A Three Day Itinerary We trained what felt like every ounce of Kyoto. We thought we had become masters of the Japanese train system by day six. I had come a long way since the train meltdown in Osaka. We made JR Pass day trips to Arashiyama and Nara. But holy Shinkansen, we were not …

Travel: New York, New York

Travel: Park City, Utah
We’re about six years into our adventure out west. I think I’ve made it abundantly clear how much we like skiing and playing in the fun winter weather. Chris and I had never really experienced it growing up Florida style. The boys have grown up with it and can’t imagine not having it. We’ve been …

Sanibel Island: Salty Air and Sunshine
You have probably noticed a theme to my vacation style by now. I love the beach. I love the mountains, and I’ve been a lucky enough girl to have the best of them all. Spring is showing tiny signs that its not to far off, but I have been hiding in my igloo the past …
