Are Paddywagon Tours Good?

Since Tyler and I have both been to Ireland before, we’ve had family come to us for advice on what to do while there. I was just talking to my mom and sister about how they could make Dublin their home base while still seeing some more of what Ireland has to offer. My answer: Paddywagon Tours.

Our 7-Night Mediterranean Honeymoon

As Megan wrote recently, cruising is back! That, combined with our upcoming anniversary trip, got me thinking about our honeymoon. We did a 7-night cruise through the Mediterranean on Royal Caribbean’s Rhapsody of the Seas. Our honeymoon at sea was equal parts active and relaxing - just what we wanted. We loved that it gave us a glimpse of several new spots.

We’re Going to Ireland!

Ireland was the first international trip that Tyler and I took together. We flew to Dublin in December 2016, spending a week there before making it home just in time to celebrate the holidays - unlike subsequent years. We stayed in a tiny hotel on the “wrong” side of the river, but we had the week to explore and fall in love with the country; I swore I’d be back soon.

What to Do When An Airline Changes Your Flight

Our research and trip almost came to a halt when I got the email two weeks ago that the airline had changed our flights. Every single leg of our trip had changed, and we lost several hours in San Francisco - while gaining several hours on a layover in LAX. We had to decide what to do, figuring we had three options to choose from.

Where to Go to See Van Gogh

Emily in Paris has highlighted some really cool must-dos - like the immersive Van Gogh experience she attends in the first season. So when I saw that Van Gogh Alive had extended its stay at The Dalí, I knew I had to jump on it. I booked tickets several months ago for my husband and I to soak in the exhibit, and we finally went last week.

Salt Lake City Must-Do: Dreamscapes

We fit a lot of great times into this long weekend trip, but the best part was definitely Dreamscapes. Known as “Salt Lake City’s Immersive Art Experience,” it's a museum that features upcycled art created by local artists. Sara had discovered it in her research, and we knew we had to go. Laid out like a maze, the museum offers all sorts of funky vibes and cool experiences along the way!

That Time When… I Fell on a Cactus

We had to hustle over to Brown's Mountain after her shift to make sure we had time to get up to the top and back before sunset. Our timing was slightly off, so it was darker than we would have liked as we made our way back down the mountain. This, combined with my knack for falling, had unfortunate results.
