Food Favorites: The Maine Lobster Roll
Ahhh... The Maine Lobster Roll. Consisting of a well toasted buttery hot dog bun and an overwhelming amount of lobster. Weather you are a traditionalist and prefer it mixed with mayo, or are more partial to that warm butter drizzled on top, Maine is where you want to get a Lobster Roll. After making my way up the coast I have concluded that there are two places in Maine that are a must and offer an irresistible, mouth watering, and all around delicious Maine Lobster Roll. Red


The Great Wolf Lodge
This past May we decided to visit the Great Wolf Lodge in Central Massachusetts. Penny was turning three and we wanted to get away from the the rainy cool weather to celebrate. After throwing out a few ideas we decided to make the trip to the Great Wolf Lodge, an indoor resort centered around entertaining kids. After much contemplation we decided on a one night stay, which gave us two days at the water park. You are free to go from open to close each day. Upon arrival we wer


Disney and Universal Park Break Down
So your planning a trip to Disney World and Universal and you simply cannot decide on where to go? Join the club! So may options and frankly never enough time. I am a see it all and do it all person so I can tend to pack a heavy schedule, though I realize that isn't for everyone. On our visit to Disney World this past March I had a difficult time choosing how many parks to visit and what parks to visit. I travelled with 3 adults and a 2 year old, so as you can imagine interes

Traveling with Kids
Often times, when it comes up in conversation, people are surprised by how much I have traveled with my 2 year old and say things like "I could never do that." Its funny because I never once thought that if I took her anywhere it would be so much of a struggle it wouldn't be worth it in the end. I was actually look forward to taking her all over the world with me, and hope that in time, she will come to love globetrotting just as much as I do. The first time I traveled with h


Road Trip Edition: Iceland's Golden Circle
On my recent trip to Iceland, I spent much time researching what was a must do. Everything I could find stated that the Golden Circle was not to be missed. So we went..... We woke up early to a cloudy and drizzly Monday morning in the city of Reykjavik. I gathered everything I might need on a full day road trip through Iceland. (rain coat, sweatshirt, boots, rain boots, extra socks, hat, gloves, a head lamp, hot spot, chargers, cameras, snacks, and a water bottle) Just the da


Atlantic Ocean Villas
This past summer my boyfriend, 1 year-old daughter, and I travelled to Providenciales, Turks and Caicos for our best friend's destination wedding. The wedding took place on Beaches Resort, with a small number of guests. With a year notice we were able to save appropriately for the trip, but even with notice Beaches came in at roughly $3000pp. Once I found out the price I searched alternative options that would provide us with the accommodations we needed, but would hopefully


To cruise or not to cruise Alaska.....
In May my family and I took a cruise to Alaska. The ship left out of Vancouver and ended in Seward. Alaska is by far one of the most beautiful places I have been to. The rich beauty offered by nature is unquestionably astounding in every way. It was every bit as breathtaking as I thought it would be. The following is my list of pros and cons about traveling by cruise to Alaska. Pros: You can see a great deal of Alaska in such a short time. There is always a gorgeous backdrop


Disembarking in Seward and Why You Should Always Prearrange Transportation
On our NCL cruise through Alaska last May I stayed at Hotel Alyeska in Girdwood, AK for two nights prior to flying out of Anchorage. Not only did this hotel get amazing reviews, but it was also a halfway point between Seward and Anchorage. My plan was to grab a taxi to take me there after I disembarked, but it proved to be more challenging than I expected. When disembarking from the boat it is important to have your transportation prearranged in Alaska. I have been very spo
