Like so many of us, we took a travel hiatus due to the craziness of the last 2 years. We planned to travel to Switzerland during the summer of 2020 and you know how that ended...CANCELLED. Then we ambitiously booked it again for the summer of 2021... and CANCELLED again! The third time is a … Continue reading Swiss Summer
I try to get back to New Orleans as often as I can. I lived there from when I was two to when I left for college. It is always fun to get back to see friends and enjoy the unique history and architecture of the Big Easy! When I go back, it is usually … Continue reading NOLA
Mission Bay Sportcenter was just across the bay from our rental house. We decided to rent a pontoon boat for our crew. We picked it up and drove it around the bay for a couple hours. It was a nice relaxing end to our day.
One area we wanted to spend more time in was La Jolla. I booked a kayak tour through Everyday California to explore the La Jolla Sea Caves. We had terrific tour guides and really enjoyed being out in the ocean. Check out their Instagram @everydaycalifornia for the latest info! Post kayak tour, our tummies were … Continue reading A Day in La Jolla
In addition to beach time, we knew we had to hit up Legoland, California! With two huge Lego fans, it was a no-brainer. There was a new Deep Sea Adventure ride that we had to check out. And of course, we couldn't miss Miniland, the WaterPark, StarWars, and Heartlake City! We spent the whole … Continue reading Legoland, California
San Diego was introduced to us in 2016, so when there was talk about heading back there this summer, we were all in! We stayed in the same HomeAway this year because you can't find a better location! It is on Mission Bay and a few steps from the ocean side. The bay is quiet … Continue reading San Diego Sunshine
Our flight was late in the day, so we took advantage and checked out the Museum of Flight on the way to the airport. We got to board Airforce One, a 747, a 787, the Concorde, and more! It was a great ending to our trip!
While traveling, we were averaging 10 miles of walking a day! The kids have a Vivofit Jr. that tracks their steps, GG's been checking her Apple Watch, and I've been reviewing my iPhone Health App...we compared notes and were all pretty close to one another. We've been covering a lot of ground. We had checked … Continue reading Sightseeing around Seattle
The Ballard Locks had been recommended to us by an Austinite who grew up in Seattle. It really is fascinating. The Locks connect the fresh water and salt water and allow boats to go back and forth. The water levels have to rise and lower depending on which way the boats are headed. We saw … Continue reading Ballard Locks {Seattle}
Woke up in Whistler, BC and went to bed in Seattle, Washington. Rise and shine...we woke up in Whistler and knew we wanted to experience a little more of what Whistler had to offer. We went on an approx 3-mile pre-breakfast walk around Lost Lake which had a fantastic view from the dock. The Tiny … Continue reading Whistler & Seattle
