I saw comments the other day in response to a posting from Perth Australia, with several members mentioning that they would like to holiday there. I thought how great it would be if we could start a holiday network, where people with kids with DS could holiday with others in the same situation, either house swapping or just coming to visit for a week. We are building a big house on the coast of NSW Australia. There is a great beach for kids and we would love to have some overseas visitors!

Nicola,
That sounds like a fantastic idea. I think there are even some organized groups who plan vacations for special needs kids and their families. I know I found a site a long time ago that was giving info. about a ski vacation for families with kids with Ds. It was a three hour drive from our home, so I thought that when my daughter got older, it would be fun to do. I am very into the whole Ds community spirit and would love to vacation with you all! It's also nice just to hang out and have fun with other normal families who have kids with Ds. Now how do we get our world wide family to meet? That's the big question!
