A rec for a certain kind of chill vacation. We enrolled our kids in a camp that it'd be tough for them to do where we live (sailing camp!) for just a one week session. We booked an Airbnb walking distance from camp drop off and got 3 hours to ourselves to do things the kids would not enjoy (vintage shopping, art galleries, long walks). They made friends! We ran into their instructors around town! They loved learning to sail little boats! A huge win win imo. This year was a "pilot" - we're considering a full day camp, extending our vacation and working remote while they're at camp.

It's brilliant! We generally spend a big chunk of the summer in LA and always sign up for summer camp for half the time so we can hang out with friends/work remotely, but then we have the rest of the time as a family vacation. Everyone has fun, including/especially our kiddo, who gets to hang with friends old and new all day and just relax.
