I always tell my visitors to do that, mainly because you don't always get to see everything on your first visit (eg try to visit a museum but sorry it is wednesday afternoon or winter hours or ticket office has closed 30mins early etc etc), lunch may take 3 hours and often trains etc are delayed. Hmmm remember your Sicily trip....? My idea of a stress free holiday right now is one without the kids! Even 1 night would be heavenly. A vacation with little kids is not really like a 'holiday' in the true sense of the word, rather just a change of scenery... <strong><em>I've heard that about traveling with kids, V.
