Tenerife This is safe, secure, and redeeming with its natural beauty of various landscape and rock formations Rent the car or SUV, pack the provisions, and set out on your own adventure� Tenerife does not disappoint!
The most affordable non-stop flights to Tenerife depart dailyfrom
Frankfurt, whisking peopleaway
to a destination that both satisfies the craving for a beach and adventure.
Nothing is more refreshing on a hot summer’s day than a dip in cool, clear water. While the KMC is a bit landlocked, the surrounding areas offer a number of pools to help you beat the summer heat. It is important, however, to remain safe and courteous when visiting local swimming holes.
Pool safety is necessary to enjoy leisure-time swimming According to the Centers for Disease Control, Americans suffer from about ten deaths per day caused by accidental drowning Even more alarming, about one in five of those who die from drowning are children age 14 and younger
Children benefit greatly from learning to swim at a young age The Ramstein Aquatic Center offers swimming lessons by instructors certified by The American Red Cross� Learning proper swimming technique and safety is one of the most important steps in preparing for a day at the pool
In addition to staying safe, visitors should aim to behave properly while at the pool and respect local customs There is a set of expectations for behavior for children and adults alike Here is an outline of pool rules and recommendations to help make swim time more enjoyable Before diving in, take a look around at posted signs indicating what areas are intended for eating, swimming, smoking, etc� There are usually designated locations for each of these activities
Eating at the pool is encouraged� Pack a picnic to share, but be sure not to eat or drink while in the pool Find a spot in the grass or a picnic table before you chow down If you aren’t interested in bringing your own food, many local pools have snack shacks selling goodies Just be sure to bring euros to spend, as credit cards may not be accepted
When lounging at German pools, prepare to lay your towel in the grass There may be some areas to sit near the pool, but most people will be stretched out and sunning on the lawn Shady spots may be limited, so bringing an umbrella is never a bad idea� Limiting sun exposure is one way to reduce risk of skin damage caused by the summer’s strong UV rays
Because walking through the grass can lead to muddy toes, be sure to shower off before going for a swim Showers are usually located near the pool entrance for convenience Visitors are required to rinse off before entering the pool Adherence to this rule keeps the pool clean and clear for everyone While lifeguards are on duty, it is the responsibility of parents to keep an eye on children playing in and around the pool Pool toys are allowed in German pools, but older children should be courteous of young ones playing in the water� Following safety and etiquette guidelines at the pool makes the experience better for everyone� By properly preparing for time in the pool, parents and children can keep cool all summer long

One of the last things anyone wants to do in the summer is cook big, heavy and complicated meals. It’s hot, it’s humid, and what you really want is to relax. If you’re tired of the usual barbecue fare and need some lighter menu ideas, look no further.
This refreshing salsa is a nice variation of the traditional version, with a little extra kick!
Start to finish: 10 minutes
Servings: 8
• 2 pineapples
• 4 teaspoons ginger, grated
• 4 green onions, thinly sliced
• Juice of 2 limes
• 2 small red onions, finely diced
• 1/2 to 1 habanero chili, minced (depending on what kind of heat you want)
• Splash canola oil
• Kosher salt
• Black pepper, freshly ground
• Corn tortilla or plantain chips, for serving
• Slice the pineapples and grill or roast until just tender. Dice the cooked pineapple.
• Toss the pineapple, ginger, green onions, lime juice, red onions, chili and oil in a large bowl.
• Season with salt and pepper. Serve with tortilla or plantain chips.
Recipe from www.FoodNetwork.com
Quinoa with Corn, Tomatoes, Avocado and Lime
Quinoa, pronounced keen-wah, is a high-protein seed that has a fluffy, slightly crunchy texture. You can make this salad a day ahead of time, just be sure to add the avocado at the last minute to avoid discoloring.
Start to finish: 45 minutes
Servings: 4
• 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided in half
• 1/2 cup yellow onion from 1 small onion, chopped
• 1 cup pre-washed quinoa
• 1 2/3 cups vegetable broth, low sodium
• 1 teaspoon salt, divided in half
• 1 cup tomatoes from 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
• 1 1/4 cup fresh cut corn from 2 cobs, cooked
Grilled Watermelon Salad
Grilled Watermelon? In a salad?
It’s different, but it is worth it. Guaranteed to be one of the most refreshing salads you’ll have this summer.
