I'm Kim, a Proud Generation Xer, and I'm here with my baby boomer mom Karen.

Welcome back, welcome back to Walks with Mom.
00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:45.759
My name is Kim, and I am a Generation Xer, and I'm here with my mom as a co-host.
00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:50.159
And I'm Karen and I'm a baby boomer.
00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:52.240
Yes, baby boomer.
00:00:52.479 --> 00:00:53.119
This year.
00:00:53.439 --> 00:00:54.159
This year.
00:00:54.399 --> 00:00:54.880
This year.
00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:55.920
I turned 80.
00:00:56.079 --> 00:00:56.399
You did.
00:00:56.479 --> 00:00:57.200
You turned 80.
00:00:57.280 --> 00:01:02.960
So if you didn't hear that, go back to the episodes of kind of we've we had aging.
00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:09.200
We'll have our producer put them in the show notes because I'm getting tired.
00:01:09.359 --> 00:01:16.560
And today, if you don't know where we're filming from, we're filming from a studio here in Mesa, Arizona.
00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:18.719
And uh it is June.
00:01:18.959 --> 00:01:20.480
No, wait, we're July.
00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:23.439
We're July and we are boiling.
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:24.319
We are bowling.
00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:27.359
It's not even hitting its its peak yet.
00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:28.319
But we're what?
00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:30.879
It's 112, 113 outside.
00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:37.439
So um for those of you that are in cooler weather, we envy you during this time.
00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:40.400
But um We like our our winters though here.
00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:42.319
We yes, that's why we live here.
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:45.840
We live here for the the nine other months of the year, right?
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:46.640
Or eight months.
00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:49.040
It's more like six other months of the year.
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:50.239
Come on, be real.
00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:57.359
Uh well, we don't have any natural disasters here in Arizona, so that's a that's a good thing, too.
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:02.239
Um, but today's podcast is about multi-generational vacations.
00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:04.000
Family vacations, yeah.
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:09.840
We just returned uh last week from taking 12 people.
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:17.599
I guess there was a total of 12 of us, ages 14 to 80, on a family vacation.
00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:26.800
Now, first of all, before I preface this, mom's gonna ask the questions today, but I've always told people, they'll say, How was your vacation?
00:02:27.199 --> 00:02:34.879
And I always say, Well, there's I think trips and vacations, there's two different definitions, right?
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:35.520
Uh-huh.
00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:38.159
Uh to me, this was not a vacation.
00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:43.199
This was a family trip, and we could talk about all the wonderful things, but this is a trip.
00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:51.919
In my opinion, a vacation is where I do absolutely nothing except what you want to do.
00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:53.360
I want to do.
00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:58.879
So, so in my opinion, there is definitely a difference between trip and vacation.
00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:00.240
This is definitely a trip.
00:03:00.400 --> 00:03:04.560
And they're both, they're both equally needed, I think.
00:03:05.199 --> 00:03:11.120
But I even though we say this was a family vacation, because that's just easier, I say it was a family trip.
00:03:11.360 --> 00:03:11.680
Yeah.
00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:12.159
Okay.
00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:15.360
So now you get to do the questions because you prepared.
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:20.319
Well, first of all, this was our second family quote vacation.
00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:20.960
Yep.
00:03:21.360 --> 00:03:23.520
With uh a large part of our family.
00:03:23.759 --> 00:03:25.120
Yep, multi-generational.
00:03:25.520 --> 00:03:31.280
And we had so much fun on the first one where we went to Yellowstone.
00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:32.400
Yellowstone.
00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:36.240
And so there we were mostly there to see the scenery.
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:37.039
Yeah.
00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:45.120
This was entirely different, although we did go to a cool place, uh, which was Big Bear Lake in California.
00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:48.560
We had this great Airbnb.
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:51.520
It fit all 12 of us.
00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:55.439
And um we had five bathrooms, I think.
00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:57.039
Yeah, I think there was five bathrooms.
00:03:57.120 --> 00:03:58.560
Almost everybody had their own room.
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:01.520
Yes, unless you were married or something like that.
00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:02.400
Yeah.
