In this section we highlight trips we’ve been on and share ideas on where to go and what to see.
I remember being so excited and full of anticipation as the day of our departure neared. This was a bucket list trip for me, as I had dreamed of going on safari for a very long time. My love and admiration of Big Cats went as far back as my childhood and the idea of […]
On a whim after seeing flights from Miami for just over 100$ return we decided to visit Puerto Rico. This was our first time here and as a US territory it is simple to get to. Miami had literally a dozen direct flights daily and the short 2.5-hour flight was a breeze. We enjoyed seeing the aqua blue […]
This was a bucket list trip for me, as I had dreamed of going on safari for a very long time. My love and admiration of Big Cats went as far back as my childhood and the idea of getting close to these majestic animals was exhilarating. Here I was years later on my way […]
Following our escapade in Normandy we returned to Paris for a few days. It was our third visit (in 15 years mind you) so much of this was just to go back to familiar haunts and get some fresh pictures of our favorites including the Notre-Dame, Sainte-Chapelle, Pantheon, Sacré-Coeur, Arc de Triomphe, and of course […]

Traveling to India for only 8 days might seem like it’s too far to go, maybe, it’s even a little crazy to travel across the world for such a limited amount of time. But as travelers we take what we can get and make the most of our sightseeing opportunities. Since my husband had some […]
Taking a Baltic cruise is an excellent way to explore the northern seas, the waterways of the Vikings. The best time to go is during the summer months. We opted to go during the last week of June when the days are endless so we could see the midnight sun. It’s pretty cool to watch […]
The Palace of Versailles is one of the top attractions to visit in Paris. Once you get there, it’s easy to see why so many flock to this marvel of French architecture. The palace is an extravaganza of luxury with splendid gardens, fountains and sculptures. The palace’s interior is a fine example of the lavish […]