Start to finish: 15 minutes
Servings: 4
• 1/2 seedless watermelon
• 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
• Extra-virgin olive oil
• Kosher salt
• 2 cups baby arugula, washed and dried
• 1 cup goat cheese, crumbled or Mozarella
• Black pepper, finely cracked
• Stand the watermelon half cut side down on a cutting board and slice away the rind, leaving a solid block of melon. Turn the block on its side and cut it into 8 squares, roughly 3 by 3 inches and 1-inch thick.
• Pour the vinegar into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook until reduced to a thick syrup consistency. Set aside.
• Heat a nonstick grill pan over
medium-high heat. Drizzle just enough olive oil over watermelon slices to thinly coat and place on hot grill pan. Grill each side for about 2 minutes until grill marks appear. Transfer to a plate and season with salt.
• To assemble the individual servings of salad, put about 1/4 cup of baby arugula on a small plate, followed by a grilled slice of watermelon in the center and top with a tablespoon of crumbled cheese and another 1/4 cup arugula. Add another watermelon slice and another tablespoon of cheese. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
• Finish each salad with a very light drizzle of olive oil and balsamic syrup. Dust with black pepper and serve immediately.
Recipe from www.FoodNetwork.com
• 2 scallions, white and green parts, finely sliced
• 1 small jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
• 1/3 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
• 2 tablespoons lime juice from 1 large lime
• 1 avocado, cut into bite-sized chunks
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium saucepan over mediumlow heat. Add onions and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Add quinoa to onions and continue cooking, stirring constantly, for 3 to 4 minutes. Add vegetable broth and stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt. Turn heat up to high and bring to a boil.
• Cover pan tightly with lid, turn heat down to low and simmer for 17 to 20 minutes, until liquid is absorbed and quinoa is cooked. Transfer cooked quinoa to mixing bowl and chill in refrigerator.
• When quinoa is cool, add remaining tablespoon of olive oil, tomatoes, corn, scallions, jalapeno, cilantro, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and lime juice. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
• Right before serving, scatter avocado chunks over top.
Recipe from www.SeriousEats.com

When my friends and I decided to go on vacation together, Croatia was not on their radar. Having heard such wonderful things from my co-workers I did my best to sell my friends on the destination. When words alone didn’t seem enough, I told them to simply search for images on the Internet. Less than a minute later I had two emphatic “YES” text messages.
Amember of the EU since 2013, Croatia is one of those forgotten countries Geographically located on the Adriatic Sea, east of Italy, the country is situated between Slovenia and Bosnia-Herzegovina Weather patterns vary depending on location within the country itself but Pula’s location on the Istria peninsula typically has a climate consisting of hot, dry, and sunny summers (think 80 to 90 F) and relatively mild, at times wet, winters With crystal clear waters and a history dating back more than 3,000 years, my friends and I were incredibly excited to see
what the city had to offer Luckily, we had some help from my co-workers
Traveling Basics
Baumholder Middle High School
Teacher Michele Dube went to Croatia with her family and two other families over spring break She chose Pula, “because it was recommended and we wanted to go somewhere that would be warmer than Germany ”
She and the rest of her group soon discovered how inexpensive the cost of the trip would be Airfare flying from Frankfurt
Hahn with a low-cost carrier was less than 150 Euro per person, round trip
If Frankfurt International Airport is geographically closer for you, you can also opt to fly out of Frankfurt International Airport to Pula One downfall is tickets out of Frankfurt are significantly higher in cost
One can expect a little bit of a jump in price since the summer time is Croatia’s busiest and most popular time of year for tourists�
Typically the next step in traveling is finding accommodation All the families I spoke to stayed in a rental apartment, found on sites like www airbnb com or www vrbo com, etc If you’re not familiar with such sites, be sure to check out their offers More often than not, they are cheaper than hotels and can save a good deal of money� Additionally, when looking for rentals try to be flexible Although most of us want to stay directly in the center of a major city, flexibility has its perks Michele explains: “We stayed in the Stoja area of the city, which is about two kilometers from the center of town Our apartment was 100 meters from the beach!”
If you’d prefer the traditional hotel, those are definitely available Sites
like www booking com will show a large range of prices depending on how many stars you would like your hotel to have Personally, I always recommend three stars and above
The next thing to think about is how will you get around? It should be noted there is no major public transportation system in Pula, so renting a car should be included in your budget
There are several ways to book a rental car Some websites allow you to book your flight, along with your rental car all at once�
So, you’ve figured out the travel portion, now it’s time to decide where to go and what to do!
