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
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
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

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
On our way into town, we stopped at Whistler Olympic Park where you can experience the biathlon, hiking, biking, and more. We only had a little time to spend so we checked out the ski jump and let the kids experience the biathlon. We had an Olympic hopeful, Hannah, instruct the kids at the shooting … Continue reading Wishing I was still in Whistler…
We had heard about the Grouse Grind from a friend who had pushed her way to the top. We spontaneously asked GG to watch the kids in the AM while Gary and I hiked straight up Grouse Mountain for approx 2 miles. Appropriately called Nature's Stairmaster...it is one way straight up, no downhill hiking due … Continue reading Grueling Grouse Grind
We decided to wake up slowly on Saturday as we had already had a couple of long days. that being said, we were ready to go around 9 am so we set out to find some breakfast. We had mentioned donuts to the kids, so of course, they said yes! Well, easier said than done. … Continue reading Stanley Park, Suspension Bridge, and more!
In planning for our Canadian adventure, we chatted with friends and acquaintances about what they would recommend while in Vancouver. No lie, everyone said that we had to make it over to Victoria. Okay, so we planned a day in Victoria. What I didn't know is what all we had to plan to get there. … Continue reading Victoria, British Columbia
