Our baby came along in the Spring of 2004 and since then we’d been wondering if our travelling days were over. We tested it with a 2 week holiday in Panama when he was one years old.
Before going on the trip, I searched high and low for information on independent travel with a wee one and I was surprised to find that there wasn't much out there. My next few entries are about the things I learned from our first trip.
