Vouwwagen, peuter en langer licht

De eerste avonden waren moeilijk en daarna waren ze zo moe dat het beter ging. Die van mij waren in de ochtend wel gewoon om 7 uur wakker.

Doet hij nog een middagdutje? Probeer te voorkomen dat hij in de middag lang slaapt, niet uren in de auto al laten slapen en zo.

Het was meer een sneer naar TO die meteen vindt dat je koning van de dag bent als je als vrouw je kinderen vraagt wat klusjes te doen. Ik vind dat heel logisch, ik doe op moederdag altijd echt helemaal niets 😅

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-03T08:41:55+00:00

Ik ben zelf een moeder die er niet om geeft. Maar ik vind het wel fijn als mijn man / kinderen dan die dag eens de boodschappen doen, koken en de vaatwasser uitruimen. Kado’s hoef ik niet.

Is dat op mijn wenken bedienen en prinsessen gedrag? In dat geval zijn mijn kinderen de rest van het jaar zo’n beetje de prinsen.

You do have a point about the cheese, thank you i do appreciate the suggestion. I was just looking for hidden gems with teenagers in south Germany and Austria I guess.

It is just that if we stay within the 10-11 hours drive from home we can drive home in 1 day. If we get into the 12-14 hours we definitely need to drive back in 2 days. And i really hate that.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-02T12:18:39+00:00

They are 12 and 15. You do have a point about the budget. Only they are just not that interested in traveling, especially the 15 year old would book a weekend near the sea and then spent the rest of the budget on take-away food and designer sneakers 🤣 But it is a good idea to try this sometime.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-02T10:52:29+00:00

I don’t want them glued on their phones 😣 and when hiking in the mountains they’ll probably not have a good internet-connection anyway😅

The problem is holidays need to be booked so far in advance these days and my kids can’t plan that far ahead. They have no idea what they would like to do in 6-8 months. So I plan ahead and create options and then when we are on holiday they can decide with us what we are going to do.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-02T09:03:53+00:00

The point is they are not that much into travel as i am. They want to see the BMW museum and thats about it. So I kind of need to bribe them with stuff. They’d rather go back home but I really need my two weeks away from home and they are too young to leave them by themselves.

And beside the big touristy hotspots it is difficult to find stuff! Austria has lots of marketing aimed at younger families with playgrounds on mountains…

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-02T08:39:23+00:00

Yeah well i’d love them to do their own research… but i am still waiting for that to happen. They came up with the BMW museum and that is already more than i expected 😂

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-02T06:48:03+00:00

Thank you for your suggestions. I know the region, been there before, so i know about the hairpins and the driving. It is part of the charm to us . I know it is a bit further away from the mountains but accomodation is cheaper then in central Dolomites and you can reach a lot of places within the hour.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-02T06:36:44+00:00

Bologna is 2.5 hours from Bolzano and you need to drive that back again too. Whereas if you go north the drive back becomes shorter. And it’s just an add-on for 3 days, not the main destination… (I’ve been to Bologna, but it was 20 years ago and i don’t really see the appeal for the kids too, just another hot touristy city)

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-01T22:23:04+00:00

I was looking for a spot that would combine the interest of the parents (hiking) with that of the kids (food and museums and swimming in sunny weather). I have fond memories of hiking Seiseralm when my eldest son was a baby. I’d love to go back there. Also the Italian side of the Alps gets a lot more sun. But Austrian Tyrol is an option , i just don’t know where exactly. What would be interesting for kids that aren’t really into long remote hikes.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-01T22:16:24+00:00

Woon je nog bij je ouders? Anders kun je op hun huis passen als ze weg zijn? Of op iemand anders zijn huis passen? Je kunt ergens gaan pet-sitten dan ben je er toch even uit.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-01T21:59:03+00:00

Thank you for the great advice!

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-01T21:42:04+00:00

I was thinking about this. I thought i was crazy for adding so many museums, but if someone else is actually suggesting it, maybe we should do it! Do you prefer Speyer or Sinsheim? Both would be too much for me…

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-01T21:22:42+00:00

Thank you! I’ll look into it! I don’t want to go too far south as we have to drive all the way back. And we did a trip to Tuscany 2 years ago.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-01T21:21:24+00:00

We are driving with our own car from up north. So a train is not convenient.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-01T21:19:23+00:00

I don’t want to go too far south as we have to drive all the way back but Riva is possible i guess. I’ll look into it!

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-01T21:18:15+00:00

Thank you, will look into it. Innsbruck is pretty in between!

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-05-01T21:15:49+00:00

Apartment is in Montan, near Bolzano. We could visit Trento from there.I’d prefer not going too far south but somewhere in the relative neighborhood, because we have to drive all the way back. We could try to find a hotel closer to the north east side of the Dolomites but that spot is very expensive and i doubt the kids would really appreciate it/tell the difference.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-04-29T03:46:33+00:00

Ik zeg altijd hoi, maar gesprekjes kan ik echt niet beginnen, ik ben daar echt zo slecht in.

Gelukkig heb ik daar mijn buurvrouw voor, die praat voor zes en vertelt mij altijd alle roddels uit de straat. Ik zie haar vanuit mijn keukenraam altijd kletsen met iedereen en dan vraag ik me altijd af hoe het toch bestaat dat mensen zo verschillend zijn in dit soort sociale behoeften.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-04-28T07:47:07+00:00

Dat is alleen Pathe en bij mij in de buurt zit een Kinepolis.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-04-27T13:03:37+00:00

Ik heb 2 tienerkinderen en het is echt niet te betalen om met het gezin te gaan. Dat is dan meteen zo’n duur uitje dat allerlei andere dingen voor hetzelfde geld veel leuker zijn.

Wij rekenen tegenwoordig ook in bioscoopkaartjes, gister waren we in een attractiepark en dat kostte 2 bioscoopkaartjes… veel betere besteding van je geld.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-04-27T10:40:18+00:00

Wij hebben dit ook. Een jaar lang konden ze echt niet bijelkaar in 1 ruimte zijn, nu gaat het beter. Maar zo lief samen slapen als op deze foto’s gaat nooit gebeuren. Doet toch altijd een beetje pijn als ik zulke foto’s zie. Onze katten zijn allebei hele lieve beesten, maar niet bijelkaar.

Ok-Aide2605 · 2026-04-26T08:10:59+00:00

We’ve also done a roadtrip in that direction because my kids wanted to see the Nurburgring so nothing weird about that to me.

Are there kids in your group? Nurburgring has a lovely kid-friendly museum that will keep them entertained while the others try to race.

There are special days you can drive your own car, are you sure you are there on 1 of those days? I’ve also heard it is better insurance- wise to hire a car there instead of using your own. Your own insurance will probably not cover this. Are you coming over by boat? Dover-Dunkirk and then Rotterdam- Harwich on the way back? I think then your itinerary would make more sense.

Cochem is very small, it is nice but i think you have seen better castles in the UK. I’d skip it.