00:04:02.719 --> 00:04:04.879
So um why?
00:04:05.120 --> 00:04:06.960
Why do you want to do this?
00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:10.479
Well, it's developing family.
00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:14.000
You develop family relationships.
00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:15.039
Relationships.
00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:20.480
You know people more, you enjoy them, you learn to enjoy them.
00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:32.240
Yeah, I think what I enjoy about the the family trip is that it's when some organic conversations can happen that need to happen.
00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:34.560
I mean, there's always family dynamics.
00:04:34.720 --> 00:04:38.399
We we're not immune to having family dynamics.
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:49.439
Um, so sometimes it's
Load full transcript
it's the space and the time to slow down and and have conversations that happen organically.
00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:49.839
Yeah.
00:04:50.000 --> 00:05:04.079
And those happen maybe when, you know, people are getting up in the morning and having a cup of coffee and they're sitting out on, you know, the patio and able to maybe just talk about some things that are on their heart.
00:05:04.319 --> 00:05:10.480
And just share without having to feel rushed by time or um yeah.
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:20.639
Or the awkwardness, hey, I've been meaning to talk to you about this, or oh, that brings up, you know, you know, some catch up because in our busy world we're either used to texting.
00:05:20.879 --> 00:05:24.240
Well, it's texting, and how much can you say when you're texting?
00:05:24.319 --> 00:05:24.480
Yeah.
00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:30.079
Some people say a lot, but yeah, but it was time to catch up on people's like where they're at, what they're doing.
00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:37.279
So what was really nice about this vacation is different people took different roles in planning it.
00:05:37.439 --> 00:05:40.160
Now, she's the ultimate planner.
00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:45.120
The ultimate yes, I have the type A personality.
00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:49.120
Thank goodness she passed that on to my kids.
00:05:49.360 --> 00:05:52.639
Yeah, but you allocated this time.
00:05:52.959 --> 00:06:04.879
And but let me make that known is that in our previous vacation for Yellowstone, I didn't really allocate because um, you know, our kids were just kind of becoming adults.
00:06:05.040 --> 00:06:12.560
And so it was nice for um now my kids are are more adulting, and so I allocated roles to to people.
00:06:12.959 --> 00:06:15.199
And it I think it worked out really good.
00:06:15.360 --> 00:06:16.160
How did you feel?
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:16.879
Oh, it did.
00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:22.560
So we we definitely had we had three different, we had kind of three different committees, I think.
00:06:22.800 --> 00:06:23.120
Okay.
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:28.240
So we had the meal committee, the meal planning, the meal planning.
00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:43.279
Um, we had the entertainment committee, and I wouldn't say it was a committee, but there's definitely one in our family that is the neutral party, if that makes sense.
00:06:43.439 --> 00:06:54.240
Like he is the one that can redirect people in the nice, calm way that people don't feel like they were slapped in the face, if that makes sense.
00:06:54.399 --> 00:06:55.839
It's just his per personality.
00:06:56.160 --> 00:06:57.040
It's his personality.
00:06:57.120 --> 00:07:05.199
So I would have to say he's kind of like the one that is that keeps everybody at equal liberal.
00:07:05.439 --> 00:07:06.800
Yeah, on a neutral.
00:07:07.279 --> 00:07:13.279
There were different things planned, but nobody was obligated to participate in anything.
00:07:13.519 --> 00:07:13.759
Yeah.
00:07:13.839 --> 00:07:37.759
So I think to your point, mom, if people are planning a multi-generational vacation, they should plan activities that can be participated in and or not participated in, because there's some activities that you chose not to participate just because of the physical activity or the age that you chose not to participate.
00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:41.120
So yeah, everybody knows that they have that freedom.
00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:43.759
The freedom to advocate for themselves.
00:07:43.839 --> 00:07:46.160
So that's always that was that was a theme.
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:47.279
You always advocate for yourself.
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:48.639
Advocate for yourself.
00:07:48.720 --> 00:07:52.079
And if this is not your activity, that's fine, okay.
00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:52.560
Yeah.
00:07:52.800 --> 00:08:01.680
One of the things that did I think pretty much happen every single night is that we had dinner together.
