I'm a NC regularly. I feel this is a skiing AIBU post really, so want to keep it anon.
I have 2 very easy older dc who will ski with us or in ski school. We manage peak time holidays on a budget every year as we choose modest accommodation and book independently, without child care.
I've agreed to ski with a sibling and their huge blended family. Various ages, various needs. They Usual stay at catered chalets. And They'll need a crèche.
We just cannot afford this ( or should I say refuse to pay hard earned cash for it, as we spend half their usual budget!)
I am concerned that now we have agreed to holiday with them, that we will have to pay twice our usual budget in order to be together, due to their more complex needs.
AIBU to feel annoyed by this?
Should I suggest we find a cheaper accommodation in the same resort as them?
I know that their dc in particular would be upset about this, but we just never spend 4k on a skiing holiday!
Any advice / budget ideas welcome ( family resort with good crèche facility and good skiing for high intermediates). Tia!