Pula is known for its first-century Roman amphitheater This 20,000-seat amphitheater, smack in the heart of the city, is one of the best preserved in the world In the summer it serves as a venue for concerts and festivals�
The Istrian port city sits just three kilometers from two main pine-covered islands and 12 islets that make up the Brijuni archipelago
Joanna and Michele took the boat ride to Brijuni National park on the largest of the islands, Veli Brijun Both agree it was one of the highlights of their trip The boat ride to the island also includes a train ride around it, offering interesting views of the island
The sightseeing package offers visitors a chance to see the remains of the first century B�C� Roman villa rustica, a visit to the Church of St Germain, as well as a tour through the safari park that includes zebras, llamas and elephants Prices vary depending on season and for children depending on age� The beach is always an option in the summer There are five popular beaches to visit in Pula: Valkane, Kamenjak Premantura, Histria, Ambrela, and Gortanova Uvala beach Most of the beaches are sandy but visitors should be prepared for a few areas with rocks as most of the coast is made up of flat rocks
One of the last “must do” items on the list is the Zerostrasse An underground system of tunnels built before and during WWI, it was used as a place to store ammunition and provide shelter�
Take the time to enjoy the food! Pula is known for its focus on Mediterranean food
“We ate a lot of seafood because it was inexpensive and fresh,” Joanna said They also loved that there were “plenty of places to eat by the water to watch a beautiful sunset all for a very affordable price ” Indeed, the food is a strong selling point� Similar to that which you would find in Italy, Pula has it’s own olive oils and wines but for much less than you would find just across the Adriatic
Pula is small but that is part of its charm If you’re planning to spend longer than a few days, you may want to add a few other travel destinations within Croatia to your itinerary�
Michele says: “Since we were there for a week, we had time to go beyond the city We did take the time to visit some of the local wine villages and took the kids go-carting�”
Too good to be true?
It may seem like Pula is one of those places you simply “hear” about but don’t actually believe the hype I can assure you, the hype is accurate It is definitely a place to visit
Michele strongly suggests considering Croatia for your next vacation
“Pula has something for everyone The costs while there are pretty low and the people are very friendly It was easy to get around, traffic is not too congested, and the city is extremely clean ”
So….what are you waiting for?

Heidelberg Castle is one of Germany’s iconic destinations –for good reason. The main gate is breathtaking. The interior architecture is magnificent. It sits high on a hill above Heidelberg and the Neckar River and is packed with history.
If you’ve never visited, you should If you’ve already been, here are six more reasons to entice you to go again Because even though Heidelberg Castle is one of Germany’s most popular tourist destinations, it still contains plenty of mystery!
If you’re into medieval exercise, then the walk from the city center to the castle can be fun Visitors work their way up a concrete path that goes straight up the hill — none of this newfangled constant switchback stuff Which means that, by the time you finish covering the 260-foot vertical distance, you’ll be breathing like a knight dressed in chain mail
A less sweaty option involves taking the funicular railway from the Kornmarkt to the Castle It’s fun, easy, and riders can also buy a ticket that includes castle admission As a bonus, you can shake your head at the struggling walkers below�
You may have heard of the Heidelberg Tun, which was built in 1751 and which looks like something called a Tun would look� It is a massive, 58,000-gallon, wooden wine vat that hasn’t held as much wine as one might think (because, honestly, lugging that much wine up an 18th century hill would have been very difficult)
Yet, the Tun is a must-see In its way, it is a marvel of human ingenuity And it makes the mind wander to all sorts of unexpected places As in, how was this Tun the third one that the medieval royals built, and why did they think the first two (both of which were also massive) were too small?
