Episode #151: Fresh off the whirlwind of a 16-day spring break adventure with my kids, I've emerged with a treasure trove of travel insights that promise to transform your family vacation experiences. Picture this: a last-minute decision to head to the JW Marriott Desert Springs in Phoenix, a hotel that came highly recommended by a friend. In navigating the chaos of high-season travel and family logistics, I've discovered that sometimes, cutting a trip short can actually enhance the joy and leave everyone wanting more. My years of globetrotting as a management consultant have truly shaped my approach to making family travel less about stress and more about seamless fun. Our stay at the luxury hotel was a blend of opulence and a few quirky setbacks. Imagine arriving at a vast multi-wing property, only to be greeted by the scent of smoke and a missing concierge. Yet, the allure of an upgraded suite and the joy it brought to my family of five quickly overshadowed these hiccups. With a lazy river and several pools, the hotel was a haven for our kids, even as we tackled the challenges of managing a toddler who needed floaties. From mastering the art of carrying large rafts on water slides to embracing the minor logistics of kid-friendly travel, there was plenty of fun to be had and stories to share. This episode is more than just tales of poolside escapades. Join me as I recount memorable moments like a spontaneous airport lounge upgrade and a kind stranger's compliment that moved me to tears. From unexpected adventures with a double ear infection to humorous encounters in airport lounges, this trip was a tapestry of family fun and learning. As we wrap up, I'm thrilled to introduce new segments focused on delivering consistent and engaging content, and I'm incredibly grateful for your support on this journey.

Additionally, Jess thought the man at the bar with the white beard was Santa. We talked about Santa for our Pop Culture reference on our podcast in S2 E11 - Santa.Annie - When Jess is pleading with Barry for plane tickets, Barry says he sarcastically says, “Oh, I didn't know that [it was Christmas]. I thought they just did a black version of Annie for no reason.”HBO GO - Schmidt proposed to Cece that they should wait in the first-class lounge, “like the other HBO GO subscribers.”Oprah Winfrey - Barry quoted Oprah Winfrey in this episode, saying: "Greatest discovery of all time is that a person can change his future by merely changing his attitude."McDuck - Nick thought Ryan's family had “McDuck money” based on the picture of his house in England.Downton Abbey / Anna and Mr. Bates - When looking at the picture of Ryan's house the gang asked where the characters from Downton Abbey were and if they had seen the show.Scrubs - When Jess and Barry were talking at the bar, Barry said meeting his ex-boyfriend's family over the holidays was worse than the last season of Scrubs.Billy Joel / "Piano Man" / "Goodnight Saigon" - When Schmidt was recounting to the guy in the lounge that he was from Long Island, and not Manhattan, he exclaimed aspects of Long Island culture, including Billy Joel and some of his songs.Paul Dano - Barry shared that he thought Paul Dano was on Nick and Winston's flight where they got first class seats.Daniel Craig - When Schmidt shared to Cece that the guy in the lounge disrespected something more important to him than “any stupid lounge”, Cece questioned if it was  Daniel Craig's tailoring.Thanks for listening and stay tuned for Episode 12!
