As an elementary school teacher I have the fortune of meeting and talking with a large number of parents about puppets and puppetry.  Last year a spoke with a mother of a student at my school who had wonderful  things to say about their “Muppet Vacation” in Jamaica.

Yes, that’s right.  At Beaches vacation spots there are walk around full body Muppets that interact with the visitors.  I am sure any puppet (or specifically Muppets) fan would love this kind of vacation.   

The truth is that I think this is a great idea.  Vactions are about relaxing and having fun.  Being a father now I can see how the latter is just as important as the former.  How cool wuld it be to have a party with Bert and Ernie?  Or go on a bug hunt with Grover?  I am already thinking about going with my family.  But I’ll have to start saving.  Read more about it here.
