From Teresa Plowright, your Guide to Family Vacations
The Year of the Dragon began on Monday January 23rd, but many parades and festivities happen this weekend and next, which could mean free fun for families visiting San Francisco, or London, or NYC, or DC... Also below: a nice promotion at Disney's Aulani Resort on Oahu, and some ideas for Valentine's Day family getaways that have a good chance of giving Moms and Dads some couple time.

Chinese New Year All Over the World
Would you guess that Chinese New Year is one of the biggest events of the year... in Paris? Paris -- one of many cities around the globe that's historically had a large Chinese community -- will have a grand parade on Sunday January 29th. Check out celebrations in San Francisco, DC, Sydney, Canada... Not to mention the parades and fireworks mega-extravaganzas in China, Hong Kong, and Singapore.

Romantic Getaways (With Kids Along)
Admittedly, it may be a challenge to find some couple-time on a family vacation, but there are ways to at least improve the odds. For example, families can head to a resort that offers a kids' club or a Kids' Night Out. Check out eight suggestions for Valentine's Day getaways for families.
