In cities, we've gone into museums and hotels to use bathrooms. Otherwise, cafes and restaurants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-go-to-the-bathroom-when-traveling-with-kids#post-2245054 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 12:32:42 +0000 MrsBrewer 2245054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Normally rest areas! There are always rest areas on our freeways! And they are really nice actually! Normally with picnic areas and everything! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-go-to-the-bathroom-when-traveling-with-kids#post-2245001 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 11:54:01 +0000 mrbee 2245001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: Oh haha I grew up in Northern Virginia and headed north a lot. So maybe we're talking about some of the same rest stops! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-go-to-the-bathroom-when-traveling-with-kids#post-2244999 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 11:53:03 +0000 Mamaof2 2244999@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: yep! Live in PA and we pretty much head south.</p> <p>We do a 10 hr drive to Myrtle Beach every year and usually stop at them to have lunch (pack a picnic) and run around some - They get nicer the farther south you go :happy:</p> <p>eta: if we go to Wawa/Sheetz/McD, etc - they end up wanting a drink which means we will stopping again soon because they have to pee...again! So I try to avoid them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-go-to-the-bathroom-when-traveling-with-kids#post-2244997 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 11:49:41 +0000 mrbee 2244997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mamaof2: Do they have good rest areas in your area? I grew up near a lot of great rest stops, but when we travel upstate in NY it's usually pretty disappointing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-go-to-the-bathroom-when-traveling-with-kids#post-2244989 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 11:42:51 +0000 Mamaof2 2244989@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>rest areas on the interstate or Wawa/Sheetz </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-go-to-the-bathroom-when-traveling-with-kids#post-2244974 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 11:34:23 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2244974@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We always stop at fast food places to use the restroom! </p> <p>We go on the same vacation to a beach town every year, and we always stop at the same burger place for a potty break and a bite to eat. Every year! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/where-to-go-to-the-bathroom-when-traveling-with-kids#post-2244972 Fri, 24 Jul 2015 11:32:20 +0000 mrbee 2244972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We usually stop at fast food places or coffee shops, then buy something there and take a potty break. Seriously, Starbucks and McDonalds are America's bathrooms! That said, our last few trips haven't been too far and the kids usually fall asleep after a while, so we can usually wait until we get home before they have to go.</p> <p>When we're traveling internationally, we usually go on the airplane and/or in the hotel. </p>