It is true that, prior to the 20th century, water was more dangerous than wine or beer (think cholera and a lack of motorized vehicles)� Still, one has to feel sorry for poor Perkeo, an 18th-century court jester for Prince-Elector Carl Philipp von der Pfalz According to legend, Perkeo was an expert wine drinker who could, ahem, polish off thousands of liters of wine without problem And so it was, then, that drinking a cup of water supposedly did him in No one is quite sure what exactly happened, but it is certain that the prankster was missed by the PrinceElector and his hangers-on No one is sure, either, whether the ghost of Perkeo is still haunting the Tun…
There are protected animals that make their homes in the Castle Bats love it, including the tiny pipistrelle bat, as well as the large mouse-eared bat� If you’re lucky, you can also spot European toads, Alpine newts, and fire salamanders
Heidelberg Castle also contains an Paleozoic-era rock outcropping, known as a geotope, that geology buffs rave about Toss in beautiful trees, manicured gardens and other greenery, and the castle starts to feel even more magical
We’re talking plays, musicals, concerts, illuminations, artisans, food, and drinks! And, of course, all of it is set in one of the most beautiful locations in the world� As a bonus, the fun lasts for most of June and July
So if you’re thinking about a summer visit, do a little research in advance� Being festive at the Heidelberg Castle Festival is an unforgettable experience
Okay, the logic here is admittedly shaky, but it’s based on the fact that lightning has already struck the castle… twice The two most famous lightning strikes — in the 16th and 18th centuries, respectively — did a lot of damage: both of them led to fires and the subsequent destruction of many structures�
The castle was rebuilt both times, of course And those efforts led, in part, to the incredible place that is so famous today!
By car, Heidelberg is an hour from Kaiserslautern, an hour from Wiesbaden, and 1.5 hours from Stuttgart. Please check the Deutsche Bahn website for train details.

Garmisch-Partenkirchen is a beautiful place to visit, located right at the foot of the Alps. Garmisch and Partenkirchen used to be two separate places, but were merged for the 1936 Winter Olympics. It may be a five-hour drive from Ramstein, but it is definitely worth the drive with places to stop and stretch your legs along the way as you admire the beautiful scenery.
During the summer months in Garmisch, the climate is perfect for outdoor activities for anyone who loves nature Hikers can explore countless miles of walks and leisurely hikes around the amazing alpine lakes and there are many great trails for families The Alpine mountains are truly a breathtaking place to spend some time and enjoy nature�
Neuschwanstein Castle
Neuschwanstein Castle is without a doubt a “must do” before, during or after a trip to Garmisch� The castle is found in the Alps and the view is worth seeing When taking a trip to the castle, be sure to get there as early as possible if you want to take a tour of the inside
You will need to make sure you purchase a ticket from the ticket office located at the foot of the castle The walk up to the castle is about 30 to 40 minutes — if you don’t fancy the walk, or if you’re seeking a more romantic approach, there is a horse and carriage that will take you to and from the castle When walking up the winding road, there are some great photo opportunities by the waterfall and streams that run down the mountain Once you reach the top, there is a magnificent panoramic view
This magical castle was the inspiration for the Disney castle and was once home to King Ludwig
For more information and for tickets, visit http://www.neuschwanstein.de/englisch/ tourist/.
Edelweiss Resort
There are many great places to stay in Garmisch but the Edelweiss Lodge and Resort is one of the best It is available to Department of Defense ID cardholders, retirees and dependents� This lodge not only has great room prices, it also offers its guests a number of things to do
At the end of a long day, spend time in the resort’s wellness club which includes a gym, indoor heated pool, outdoor hot tub, wet and dry saunas, massage therapy and a refreshing juice bar Not only do guests have unlimited access during their stay to the wellness club, but they also have access to some great restaurants
The resort has countless summer outdoor activities and tours where you can pick up information from their gift store or at the front desk Be sure to ask about the Partnach Gorge tour, biking and hiking adventures, indoor rock climbing, water sports and paragliding

Are you easily bored during your holidays? Need that bit of extra entertainment? How about a place where four countries meet? How about a place where you can go swimming, diving, sailing, climbing, hiking, bird watching, skiing, golfing, sightseeing, wellnessing? How about a place of records — the biggest lake, the most castles, the greatest fun? Then you are in for Lake Constance, the “Bodensee,” as it is called in German.
Lovers of history, architecture, all types of sports, those with family and those who seek quietude all get what they are looking for at this truly international lake with shores in Austria, Germany, Liechtenstein and Switzerland One who knows best what to do and where to go is Markus Böhm� He works for the International Bodensee Tourismus GmbH (www bodensee eu)� Here are his top recommendations:
“What comes to mind first is Mainau Island,” Böhm said about one of the top attractions at Lake Constance “It’s a flower paradise with a tropical greenhouse and a botanical park overlooking the lake ”
Another major attraction is the Zeppelin Museum in Friedrichshafen
“They partially rebuilt the LZ 129 Hindenburg, a 245 meter aircraft, and you can actually enter it,” he said
The Pfänder Mountain (1064 meters) is the most famous point of the region and offers a unique view of Lake Constance and its four countries
“It can either be climbed or
you take the Pfänder railway from Bregenz,” Böhm said
The archeological Museum Unteruhldingen represents one of the cultural highlights of the region It is one of the largest open-air museums in Europe The reconstructed pile dwellings show the history of early farmers and traders of the Stone Age� It is also a Unesco World Heritage site, Böhm said
“For those who love music, the Bregenzer Festspiele is a must,” Böhm said “To see great artists perform on the floating stage is a real experience!”
