We skipped our annual Christmas celebrations with extended family and went on vacation instead - just the 4 of us
"It's when our close-knit extended family gets together to celebrate, feast, and spend time with one another. However, my husband, two young kids, and I spent last Christmas sitting in our caravan on a remote beach in South Australia, just the four of us. It was a far cry from the holidays before. But after years of deliberating, we'd just recently packed up our lives and belongings and headed toward the Australian outback for a yearlong adventure in a small caravan."
"As the holiday season approached, we dug out the tree and our kids decorated with the small selection of trimmings we'd brought with us. Quickly, the whole caravan turned into a Christmas ornament, with tinsel and fairy lights hanging from every nook and cranny. To our surprise, it was really magical. The kids loved the space so much that the lights stayed up long after December 25."
A husband, wife, and two young children spent Christmas in a caravan on a remote South Australian beach during a yearlong outback adventure. They decorated a small travel-sized tree and transformed the caravan with tinsel and fairy lights. Presents were shipped to the caravan and relatives joined the celebration via video calls. Limited cooking facilities prompted a barbecue nacho feast instead of a traditional roast. The children loved the decorations so much that the lights stayed up long after December 25, and the family enjoyed a joyful, improvised holiday together.
