SHARE THE EXPERIENCE

Relaxing on the beach lounger, book in hand watching the grandchildren play in the sand. Their parents are soaking in the infinity pool looking relaxed. Share the experience of family travel with the entire family. Make new memories that everyone will cherish for a lifetime. Embark on a new authentic cultural experience together and learn about the traditions of the location. Learn the drums of Reggae perhaps.

NEW TRAVEL TRENDS

Does this sound like a common thought for you ….well I have to work from home, my kids have to attend school from home, we can do this just about anywhere…..Why not do a #workcation? Then we can enjoy a destination on the off hours, have a gorgeous view on the other side of your laptop and gorgeous weather. This is one of the new travel trends.

AIRLINE CHANGE FEES

airline change fees

Hurray, the airlines are cancelling the change fees on flights. Sounds fantastic right? But are there loopholes in this? Prior to the pandemic Southwest was the only US airline that didn’t charge change fees. Most of the airlines charged $200 for domestic flights when changing nonrefundable tickets on top of the price difference for the new tickets.

Vienna, Austria

Jamaica is more than beaches. I visited Montego Bay, Jamaica in 2011. Wow, has it been that long already? We all know that Jamaica is known for its great beaches and tropical sunsets, but there is a lot more to do than go to the beach. Although this is a great way to spend a vacation, some people want to be able to do a little more and see Jamaica and all the things that it has to offer. Here is a list of some of the most amazing things to do in Jamaica that don’t involve sitting on the beach and catching some rays.

NOT TO MISS WHEN IN VIENNA

I visited Vienna in 2019 on a tour of Eastern Europe. Austria borders Eastern Europe. Vienna is a shining city that indeed emphasizes its history as you will tell by many of its attractions. Visiting the city is such a unique, memorable experience that you’ll likely want to come back time and time again. With so much to explore in Vienna, it’s nearly impossible to find yourself bored, especially if you love a lively culture that treasures art, great food, classical music, and beautiful architecture. So, before you plan your trip, what’s not to miss when in Vienna?

NEW ENGLAND LIGHTHOUSES

Across 6000 miles of coastline, there are still over 200 New England Lighthouses. Not only are they amazingly beautiful, but they provide a service to sailors to keep them from the jagged rocky areas. They are lifesavers to those who need them. They vary in size, shape and colors.