This stage offers seats for 7,000 visitors The Bregenz Festival is a performing arts festival held annually between July and August in the Austrian town of Bregenz For families, it’s the monkey mountain of Salem�
“They have got some 200 Barbary apes living there under almost nature like conditions, sharing the area with fallow deer,” Böhm said “It’s the biggest outdoor enclosure of Germany ”
Signs, interactive shows and hosted feeds teach visitors about
the animals�
And another suggestion Böhm just had to point out: The castle of Meersburg is the oldest inhabited castle in Germany — absolutely worth a visit
Indeed, Air Force spouse Casey Coté, who lived and traveled in Germany, confirms it’s worth a visit�
“The view of Meersburg from the ferry as it pulls away from the shore is stunning,” she writes in her travel blog “We Took the Road Less Traveled” (www wetooktheroadlesstraveled�com)� “The colorful wood-timbered houses up against the teal blue lake is like nothing I’ve ever seen before It’s so unexpected to have such a tropical, beachy type place bordering Germany, Austria and Switzerland Like something out of a storybook, for sure!”
But our ultimate suggestion is to take the Lake Constance ferries — be it for a short ride or a day trip — and experience some of the 1,000 options, because whatever your choice may be, it can’t be wrong “Lake Constance was an absolute dream,” Coté said
Planes, trains and automobiles: If you plan to travel with children this summer, getting from here to there can be parental torture. DVD players and video games are nice but some vacations require thinking outside the electric black box.
If you’re traveling by car, consider a few solutions for cranky backseat passengers (many of these methods can be used with other modes of travel as well)
The ‘Picking Bag’
Take a “Picking Bag” to reward good behavior� Stop at
length of your trip and be generous in your rewards From seatbelts to trash duty, the “Picking Bag” will keep everybody guessing in a good way
Family songs
Pull out a playlist of family songs Have each member contribute a dozen of their personal favorite songs then use the opportunity to pull the ear buds out of your child’s ears and engage them in some family memories This is also a great opportunity to introduce your kids to Neil Diamond
Spending money
Give each of your children some euro change to spend at gas stations and villages along the way When they misbehave, take a coin� For exemplary behavior, pay it back That way, they have a monetary motivator to be kind and obedient�
Travel trivia
Sometimes, winding European roads lead to carsick passengers
Remember to ask your pediatrician about Dramamine for children who get sick or have trouble sleeping in the car
Get out of the car, onto a train
If you’d like to use the trains this summer, don’t be daunted by the vast amount of tracks running through Germany Take some time to get familiar with the German train website, www�bahn�de� It’s a nice change of pace from a cramped car
One of the easiest ways to travel as a group this summer is with the DB Bahn’s “Lander-Tickets ”
Sometimes the best deals are airborne Even if you’re not heading back to the states for a summer visit, low-cost airlines offer cheap flights for the entire family
Flying with kids can be an anxiety riddled ride if you aren’t prepared for the bumps Remember to stock up on treats to help with air pressure� Suckers or gum at take off and landing can help with popping in the ears
your local Tedi or Kik and stock up on cheap toys and treats Age does not matter for this good behavior motivator Whether it’s a $5 iTunes card or a Blow Pop, the mystery of the “Picking Bag” can lure even the crankiest child or teen� Fill it up depending on the
Print off a list of age appropriate trivia questions for your brood Whether your family is young or old, simple games like these can redirect clashing siblings and help build family unity Pick the right treat and your children will be falling over themselves for the grand prize�
Starting at €26 in RheinlandPfalz, this ticket allows a group of up to five people unlimited travel for a single day This ticket is available for all states and varies a little in price� Check www�bahn� de/angebot/regio/laender_tickets for details You can choose the day and choose the region� It is valid on all local trains This is a great option for families wishing to focus on one area, like the Rhine River There are cheap weekend group tickets for up to six travelers available as well See your local train station or visit the website for more information�
If you’re flying locally, beverages aren’t allowed through security so stock up on drinks before boarding� They are not complimentary (or cheap) but there’s nothing worse than thirsty kids or babies
If you’re concerned about noisy children bothering others in-flight or not finding seats together as a family, head to the back of the plane� The white noise will cover most of your family noises and most passengers prefer to sit toward the front anyway
However you choose to travel this summer, just remember that kids will be kids There’s nothing better than good behavior Taking the time to plan ahead can help everyone relax a little more and enjoy the ride�

Nancy is almost the perfect spot to spend a long weekend. It offers everything you would expect from a French city: culture, amazing food, a fun nightlife, family-friendly activities, green space, historical significance and stunning architecture. Even better, it’s just a quick trip from Germany – and one that doesn’t involve Paris traffic!
