Rick and I were so excited to finally, finally visit Scotland in 2023, seeing as we originally booked the trip in 2018 for a 2020 travel date! We went to Scotland on our trip to England, Scotland, and Ireland with EF Go Ahead Tours and our Scotland portion was concentrated on Edinburgh. Since this was
Things to do
Travel bucket list: Madrid
It’s official! We’re returning to Spain this year! We both fell in love with Spain when we went to Barcelona five years ago and have been working on finding the right time to return and continue our exploration of this fabulous travel destination. And we’ve found it. We’ll be back in Spain this fall and
Travel itinerary: A weekend in Paris
You have no idea how excited I was to finally take Rick to Paris, one of my favorite cities in the world! When we had planned our England, Scotland, and Ireland trip with Go Ahead, I knew we had to find a way to add a few days before the trip to visit Paris on
Nassau Rum Tasting Walking Tour review
Rick and I were so happy to find ourselves back in the Caribbean to escape the freaking polar vortex that took over Colorado in mid-January! We made a little trip down to Miami and then onboard The Freedom of the Seas to head to the Bahamas for the weekend. We’ve been to the Bahamas a
One day in Dublin
We were supposed to cross Dublin (and other places in Ireland) off our bucket list in 2020. That did not happen, but it was okay as we finally got to visit the Emerald Isle this past September when the world was back to normal. It was a whirlwind trip as we explored France, England, Scotland,

A long weekend in San Francisco
Rick and I recently had an opportunity to return to one of my favorite cities: San Francisco! I was headed there for work and was thinking about staying an extra day anyway so we decided to make a long weekend out of the trip and have Rick fly out on his own to join me.
Review: Ghost Tours of Quebec
I’m lucky my family is as weird as I am! Rick has come to love me booking ghost tours when we travel but I don’t have to convince my family to book them – they do it themselves! Since it’s spooky season, I thought it would be fun to revisit a ghost tour we did
Review: Edinburgh Doomed, Dead, and Buried tour
We’ve had Edinburgh on our travel bucket list for years now! We were supposed to go back in June 2020, but obviously that trip was canceled. So, when we knew we were going for sure this past September, I knew it was time to book a ghost tour as Edinburgh is said to be super
Review: Paris Dark City Secrets Walking Tour
It’s officially spooky season! So it’s time to talk about all things haunted and scary – and one of my favorite things to do this time of year is ghost tours! Okay, I’ll admit anytime of year is the right time of year for a ghost tour. It doesn’t take much to convince me to
