GIG
CUN
PTY
HNL
thx, Done CUN twice (in Jan when weather is perfect). and afraid about hurricanes/rain in CUN and Panama (lmk if u think thats not such an issue)
I think i really need to consider GIG (rio) and HNL. Scared of HNL bc once im shlepping to the islands i want to do all the big hikes and i cant with my lil kids, but maybe doing a chill at a top level resort will be worth it. thanks

+1 to greece
@yehuda and @Mordyk thx this is a consideration too. BH (and @Dan) for the well fortified threads and trip reports on greece, panama etc, learning a lot!

Too rushed IMHO, but you could if you want to.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Summer vacation with small kids.

Vancouver - banff or San Diego/LA?
Did both with kids. Vancouver-Banff lots of driving and less kid friendly.

Early June!

Iceland isn't cold at that time of year. I went one year in May and it was beautiful.

Boston or Vermont would work really well.