So after you’ve found a place to stay (preferably in or near the city center), here are four great ways to enjoy your time in Nancy (pronounced non-see)
This gorgeous, pedestrian-only space will inspire awe in even the most jaded Euro traveler Hands-down one of the most beautiful architectural creations in France, Place Stanislas contains a large square and a series of magnificent 18th century buildings (that are breathtaking at night when illuminated)� Even better, Place Stanislas is more than just a tourist destination Locals are there, too — in cafés, in conversations, and in constant motion
It’s also a tribute to Europe’s complicated history Originally conceived as a monument to King Louis XV, it was built between 1752 and 1755 At the time, Louis XV’s father-in-law was a recently deposed Polish king named Stanislas who had been
named the Duke of Lorraine as a consolation prize for losing his crown� When the French Revolution came and kings fell out of favor for good in the early 19th century, the place was named after Stanislas�
Walk
Nancy’s city center is a gem, and it has something for everyone Looking for a place to eat or drink? You’ll find street food, brasseries, coffee shops, wine bars, high-end restaurants, creperies, and candy stores You can also, of course, find a spot to try Quiche Lorraine in Lorraine
Nancy has shopping, too Visitors will find chic boutiques and artisan stores on the same streets as chain stores Look for chances, too, to come home with regional specialties Lorraine does really well when it comes to meats, cheeses, wines, and candies
And no visit to the city would be complete without a trip to the beautiful Parc de la Pepinière This central park is excellent dur-
ing any season But it’s like a paradise during summer, and offers fun for the whole family — including mini golf, ice cream vendors, and a small zoo
Visit a museum
Sometimes, museums can be overwhelming Fortunately, Nancy has a number of excellent, easy-to-navigate museums that will maximize your enjoyment without wiping you out completely
The Museum of Fine Arts (€10 during high season, €7 otherwise) is a great place to start Open 10 a m to 6 p m nearly every day, it boasts artwork from a number of heavy hitters, including Picasso, Manet and Rubens Another great choice — and one that draws on Nancy’s position as one of the most “Art Nouveau” cities in France — is the Art Nouveau museum (open Wednesday through Sunday, 10 a m to 6 p m , €7 for an adult ticket)
Nancy also has an aquarium that offers
workshops for children, light/sound shows, and — of course — plenty of cool aquatic life The Museum Aquarium is open TuesdaySunday Adult tickets cost €5 50
Markets and the Nancy Thermal Nancy has a beautiful variety of markets, including a once-a-month flea market The Nancy Central Market offers a covered shopping experience, more than 60 booths, stalls, and shops, as well as an immersion into bustling everyday life
Visitors can also enjoy some pool time while in Nancy The Nancy Thermal is a large aquatic park with pools, slides, water works and a spa� It’s just right during a long, hot summer day — or a short, cold autumn day!

If you are new to the KMC and have your dog(s) with you, depending on where you live you may not have a chance to let your dog run loose, or know great places in the surrounding area to do so. We will give you some options to keep you and your four-legged friend moving this summer.
