Back in June of 2020 we had to cancel our big Europe trip that we had been planning since 2019 and it wasn’t fun saying goodbye to all those travel plans but there was no way around it with COVID-19 raging the way it was and we had to pull our weight to stop the

Skuggi Hotel in Reykjavik review
When Rick and I were in Iceland, we spent a night at the beginning of our trip and end of our trip in Reykjavik – and stayed at the same hotel for both nights, the Skuggi Hotel by Keahotels. This three-star, modern hotel was a great option for our stay as it was centrally located,

Sandals South Coast review
Last April, Rick and I went to Jamaica for a great getaway and selected an all-inclusive Sandals Resort – Sandals South Coast (was called Whitehouse when we booked) for our trip.
