Air travel, it isn't for everyone. Maybe it is a fear of flying. Perhaps the thought of breathing the same recycled air of 200 total strangers in an aluminum can, 30,000+ feet in the air is less than appealing. Whatever the reasoning may be, a cruise can be a rewarding alternative to flying. If you … Continue reading Not a flyer? Take a Cruise!

Cram it in: The only way to see it all?

Due to that performance, I headed back down to Connecticut … Continue reading Golden Shades of Twain
Timeless Figures with Labels
Today's only stamped itinerary was Madame Tussaud's at noon. At least that was the slot I planned to get in.

The Tower & The Stage
Day Two: October 21, 2018, London, England To make a commitment to various spots on your travels, I honestly think it helps when they're booked in advance.

Packing 101: When to start?
You have selected your destination and your date of travel. You've booked your travel and lodging, but you are still months away from your trip and you feel it might be too early to pack...but is it? The short answer is "never". The long answer is more of a "well, it depends". Personally, I employ … Continue reading Packing 101: When to start?