00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:02.319
Yeah.
00:08:02.720 --> 00:08:04.560
Not necessarily the other meal.
00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:09.519
Sometimes yes, sometimes no, but dinner was always together.
00:08:10.079 --> 00:08:13.360
So we had time that we were all 12 together.
00:08:14.000 --> 00:08:18.079
Um and following that was a quote, family meeting.
00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:19.839
Well, it was a family council.
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:23.120
So they made it like they made it like camp.
00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:37.360
Like we had family council and we went over the day, and we had challenges during the day of who could take the best photo or we had to take a photo with a complete stranger one day.
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:42.720
And I was really impressed, mom, that you did the challenges of the day.
00:08:42.879 --> 00:08:43.120
Yeah.
00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:43.600
Every day.
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:45.120
You know, not everybody did.
00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:46.320
No, but you did.
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:46.799
Yeah.
00:08:46.960 --> 00:08:48.159
So good for you.
00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:53.440
Um, and and so that was one of the fun activities that happened.
00:08:53.600 --> 00:08:55.440
So we had a family council every night.
00:08:55.600 --> 00:08:55.919
Right.
00:08:56.080 --> 00:09:00.879
And the family council was to, you know, go through pictures took.
00:09:01.039 --> 00:09:04.000
We had a common um text.
00:09:04.559 --> 00:09:09.679
So everybody could load up pictures that they took that they wanted to share with everybody.
00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:10.159
Yeah.
00:09:10.320 --> 00:09:20.639
And we voted on which was the best picture, who met the challenge of the day, um, who had an unusual outfit on or something like that.
00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:22.159
Or the best outfit of the day.
00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:22.879
Yeah.
00:09:23.120 --> 00:09:26.799
So it that was kind of fun because we were all talking together.
00:09:27.039 --> 00:09:33.600
But the most fun was after that, we did a family game.
00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:41.039

We're enriching lives, one family at a time.
00:10:17.519 --> 00:10:18.799
Yes, we did.
00:10:19.039 --> 00:10:23.600
And it was uh really different each night.
00:10:23.759 --> 00:10:27.360
Can you imagine 12 people playing the same game?
00:10:27.600 --> 00:10:28.960
And different generations.
00:10:29.039 --> 00:10:30.879
So we have different generations.
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:34.240
So in my opinion, we had four generations there.
00:10:35.200 --> 00:10:35.679
Four?
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:37.039
I only count three.
00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:37.519
I know.
00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:39.200
We have we had the Gen Z.
00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:52.320
Um, and then I believe we have some in our family that are like right between the Gen Z and the millennials.
00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:54.720
So I call them zillennials.
00:10:54.960 --> 00:10:55.279
Okay.
00:10:56.320 --> 00:11:00.480
And then you have us, the Generation X, and then you had the baby boomers.
00:11:00.639 --> 00:11:03.919
So I feel like we had four generations there.
00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:13.919
But um how what were some good things about playing family games and what were some challenges about family games in a multi-generational setting?
00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:20.720
Well, the fun was that you really got to see people's personalities uh come out.
00:11:21.519 --> 00:11:27.679
And um it was because of the games chosen, like one was Mafia.
00:11:27.840 --> 00:11:35.279
I don't had never played mafia before, but you have to decide different things as a group.
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:36.080
Yeah.
00:11:36.399 --> 00:11:50.240
And so to hear people try to convince you of their viewpoint and just I saw some people being very verbal that I would have never S, you know, expected to be verbal.
00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:53.120
And then there were some people that were very quiet.
00:11:54.879 --> 00:11:57.759
But it it was just kind of fun.
00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:01.759
And uh we played another game, where werewolf.
00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:02.799
Werewolf, yeah.
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:05.279
It was very similar to Mafia.
00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:15.679
Yeah, but I I just saw everybody interacting, even those that were quiet, they were may have been playing a role by being quiet.
00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:18.000
So they were like in character, yeah.
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:29.840
And one of the other games that we played, we were we were split into teams and we had to uh create a presentation for people to invest.
