We recently had a dinner party, one couple, and four guests who were single.
After the party, one of my husband's comments was how much everyone there
travels. One of the guests left the party early because she was flying out
to Hawaii early the next morning. People talked about diving in the Red Sea,
a recent trip to Indonesia, the list went on and on. I said to DH that none
of those people had kids full-time. Even the couple only had one kid from a
previous marriage who they don't have custody of. It's a lot easier to go
places and have the money to travel if you're not raising kids.

Comments?

Undoubtedly it's easier (and less expensive) to travel without kids.
Plus, KIDS cost money, which may not leave as much for travel.

If, however, traveling is a high priority for you, you find ways to do
it, anyway.

It never has been for me, even BC, so the fact that I've done so little
traveling with my kids is sort of irrelevant. I have two siblings (one
with no kids, one has just had his first) who do a LOT of fairly exotic
traveling, but none of my siblings WITH kids have.
