I have 2.5 year old son and 2 and half weeks to take off work before the end of March, and my husband is desperate to go somewhere adventurous. I feel that my sense of adventure has decreased somewhat since being a mum of a small child and we are also trying for a number 2 (though having been trying for some time) so my ideal holiday would be less adventurous than my husband. We both used to be quite adventurous before children.
First Malaysia was discussed, however jet lag, the fact I do not sleep on planes, humidity, mosquitoes bitten, hot toddler who is not potty train and still puts what ever he finds in his month has put me off the idea somewhat. Am I being over worried has anyone been with a toddler and had bad times? Good times?
So South Africa was a compromise, flying in to Cape Town and then heading up the West coast, rather than the East. But my husband wants to do it in a camper van, and I am worry about safety Again has anyone done this with a toddler?
There Is also a small chance I could get pregnant so will have to deal with that too, but feel we cannot plan around this chance as we are having some problem conceiving and my husband sees this trip as a chance to get away before number 2, my heart agrees with him but my head worries.
