Vacation Plans

As you all know, the Fam makes a point of planning a big vacation once a year. And of course, since this year's Oregon Coast trip has passed, and the ever-crazed Missus Och insists on being in constant planning mode, next year's trip is on the planning block.

Next year's is a HUGE one, the biggest we will undertake...and is currently a logistical nightmare. One, our base will be London. Two, all three children will be with us. Three, we have three other families coming along. Since this vacay was the original idea of Fam Och, we are in charge of the planning.

So many options! We're predicting Mister Och will only be approved for two weeks of leave; three will be pushing it, four is just near impossible. It's a definite that one of the two weeks will be spent in London. The second week is the one in question....

Should we spend the next week in Paris? Or should we slow down the pace and stay at a country estate in Wales or Scotland country?

What are your thoughts and/or suggestions? If any of you have done the London thing, any tips on finding a decent apartment rental in the area?

Really, any input from any of you will be mucho appreciated.
