Last summer as we collapsed in a heap after a long journey home from Greece, slightly (alot) hungover with two tired kids, we discussed the benefits of holidaying on the homeland in 2019, and declared we were kinda glad to not have to face a flight with kids for a few years. more “Muddling in America”

As many people have observed throughout history, it’s really difficult to imagine ever having “too much money.”
