Summer is the season for family travel.
And family travel is synonymous with Orlando, Florida - the Fun Capital of the World. On Swimming Families come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, whether it's the average family with a mom, dad and 2.3 kids, a single parent and child, grandparents with a big, extended clan or a gay couple - we all seek to share fun adventures and new horizons with our loved ones. The act of setting off to go somewhere can become symbolic for shedding what has become constricting, boring and tedious, if even temporarily. The urge to recharge my family's spirits with something special came over me one dark night, while the idea of taking a break with my kids seemed impossible. The list was long.
