As excited as we were about seeing Elsa and Anna, we couldn’t shake the feeling that something was very wrong. Standing in line was a large, single, heavy set man with thick, dark rimmed glasses, brown hair and a fishing hat that blocked most of his face. He was fidgeting and kept his phone upright at all times. He...
After spending five days solely at the Gran Caribe All-Inclusive Family Resort, we were ready for something other than virgin margaritas in every possible flavor and swimming 18 hours a day. We decided to rent a car, which was delivered to us at the resort, and travel through the Mexican Riviera. At least as far as we could reasonably...
Let's just call Castaway Cay what it is. Castaway Cay is Treasure Island.

Port Stop: Castaway Cay, Bahamas
Excursion: N/A
We anticipated visiting Castaway Cay from the moment we knew it existed. We have a long history of crossing Disney parks and experiences off our bucket list and Castaway Cay was no exception. We booked a cruise...
There is a reason people talk ad nauseum about Costa Rica. It is stunning, it is beautiful, it is peaceful, and it is breathtaking. But, it is also none of those things because the English language cannot capture what Costa Rica contains within its boundaries. One thing is for sure, Costa Rica is a playground for the adventurous, young...
Boston is one of the most easily navigable cities we’ve ever been to. The T system covers a lot of ground, hits all the major points of interest and is conveniently accessible. With parking rates so high in the city coupled with the many attractions around every corner in Boston, in only makes sense to skip the car rental...
Is it just me, or is finding a good place to eat one of the hardest things to do when you are on vacation? Trying to find one that is organic or vegetarian and you can fuggetaboutit. But then, like hot sauce to a taco, every once in a while a trusted friend will make a recommendation to the...
One of the stops during our guided tour with Alma’s LDS Tours was the cenote Ik Kil, even though our time was short. We spent a long time at Ek Balam and Chichen Itza with no complaints. The fascination of these ruins were too compelling to tear ourselves away, so we had just 30 minutes to spend the last...
We’ve been visiting Walt Disney World annually since 2010, and in all those years we’ve never once stayed off property. When you stay on property, the magic begins the second you step off the plane into the Orlando airport. Mickey and his Magical Express picks you up and whisks you away to your resort. You stay on a magical...
Our family trip to Norway was one of those standby adventures gone wrong, but one we probably should have known better to anticipate. I was stressed for weeks leading up to this vacation. We had three flights to take after disembarking the Disney Wonder cruise ship, and making our way to our Christmas destination in Norway. That meant three...
With the exception of our two night Hurtigruten Cruise we spent a huge majority of our time eating items from the local 7-11, or Norwegian equivalent Narvesen, during our two week Christmas trip to Norway.
We found all the best Norwegian Candy, and not because we love "food-like" items that never have an expiration date, but because most of...
