Plan a bus trip this summer and it could help keep your family together by forging bonds between generations and creating memories.

When travel planning involves meal planning, smart planners remember their history lessons. It was Napoleon who famously noted that “an army marches on its stomach.” But any travel planner can tell you, it’s not just armies that demand their rations. Bus groups need food, too. When it comes to basic human needs, food is right up there with shelter, clothing, and sleep. But food is also an object of pleasure and enjoyment, replete with social, cultural, and even emotional significance. Whether your group is a high school football team or the local women’s club, your passengers expect something tasty and filling as they travel from point A to point B.

So, you’ve agreed to plan a bus group with teens. Or maybe you’ve volunteered to be a chaperone.

You may also have to be a surrogate parent, mediator of disputes, and—should the need arise—a disciplinarian.

Or, you’re tired. Or, you need desperately to use the facilities. Or, you’re bored. You get the idea. You’re only human, after all, and we humans need to eat, sleep and “freshen up” regularly. And while boredom probably never killed anyone, who among us doesn’t like to be entertained?
