Deaf-Friendly Family Vacations

Wednesday January 5, 2005
It is not too soon to make summer plans...as CODAGirl writes:My family is trying to plan a vacation for this coming summer. I'm 24 and hearing. My sister is 13 and HOH. Both my parents are Deaf. I know it's hard enough to find a place that interests all of us, because of our ages. But I was wondering if anyone knew of any particularly Deaf-friendly vacation locales, so we could all be involved in something.
