I sometimes snap pictures of things on vacation that have no real significance but they simply amused me for one reason or another. I was cleaning out old photos on my iphone recently and came across a few gems that I had forgotten about so thought I would share for a few laughs (even if I’m… Continue reading Amusing Things You See While Traveling
My husband hates it when I take his photo on vacation or when I try to take selfies. I’ll admit, selfies are pretty silly but occasionally I like to take a few of them. When I try to snap photos, I usually get a sneer or an annoyed side-eye look from him. Case in point… Continue reading My Husband Gives Me the Thumbs-Up on Vacation…All. The. Time.
We have our next big vacation coming up in just 2 weeks and we can’t wait. In April 2016, we took off one week to visit Italy and since then we have done a couple of weekend trips here and there (Santa Fe, New York, Austin) so I am ready for 8 consecutive days away!… Continue reading Antigua Plans
Last week I traveled to New York to attend a work conference on Thursday. I decided to stay for the weekend as a friend of mine was attending the same conference and we thought it would be fun to hang out in the city, shop, eat some good food and catch a show. We stayed… Continue reading New York, New York

I’ll do them in chronological order in this post because they were all wonderful though if pressed, I think I enjoyed our long, multi-course lunch at Auberge du Soleil the most. Solbar at Solage Resort We stayed… Continue reading Napa Valley Dining
Last weekend, I spent 3 nights in Napa Valley with a friend for a girls’ getaway (reviews of hotels and restaurants to come in later posts). From what I have read, there are around 400+ wineries in Napa Valley. The valley runs north/south and is about 2 hours north of San Francisco. Napa gets very… Continue reading Napa Valley Wineries
Next Friday I head to Napa Valley for a 3 night stay with a friend. This is my first visit to Napa and I am really looking forward to wine tasting, massages at the spa, delicious farm to table food and general relaxation, which is much needed after a difficult few weeks. We are playing… Continue reading Napa Valley Plans
Been a little while since I posted but, on a personal note, we had a death in the family last week, which has kept me and my husband occupied. It was a close relative and someone that died far too young so it’s been particularly difficult. Whenever something tragic like this happens it does remind… Continue reading Private Island Resorts
Note that this post is not about favorite restaurants or even what I consider the “best” meal or dish that I have ever eaten while traveling. Some of my favorite and most memorable meals were due to the overall experience, including the view, the food, the people, the location, my travel companion (usually Steve) and… Continue reading Favorite Travel Dining Experiences
