With back to school preparations afoot, I hope you’ve all had a great summer so far. I just got back from a two-week vacation to Scotland and earlier in the summer ventured to Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Park, Calif. Along the way, our 3-year-old regularly asked to use our point-and-shoot camera to take photos ranging from plants to trees to the family. We had lots of fun reviewing the photos with her—some were quite good. I plan to make a summer photo book with her using our collective trip photos.


The TravelMuse Cool Kids Trip contest ends Sunday (Aug. 16), so this is a final call for any photos you’d like to submit that were taken by kids, age 16 and under. We’ve had many great submissions already and are looking forward to picking winners, who will receive gift vouchers from $50 to $100 from Shutterfly. The contest also supports the Boys and Girls Clubs of America program Day for Kids.

This has been a heck of a week, folks. Like, maybe one of the Top 10 All-Time Hardest Weeks for this blogger. I, for one, almost wept with gratitude when I looked at the calendar today.

 

Friday means Saturday is just around the bend. Friday means the babysitter comes. Friday means there's a chance I might go to Happy Hour with my husband.

 

It also means it’s time for TravelMusing’s Friday Favorites! This week, I needed to get my funny on, folks.

 

Moms and dads know all about diaper changes on the go. Kayt Sukel shares her list of strangest places she’s changed her son’s pants, and she’s got some good ones. Go share your own stories and share her pain, will you? – TravelSavvyMom

 

This next one made me laugh like a 14-year-old boy. I dare you not to giggle while watching this hilarious clip from CNN. – Tripso

 

There’s nothing funny at all about the current economic climate, but one mother makes the case for dreaming of travel to far-off places. – The Mother of All Trips

 

Speaking of dreams, how about a trip to Switzerland? I loved the photos in this great post about how to enjoy the mountains if you’re a non-skier. I’ll read this one again when I’m recovering from knee surgery next week. – Here To Geneva

 

Not going anywhere anytime soon? Like me? Live vicariously through other people’s vacation photos. Our own talented Calista Chandler offers some super tips on finding great images on Flickr, as if the Internetz didn’t suck up enough of your time already. – TravelMuse Photo Blog

 

I’m outie, people. Time for you to ante up—please, for the love of Pete, send us something, will you? Send your own Friday Favorites to editor AT travelmuse DOT com.
