Sorry...got to disagree with all these big time Asia type holidays. You are thinking of adults! Save that for you and Ange and romance.
The kids want a beach and the sun and some interesting buildings.
Greece...your eldest son would have just done his topic on the greek Legends and will be into the Minotaur, mosaics and the byzantines etc
The greeks love kids...the taverners are open till whatever time you leave and the family feeling is Fantastic.
Also, if you take your kids to such fantastic places HOW are they gonna appreciate them with their limited understanding and empathy...AND what dreams will they have when they are uni and want to travel?
Also it's only Europe...short flights, Ange wont be hassled by trying to keep the kids organised in the departure lounge and it will be cheap, you'll save yourself a few grand and the kids will remember it for the family time it is.



Sorry, just adding some extra thoughts...I have a lad in my class who has been everywhere with his grandparents.
He's 7 years old and Just come back from Mexico.
I asked him what he did. ALL he could remember was playing on the beach and being by the pool. Grandma obviously had a different story.
He came back from Rio last september...and ALL he could remember was the beach and the pool.
That travelling experience with Grandma and Grandpa REALLY enriched his life and his understanding of the world!
