    Most of us travel with our parents as children and teenagers. For some of us, during the travel, our parents are our inspiration. These trips are normally full of rental cars, beaches, and hamburgers. My family would go to Galiano island every summer, and we did a week in Mexico in 1995, and then we did two different trips to Anaheim to experience the magic of Disney, Universal, and Knott's Berry Farm.

    But all of these are childhood experiences and memories. I didn't really truly travel with my parents until I was an adult when I got the chance to travel with mom and dad.

    I was in New Zealand for a study abroad, and invited my parents to come down for a 2-week road trip around the North Island and then 10 days in Fiji. Why not? They said, as if this was something they were invited to do every day. I didn't really plan anything, but my mom had done some reading and I knew some highlights (最好的部分) after living in New Zealand for 5 months.

    I had booked a hotel for their first night in Auckland. The only other preparation I had done was to book a rental car. My parents immediately reached an agreement that I should be the driver, for the whole two weeks. The main reason for this, understandably, was that neither of them had ever been in a country where you drive on the left hand side of the road and on the right hand side of the car. This led to me driving my parents around the entire North Island of New Zealand for 2 weeks! But still, everybody had jobs. Dad had the maps, and mom had the guidebook, and I just took them where they told me to go.

    Sometimes, I was asked who I was traveling with. When I said "my parents", the response was, "Ohhh, older people." Actually, I have some tips on travelling with parents happily.