00:12:30.159 --> 00:12:34.399
I I can't think of the name of that show now, but it's a popular show.
00:12:34.559 --> 00:12:37.519
But we had to it remember that game?
00:12:38.080 --> 00:12:39.440
What was your team won?
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:41.600
What did you have to convince everybody?
00:12:42.080 --> 00:12:46.320
We had to convince people to buy land on um Venus.
00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:46.960
Venus.
00:12:47.120 --> 00:12:55.360
Yes, yes, we had to convince people to buy land on Venus, and there were simple other things like a corn cob watch.
00:12:55.759 --> 00:12:58.720
And mine was waterproof firewood.
00:12:58.960 --> 00:12:59.679
Oh, yeah.
00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:08.799
So um it was randomly put on a team, so you didn't choose your friend or your close close close family member.
00:13:08.960 --> 00:13:09.279
Yeah.
00:13:09.600 --> 00:13:16.960
And you worked together to do this presentation, and um some interesting personalities came out.
00:13:17.440 --> 00:13:22.879
People that we wouldn't have thought that they they just uh kind of showed their skills.
00:13:23.039 --> 00:13:23.919
It was really nice.
00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:24.879
It was really nice.
00:13:25.120 --> 00:13:29.360
So what was the most difficult game to play multi-generationally?
00:13:29.679 --> 00:13:38.320
Well, it's called Fishbowl, and it's where um you put in a person, place, or thing into a fish bowl.
00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:41.120
Each person does that, and then you draw it out.
00:13:41.279 --> 00:13:46.000
Well, then you have to act it out or taught uh use descriptive words.
00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:47.440
Your team guess it.
00:13:47.600 --> 00:13:48.240
Yeah.
00:13:48.559 --> 00:13:58.159
Well, you just pulled it out of the bowl, and because we were multi-generational, some people put names in there of people the rest of us had known.
00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:00.399
The other generations didn't know.
00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:00.799
Yeah.
00:14:00.960 --> 00:14:02.240
Yeah, so that was the challenge.
00:14:02.559 --> 00:14:04.000
And that was a challenge then.
00:14:04.240 --> 00:14:09.360
So we learned quickly how we had to set some parameters on what you put in the fishbowl.
00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:25.360
Try to be sure it's something everybody would know because there are some very big generational differences and gaps in who's popular in your life or places you might go or things like that.
00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:32.879
So well, it wasn't this time, but we've played fishbowl before at another time, and I think you had put Rock Hudson in.
00:14:32.960 --> 00:14:35.279
And I was like, Everybody should know Rock Hudson.
00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:45.440
No, I no, and so even your generation is putting things in that the other, the younger generation didn't know about.
00:14:45.759 --> 00:14:51.519
So, but it it they were just fun anyway, you know, fun uh to to work together.
00:14:51.679 --> 00:14:55.600
And then during the day, you know, we did different activities.
00:14:55.759 --> 00:14:58.960
Um, you're welcome to go or you didn't go, you know.
00:14:59.200 --> 00:15:03.120
And uh I think we all went on the alpine slide.
00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:04.399
That was very fun.
00:15:04.559 --> 00:15:06.000
Even even the boomers.
00:15:06.159 --> 00:15:06.399
Yep.
00:15:06.720 --> 00:15:08.639
Even the boomers did the alpine slide.
00:15:08.879 --> 00:15:13.679
We had to have our grandkids help us sit down in those sleds.
00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:15.039
Into the sleds.
00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:18.080
But that made it more like family.
00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:23.440
And the funny thing is, is we don't have any pictures of that because we were all participating.
00:15:23.679 --> 00:15:37.519
And I think that's what I love is you know, I don't have pictures to capture the moment, but then I was very much present in the moment because we were all up on the top of the mountain at the same time.
00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:45.519
Take a chairlift to the top of the mountain, and we were all working on helping the boomers get down safely.
00:15:45.759 --> 00:15:49.279
Some of us went down before so we could help you guys get off.
00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:50.000
Yes.
00:15:50.240 --> 00:15:54.000
So it was really, you know, we were just in the moment.
00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:55.200
In the moment.
