May 20, 2023 We have been in this area of the state many times but it just never gets old and we find ourselves returning frequently. About seven years ago while traveling with our motorhome we made reservations at the Lake Lodge Inn restaurant that was at the time, highly rated. When I walked in … More Lake Lure, North Carolina
August 21-25, 2021 Two things we have learned traveling with our motorhome; to be flexible and not to play chicken with Mother Nature. Our original plan was to continue on to Lubec, Maine after Bar Harbor and visit the eastern most point in the U.S. home to Quoddy lighthouse where you can witness the very … More Lake Champlain, Vermont
August 13-21 2021 It has taken me a long time to write this post but life gets in the way, and in our case its been all good things so I’m not complaining.

February 25- March 3, 2021 It has been a very challenging year for many people and the inability to travel seems trivial compared to the many challenges people have had to endure this past year. Having said that, traveling is one of the things Leo and I particularly love doing. So it was with great … More Lake Havasu, Arizona
August 21-22, 2019 The next port of call during our Viking Homelands Cruise was one that both Leo and I had been looking forward to with great anticipation. St Petersburg, Russia was one of, if not the highlight of this trip. There are visa requirements if you want to tour the city on your … More St Petersburg, Russia
August 19-20, 2019 Traveling always has the potential for surprises, especially due to the unpredictable nature of sea conditions while you are on a cruise ship. We have experienced this many times in our travels, so we didn’t blink an eye when during our Viking Homelands ocean cruise, the captain announced the night before that … More Gdańsk, Poland, a day at sea and Tallinn, Estonia
H August 17, 2019 Leo and I have visited Germany many times but circumstances have always made us miss seeing Berlin, so it was very exciting to us that the Viking Homelands cruise itinerary included a day stop in this historical city. It was especially exciting for Leo as he is somewhat of a WWII … More One day in Berlin
August 15-16 2019 This is a continuation of our Vikings Homeland Cruise on the Viking ocean cruise ship, The Jupiter.
