For the past week or so, I’ve been watching bears in Alaska fish for salmon. I didn’t even have to leave my house thanks to Explore.org and the many webcams that they have listed. In the picture, there is only 1 bear fishing…but that picture was taken at 6:15 AM in Alaska, and most of […]
Recently I visited the Hershey Gardens, in Hershey, PA. I had never been to the gardens before, and love going to photograph flowers and other things in nature, so I was really excited about seeing the gardens. Plus…it’s my favorite time of year. Spring, when the tulips are in bloom. The tulips at the Hershey […]
On my 9-Day cruise on the Norwegian Gem last month, I was able to try a lot of different foods on the Norwegian Gem. I’d even say I ate more meals on the ship than normal, since 4 of the days were at sea – so all of my meals had to be on the […]
In December, I went on a 9-Day Eastern Caribbean Cruise out of NYC. This is the third Norwegian ship I had been on (Previously I was on the Dawn and the Sun), but since my last cruise with them was quite a few years ago, I was interested in seeing what was different. When I […]
A few days ago, I wrote about ShuttleFare, and how they make it easy to book a shuttle to get from the airport to your hotel, and then back to the airport at the end of your trip. I used ShuttleFare a little less than 2 years ago, and just wanted to share my experience […]
When flying into a big city, sometimes it can be hard to figure out how to get from the airport to your hotel, and then back to the airport. Should you take a cab? A shuttle? Should you hire a driver? Depending on the city you’re going to, there could be a huge difference in […]
Last week I came across an article on another blog, titled “Four Reasons Why I Hate Walt Disney World”. It turns out it was written in June, but I hadn’t seen it until now. When I saw the title, I was intrigued. I mean, I love Walt Disney World, and while I know that not […]
Before too long, I’ll be going to the airport for my next flight. Of course, this got me thinking about where I’ll park my car. In the past I’ve tried multiple options. I’ve parked at the airport, hired a car service, and parked at a lot near the airport. I usually travel out of Newark […]
Day 5 of the cruise brought us to Skagway, Alaska. One of the popular things to do here is to go on a Tour of the Yukon. There are 2 ways to do this – either by bus or train. We decided to do the “Discover the Yukon Adventure Tour” by bus (both ways), and […]
On day 4 of the cruise, we docked at Juneau, Alaska. We decided to do the Mendenhall Glacier & Whale Quest tour, and did the excursion through Princess. As I got off the ship and saw how many people were doing this same tour, I was worried. I couldn’t believe how many full school buses […]
