I’m very excited to be returning to France later this summer. I absolutely adore Paris and it’s my favorite “big” city in Europe that I have visited so far (and we have hit most of the major cities including Madrid, Barcelona, London, Rome, Munich and Prague…though Amsterdam, Dublin, Florence and Milan are still on my… Continue reading France Trip Planning – Summer 2018
Well, wouldn’t you know it? After 3 days of parades, late nights and too much food and drink in New Orleans, I came down with a nasty sinus infection and have been feeling terrible for the last few days and finally saw a doctor this morning. Note to self – I am no longer in… Continue reading New Orleans Restaurant Visits
We just got back yesterday from 3 days in New Orleans where we celebrated the first weekend of Mardi Gras. Mardi Gras (aka, Fat Tuesday) this year falls on February 13, but they have parades and festivities for the two weekends before Mardi Gras. It’s basically the same as Carnivale – everyone parties hard leading… Continue reading Mardi Gras, New Orleans 2018

They’re… Continue reading Favorite Meals of 2017

The day before we left on our trip, I received a… Continue reading Ritz Carlton Bacara Resort & Spa in Santa Barbara, CA

We rented the same small rental home that we have stayed in several times before which is located one block off the main town square and is a perfect location for the… Continue reading Santa Barbara, CA – Wine Country Trip
I spent all last week in Los Angeles for work so I have barely had any time to enjoy the holidays this year. It seems like I blinked and Christmas was already here. Steve and I spent yesterday at my parent’s house who live about 45 minutes north of us. My mom loves to decorate… Continue reading Merry Christmas!
Looking back at my pictures, I realize that 2017 was a great year for our travels. We knocked a few places off of our bucket list, celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary, had a great mother-daughter trip and stayed at some really nice hotels this year. So, without further ado, below are my favorite travel moments… Continue reading Top 5 Travel Moments for 2017
