The first thing I did after getting settled in my room was to go straight back out. Though I didn’t want to pay the entry fee last time, this time I made it a point to head into the Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area. Location The Red Rock Canyon National Conservation Area is a […]

Happy Wednesday to all of our travel friends, both near and far! Here are some articles we’ve read from other bloggers (and other sources) that we think you may like, as well, so we’re passing them along. Ben (Lucky) from One Mile At A Time wrote about…

After our post-hike treat at Salt & Straw, headed to a light lunch at Boudin. Then, I wanted to get a view of the Oakland Bay Bridge, and the best way to do that is visiting San Francisco’s Treasure Island. Boudin I like Boudin’s sourdough bread, so why not give their restaurant a try? Well, […]

A total solar eclipse is an amazing sight. Last week a large portion of Chile was treated to that experience on the ground, but a few lucky passengers got something better: A view of the eclipse from the sky.

New York City has a lot of cool, old buildings that go as far back as 1652, and I personally love to find pictures of what they looked like when they were being built (well, maybe not the one from 1652 LOL), or were still very new. I enjoy seeing how t…

It is a train that, for a good portion of its route, rides on a ferry. If that’s not enough reason to convince you to take the trip then the rest of this story probably won’t help much. But it is an awesome ride and it will soon disappear forever. This…

Whether you fly once a week or once every few years, chances are you’ve experienced or at least seen “that guy” or “that gal” on the plane who doesn’t think about anyone but him/herself and his/her own needs. The one…

If you love to travel, chances are you have a little something from most places you’ve visited, just to remind you of your trip. A T-shirt. A piece of jewelry. Rocks. What I lovingly call “paper poop” (tickets, receipts, etc.) Here ar…

Mrs. J took two years off from diving. However, she dusted off the old GoPro for some scuba diving in the Maldives. While she opted out of the shark dive at the Equator, she enjoyed a dive on a reef shelf and one in a coral garden. Here are a couple of her GoPro Hero […]

How do you get one of the largest tourist attractions in a city to yourself? In the case of Sarajevo’s 1984 Olympics Bobsled Track the answer is easy: Go at sunrise in the middle of the winter. Having just completed such a visit I cannot recommend enou…

Airplane food is nothing like it was in days gone by, but it’s still something we (kinda sorta, sometimes) enjoy. Maybe it’s because it’s a welcome break while spending hours on the plane, or because it’s food you won’t fi…

On my final day in Utah, I took advantage of the fact that my conference sessions took up only half the day and headed out to the Bonneville Salt Flats International Speedway. I’m an aviation geek and a railfan, but I’m also a car guy. So, aside from visiting Golden Spike National Historic Site, visiting […]

The Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport (MSY) is a lot like most other airports. I mean, it’s got planes. And restaurants. And places to shop. But it’s got one thing going on right now that I don’t think you can see or d…

Why Reno for the day? It turns out I have a hard time resisting JetBlue’s $31 Halloween fare sales. And this year’s iteration allowed for travel on the surrounding dates, not just October 31st. I was going to be in Long Beach, CA with nothing firm on m…

Call it the CSeries with a new paint job if you will, but Airbus unveiled the new branding for the A220 line this week in Toulouse and it is a pretty darn nice looking aircraft. Here are some photos from the unveiling at Toulouse on Tuesday.

Disney’s River Country opened in June 1976. Fashioned with an “ol’ swimmin’ hole” theme, it was Walt Disney World’s (WDW’s) first water park. Housed at the far end of Fort Wilderness, not far from Pioneer Hall and just steps away from the current-day Mickey’s Backyard BBQ, it featured a lake with a sandy bottom and … Continue reading “The Past, Present & Future Of Disney’s River Country (In Photo & Video)”

Joe and I love Japan. I’ve been there 4 times and Joe 3, and we’re looking at 2020 for our 5th/4th visit. Now, if there’s one thing we can count on from Japan, it’s its quirkiness or even, if you’ll forgive us, its weirdness. Cuz really…for every charming thing like Hayao Miyazaki films, or amazingly … Continue reading “Exploring The Wacky Toilets of Japan, All In One Place!”