00:15:55.360 --> 00:15:59.840
And uh, I just feel like closer relationships are developed.
00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:13.679
Um and and so what would what is what are two things that you would suggest for multi-generational families when they're planning any type of vacation or trip together?
00:16:14.159 --> 00:16:14.559
Trip.
00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:19.039
Well you want to make it affordable.
00:16:19.360 --> 00:16:19.679
Okay.
00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:28.159
And of course, we had all sorts of generations with some people just don't have much income because they're in college.
00:16:28.559 --> 00:16:28.720
Right.
00:16:29.200 --> 00:16:33.600
So you have to plan for something that's financially able for everyone.
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:40.080
And of course, we did have some people that were willing to uh help other people out financially.
00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:51.440
I think by staying in Airbnb, we were um had the ability to just sit down and play a game with somebody, you know, or or just sit down, like you said, a cup of coffee and talk.
00:16:51.759 --> 00:16:52.879
So space matters.
00:16:53.120 --> 00:16:55.440
So the space really matters.
00:16:55.679 --> 00:16:57.039
And there was plenty of space here.
00:16:57.200 --> 00:17:06.880
We didn't you you could get away if you needed to get away, you could go outside, you could uh had two living areas, retreat to your bedroom.
00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:07.519
Yeah.
00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:12.799
Um so you know, think about your space, think about the distance.
00:17:13.039 --> 00:17:18.960
Uh we purposely took this one so we could drive and not fly because of the cost.
00:17:19.680 --> 00:17:27.279
Um I think you need to have a ultimate planner so that it will get done.
00:17:28.319 --> 00:17:29.519
And communicate.
00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:30.720
Communicate with it.
00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:35.119
You've got to communicate with everybody what's gonna happen, the expectations.
00:17:35.759 --> 00:17:36.079
Yeah.
00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:39.359
Uh you're expected to pay this much for food.
00:17:40.079 --> 00:17:50.559
Um The only thing I did not like because I was on the food committee, was the amount of food I had to cook.
00:17:51.119 --> 00:17:58.079
Of course, we had like five young, huge, well, they're not huge, but boys.
00:17:58.799 --> 00:17:59.039
Yeah.
00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:00.319
Boys, men.
00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:03.039
And that was a lot of food we went to.
00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:04.880
Yeah, we did go through a lot of food.
00:18:05.039 --> 00:18:06.480
We did go through a lot of food.
00:18:06.640 --> 00:18:15.599
So what I think, what would you suggest to a baby boomer, somebody who's aging or on the older side as they go into a family trip?
00:18:15.680 --> 00:18:21.200
Because I saw you do a c a couple of of really smart things.
00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:22.319
Okay.
00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:25.359
Well, maybe you should tell me the smart things I did.
00:18:25.599 --> 00:18:36.000
Well, I think you advocated for yourself, but you also um you were in reality that it's a multi- it's not all about you.
00:18:36.319 --> 00:18:37.519
It was about everybody.
00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:38.079
Right.
00:18:38.240 --> 00:18:44.319
And so I think that was really smart that you embraced that, that uh you were flexible.
00:18:44.720 --> 00:18:45.519
Yes, yes.
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:49.920
And realized that other people had other needs and wanted to do.
00:18:50.079 --> 00:18:54.000
Oh, one of the best things was the uh water balloon fight, by the way.
00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:58.799
Because I got to throw them at the other people.
00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:01.359
Yes, that was fun.
00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:02.640
That we forgot about that.
00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:05.359
Yeah, it was a good that's another one that there's not a lot of pictures.
00:19:05.839 --> 00:19:07.279
You know, you do have to be flexible.
00:19:07.359 --> 00:19:09.200
I don't care what generation you are.
00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:16.559
You're going to have most fun if you're flexible in something like this because there's a whole lot of people to consider.
00:19:16.720 --> 00:19:16.960
Yeah.
00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:18.960
And that you're making memories to last.
00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:19.440
Yes.
00:19:19.599 --> 00:19:20.240
Well, good.
00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:28.400

00:19:55.839 --> 00:19:57.200
There are some things to consider.
00:19:57.279 --> 00:20:00.880
