If you've got something that I can do with a wife, a 6-year-old, and that won't make me lose my job or blow through my savings, I'm interested. Otherwise, I'd just be reading fantasy.
I am still mapping out the 100 different adventures and plan on having a range spanning a bunch of skill and difficulty levels. So hopefully you will find some that you can take your wife and a six year old on.
There are so many adventures out there though that I could write an entire book on "100 Adventure To Take Your Wife and Child On". If enough people want it anyway.
The other aim of my book is to spark ideas for adventure. So perhaps, even if you don't find something you like, it might prompt you to think of something similar that's adapted to your needs.
I think you might do well with the "100 Adventures To Take Your Wife and Child On". There are many adventure type books out there (none as good as your's will be, of course!), but most of us married-with-kids types will pass them up as we'll automatically decide its not relevant to us (and the lucky few without kids may already have bought the other books!).
Selling "the dream" to people with kids is something few try, and it's a very large market.
Well, you've certainly convinced me to sign up for the book. I'm always up for new ideas, and as long as they're not all Kite-surfing Naked Through Cannibal Country, I'll happily keep an open mind.
No, seriously. I'm giving away my stuff, have already found a sailboat, and am preparing to sail from Chicago to New Zealand with my wife, where I'll continue my IT career and we'll have a kid or two. I'm 30, my wife is 29.
You can have any adventure you want; just decide to do it.
Not at all - Hell, every day with a wife and kid is an adventure. I meant more that the big, exotic stuff can be really tricky or expensive with a family. Last year all of us went to Costa Rica with my parents for 10 days, and it was completely awesome, but damn expensive, and we were in cheap hotels in the rain forest, not resorts on the beach.
I think what Clark's writing about is great and inspiring and everyone should do more of it. However, for me to be interested in a how-to book, it has to be something that actually applies to me, and skiing from the North Pole isn't something I can do with a kid.
