A while back, I calculated all of our trip expenses for our personal records. I never planned on publishing this on the blog, but I think it's fairly interesting history. Long story short: the trip cost a lot. Still, it didn't cost nearly as much as I thought it might. Divided between six people, it totalled slightly more than $2000 per person. That's not terrible when you consider we were there for nineteen days. That comes out to $108 per person per day. Brooklyn's attending a conference in Maryland this February where her per diem allowance for food alone is $70.
We spent far more than this on the combination of our new fireplaces and furnace. I am so grateful for our warm house. However, I'm just as grateful for these European memories created as a family. I may be a notorious cheapskate, but I would splurge and do it again.
