Alcohol and Flying

by Marian Krueger, in category Travel Tips

Everyone has their own opinion on whether or not you should drink while on a flight. Some people like to take the edge off with a drink or two (or three), while others do not want alcohol or anything else near them at all. Does alcohol affect you differently in the air vs. on the… Read More

Airplane Etiquette: Does It Exist?

by Marian Krueger, in category Travel Tips

When flying was first introduced to the public it was an event. Passengers would get dressed up to get on their flight and everyone was polite, friendly, and most importantly, happy. The flight itself was as important as the destination. Women were flight attendants and were called stewardesses although the first person in this job… Read More

Why Should I Use a Travel Agent?

by Marian Krueger, in category Travel Tips

There are many reasons to use a travel agent Detroit from those who refuse to book travel on the Internet or those too busy to research and book their own travel. But the biggest reason is that for travel agents, travel is their business. A knowledgeable and trustworthy travel agent will have the training to… Read More

Divorced Parents: What to Bring When Traveling with Your Children

by Marian Krueger, in category Travel Tips

There are plenty of people that I know, who have recently been divorced or have been divorced for years. I’m not going to lie to you, it was a very stressful time for most of them. Most of them had legal help as well, which I think made things a bit easier. So if you… Read More

Turn 3G off on iPhone?

by Marian Krueger, in category Travel Tips

What? Turn my iPhone off? Well, unless you want to pay ridiculous amounts for international data roaming and every time  your phone pulls emails and “push” notifications, do the following (taken from the AT&T web site): 1. Turn Data Roaming “OFF”: By default, this setting for international data roaming will be in the “OFF” position.… Read More

Printable Packing List

by Marian Krueger, in category Travel Tips

How many times have I gotten halfway to my destination and realized I forgot to pack something (i.e., contact case, glasses, saline, socks, etc.)? This has become the running joke between my husband and myself. Even though I pack in advance, I seem to forget the most important items every time. Here is one way… Read More

Happy New Year from Los Angeles! Here’s to 2021 Happy New Year from Los Angeles! Here’s to 2021 being way better than 2020. I’m planning on making the most of it. #losangeles #newyear #newyearfireworks #newyearfireworks🌌🎇🎆 #newyearfireworks2020 #buhbye2020
#TRAVEL THOUGHTS: Another beautiful day in #Califo #TRAVEL THOUGHTS: Another beautiful day in #California even when I’m at the dentist. Check out the view looking over toward Warner Bros. Studio and that mountain. You never see a view like this on the East coast.

#TRAVEL THOUGHTS: On yet another day where I can’t travel like most of you, I’m dreaming of my trip to Vietnam in August of 2019. I had such a great visit and I so miss the colors, the food, and of course, the people. What city are you reminiscing about today?

#TRAVEL/LIFE THOUGHTS: 2020 hasn’t been everyone #TRAVEL/LIFE THOUGHTS: 2020 hasn’t been everyone’s favorite year, but regardless we need to vote to have our voices heard. I felt like I was back in school reading through the huge booklets Los Angeles sends out voters, but it’s my responsibility to understand what I am voting for in this election. So many propositions and millions of dollars spent to get voters to vote a certain way. Thank God I didn’t rely on the commercials to vote because the ones with the most money shouldn’t be the ones to win. Make your voice heard and vote because every vote does count. I’m still optimistic that the political system can work and that our country can move forward. Did you vote today or are you going in person on Election Day?

Today was the first day where I could see and smell it. Smells like a campfire and the sky is just weird looking. Here’s to hoping they get it all under control soon and that everyone can be safe. And I can see sun and some blue sky again! 🌞

#TRAVEL/LIFE THOUGHTS: If you know me or follow me #TRAVEL/LIFE THOUGHTS: If you know me or follow me, you’ve probably noticed that I went from traveling and posting often to pretty much barely anything for the past two years. I’ve experienced some twists and turns on this journey we call life and that’s taken me away from what I’ve loved: My website and my love of travel. Today I am officially divorced after two years of legal procedures. I will have more on my site as I get it up and going again but first this. The long cross country drive I just took? Yeah that’s because I decided to pack up and move to Los Angeles. Got here on the 1st, promptly got a cold the next day and oh yeah - don’t know where my movers are yet with my stuff.
.
So if you’re feeling down, know that life is constantly changing and evolving. Choose wisely and you’ll be rewarded. Nothing is better than warm weather, water, and sand. (Don’t panic - I didn’t go to the #beach but this is what I’ve always thought of when I’ve thought of California.

#TRAVEL THOUGHTS: What happens when you visit Las #TRAVEL THOUGHTS: What happens when you visit Las Vegas? Do you go where you’ve already been or do you go somewhere new? I’m all for trying new things and you can imagine my surprise when I found a Jollibee here. It was inside a Seafood City, which I would never have visited as I don’t eat seafood. But Seafood City is actually a rather large Filipino market that transported me from the desert of Nevada straight back to the Philippines. They have everything and then some as well as a Red Ribbon bakery, Chow King, and of course Jollibee.how can you resist the Jollibee bee’s face?
