Okay, my plan was to give you a full blog post today, but the jet lag is winning (or maybe it’s already won?), so I think you’re just going to get a quick update for now, with a full update tomorrow. It’s all about the antici………..pation, right?? As you probably guessed from the title, we […]

The time has finally come! Yes, our Europe 2015 adventure is about to begin. 🙂 We’ve checked in at the airport in Minneapolis and are waiting for our first flight, which will get us to NYC. We have a short layover there and then it’s on to Iceland! Non-direct flights are obviously not the preferred […]

My my, I guess I’ve been shirking my blogging duties lately, haven’t I? I’m sure you’ve missed my profound posts, so get ready for some new ones! Keep an eye out for a post by the weekend recapping my recent trip to “beautiful” Las Vegas. Of course, it’s not really beautiful at all (to me), […]

I’ve already been home from Mexico for two weeks. How did that happen?? I guess time soldiers on, as it always does, so now it’s spring (hooray!), the weather has improved at home (though it is snowing as I write this post), and I’ve already been thinking about more trips.

I feel like I never have much to share on these beachy vacations, so consider this a quick update on our trip thus far. 🙂 Things are going well! The GR Solaris continues to be a good resort (and definitely continues to be better than the Oasis Sens!) and we’re all having a good time […]

We’re in Mexico! Of course, those of you who can read Spanish already knew that from the title. 🙂 We made it safely to Cancun yesterday after a fairly uneventful flight (unless you count the guy across the aisle from me who brought his own supply of mini liquor bottles with him on the plane […]

There’s at least one thing in common with every trip I’ve ever taken – they’ve all ended. Yes, it’s sad but true – vacations can’t last forever. If they last forever, they just become life. And when that’s your life, what do you take a vacation from?? Deep words, I know. 🙂 I’ve had a […]

Okay, there’s no money involved, but I did work hard today! Why would I do that on vacation? To help my friend Matt put together stuff for Timey Wimey tomorrow, of course! Now, that isn’t all I did today, so let’s rewind and recap briefly. The day unfortunately started with some bad news as my […]