Living in an apartment downtown or on-base/ post housing sometimes restricts you to a quick daily walk with your dog before and after work or on weekends Don’t let this prevent you from getting out and trying something new and exciting while spending quality time with your dog as well as the entire family
There are hundreds of kilometers of trails to trek with your dog
that either start where you live or are just a short drive away In this article, I want to focus on Nordic Walking trails where you can take the pup with you, and let you to get back in shape for outdoor terrain after spending a lot of time either sitting by the fire or using indoor equipment The trails also have stops offering food and beverages and water for your dog, just in case you run out along the way
The Pfaelzer Bergland Nordic Walking trails are posted with signs at the start points with information including routes, distance, difficulty level and points of interest, including rest stops offering snacks They all have three or four main routes� These trails surround the KMC, Baumholder, and Sembach, are just a short distance away and are dog-friendly
Nature Fitness Park
Waldmohr routes include the Hoehenweg, an 8 2 km-long, partly-paved trail; Glanaue, an 8 kmlong trail; and the family-friendly 10 7 km-long Mohrmühlweg, half of which is paved� They interconnect and have varied terrain with a medium difficulty rating
Nature Fitness Park
Ohmbachsee routes include the Ohmbachsee Tour, a 4 4 km-long tour with an easy difficulty rating; the 6�6 km-long Ziegelberg Tour, with mostly paved trails; and the Loewenberg Tour, a 9 7 km-long trail, both with medium difficulty ratings
Nature Fitness Park
Baumholder has a 4 6 kmlong easy-rated route called Am Bruderbach This trail can be a bit more of a challenge during early spring due to very slippery terrain
Also around Baumholder are the 8 1 km-long Foersterrunde, 11 9 km-long Muehlenweg, and 12 4 km-long Zum Wildfrauenloch All three have medium ratings, however, since most of the trails are not paved, they can be very slippery in early spring�
Nature Fitness Park Burg
Lichtenberg also has three routes
Kleine Burgtour is the shortest of the three routes with a mostly paved 5 km distance; Grosse Burgtour is a 9 km tour on mostly paved underground, and the Roemertour takes you just a bit further with a length of 11 4 km This is one of my favorite parks because they are all near Lichtenberg Castle The castle offers various small museums and a restaurant, making it a perfect stop� All routes have a medium rating
What makes all of these trails great is that they are Rundwege, “round trails,” which have the same start and finish point, and have directional signs on trees or wooden posts so you can turn around and find your way back to the car easily if necessary The views are amazing and the trails are well maintained�
During spring expect trails that are damp, sometimes muddy and slippery because of tree roots and the remains of leaves and moss from the fall Depending on the elevation
there can still be snow and ice in certain areas Be prepared by checking weather conditions before you leave and letting others know where you are going� Ensure your safety by wearing sturdy water-resistant footwear, dressing in layers, and having a backpack with extra supplies such as water, food, snacks for everyone including the pup, first aid kit, and a phone for emergencies
While taking your dog along, make sure to keep a few things in mind when it comes to the dos and don’ts of dog etiquette Everywhere I go there are German hikers with dogs, and dogs are allowed to run off the trail to do their business, mark their territory on a tree, or just romp around and have fun However, when another hiker (with or without a dog) approaches, the dog is called back to its owner’s side until you pass by This is done for your and the dog’s safety and also applies to oncoming cyclists
Ensure you always bring a leash while hiking If you are not sure how your dog will respond to seeing strangers or your verbal commands, leash your dog in advance to avoid a bad situation Also, be sure to lead them off the trail to relieve themselves when necessary to prevent fellow hikers from having to navigate around, or accidentally end up with shoes and poles that need a little extra clean up at the end of the day
Cleaning up after your dog is a common courtesy ensuring we all end our day on a good note Cleaning up after them is especially important if your hike takes you through a public park, playground, or resting areas
Local community offices have gloves and bags that are free of charge, and in many areas, they are supplied for free in dispensers along the way with signs attached
The German Department of Public Order and local community administration offices have a danger prevention ordinance outlining your responsibilities while walking your dogs in different areas This ordinance states that the owners must keep their dogs on a leash while walking them on public streets, and in housing areas�
In all other areas such as hiking trails and through the forest, dogs must be automatically put on a leash or otherwise controlled when other people approach Violators may be punished with fines up to several thousands of dollars depending on the circumstance� They can also face paying medical bills and property damage costs due to an out of control dog�
It is also important to know that if you plan on taking your dog out for a walk that requires car travel, Germany’s law requires dogs in cars should be safely secured in either a
kennel or other restraining devices such as a seatbelt or safety net This not only protects your dog but prevents unexpected driver distractions that could result in traffic accidents You can obtain hiking maps from the tourist offices all over
the KMC including the Window to Rheinland-Pfalz information kiosk located in the KMCC Mall Alternatively, search for a route online at www outdooractive com
