Where in the World is Megan?

Jul 22, 2021
Megan
As you read on my post last week, I am officially back to cruising. This time I am on my first Celebrity ship and one of their newest, the Celebrity Edge. Famous for their “magic carpet” and first American female Captain, Kate McCue and her hairless cat Bug (find her on TikTok, its worth it). This has been a cruise line my family and I have been eyeing for years.

I’m Setting Sail!

Jul 15, 2021
Megan
Come July 17th, I will be officially in my happy place; on the open ocean setting sail for a new adventure. Now that cruising is back (well sort of), my family and I could not wait to get back on board. While this may not be the make up Europe cruise, we had planned for 2020, I am just thankful to be taking my first full week vacation since 2019! It is long over do.

What to Do When An Airline Changes Your Flight

May 10, 2021
Katie
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.

Tips for Flying Budget Airlines

Apr 22, 2021
Megan
If you are anything like me, I am always looking for a deal or a way to save money while traveling. While flying is one of more expensive parts of traveling, there are still ways to save money. One of those ways is flying with a budget airline. While I do not recommend flying long haul budget flights, I do think they are a great option for short trips.

What Travel in 2020 Taught Me

Jan 4, 2021
Katie
For the last few years, I’ve kept a list on my phone of all the states and countries I went to during that year, as a nice reminder of all the new places I’ve gone. I was looking at my 2020 list, and while it is far from what I’d imagined at the beginning of the year, I realized that I still learned a lot about both the places around me and travel in general. These are the travel learnings I’m taking into the new year and moving forward.

A Look Back At 2020

Dec 31, 2020
Megan
As you have probably heard many times, 2020 was an unprecedented year. Our lives were turned upside down by the coronavirus, spending most of this year locked in our homes and away from family and friends. Travel especially was hit hard this year, and many dream vacations and trips to see loved ones were canceled with no firm rebooking timelines. However, like many people, we made lemonade out of the many lemons 2020 threw at us. Although I didn’t get my dream European cruise vacation, I was still able to make the most of my time off, traveling locally and planning trips I would have never even thought of if it wasn’t for COVID.

Our 10-Day Iceland and Ring Road Itinerary

Dec 28, 2020
Katie
My first road trip as an adult was actually in Iceland, and nothing can quite compare to that adventure! In March 2018, a small group of us decided to meet up in Reykjavik to tackle Ring Road (Route 1) in a camper van. With a lot of planning (and a lot of last-minute plan changes), we were able to see a ton of the country in just 10 days.
