Bisbee, Arizona is a popular place for a day trip or weekend getaway, located just 90 miles Southeast of Tucson. Founded in 1880, Bisbee quickly boomed as a result of its Copper Mining industry, and once the mine ceased operations in 1975, became an historic tourist destination that has become increasingly popular in recent years….

4 Days in San Francisco
San Francisco is one of those cities that all Americans should visit at least once. Such an iconic city with so much to do and see! I know the homelessness problem has gotten worse in the past few years, but it’s actually not even in the top 5 cities in the US with the biggest…
3 Days in Chicago
Living in Upper Michigan and Minnesota for my first 40 years, Chicago was the biggest city that was within driving distance, making it a great long-weekend destination. There is such a wide variety of things to do in Chicago, from museums, to sporting events, to water sports, and great shopping! This itinerary assumes it’s not…
A Week in Paris
Following my last post on Two Days in Paris with Kids, here is a longer itinerary more tailored for the adults! All of the main attractions are in this itinerary as well (Eiffel Tower, The Louvre, Notre Dame, etc.), but I’ve also included a couple of day tours to Normandy and Reims (champagne region). As…
2 Days in Paris with Kids
If you’re planning a European vacation with kids (I’d suggest age 8 or older for the best experience), Paris should be on your list. When my kids were 12 and 15, we did our first family vacation to Europe with them…starting in London, then Paris, Venice, and Rome. Ten days in total. Since we were…

3 Days in Prague, Czech Republic
Prague is one of those cities that I’d been wanting to visit for quite some time, so when we were booking our trip to Germany and Austria last summer, the Czech Republic was a natural fit with our itinerary! We spent 3 days in Munich, 3 days in Salzburg, and then 3 days in Prague….
3 Days in Salzburg, Austria
Salzburg is one of my new favorite European destinations. So picturesque, and small enough that you can walk everywhere. We visited this past summer as part of my son’s graduation trip and we all loved it! We sandwiched three days in Salzburg between Munich and Prague, which makes for a great European itinerary if you…
3 Days in Munich, Germany
When I asked my son where he would like to go in Europe for his High School Graduation trip, he replied with “somewhere I can see views and drink beer”…so, Germany it was! We did a trip in early summer 2023 with my two kids that were 18 and 21 at the time (younger kids…
A Week in the Cayman Islands
In my opinion, 7 Mile Beach on Grand Cayman Island is THE most beautiful beach (at least of the ones that I have seen), and the Caymans have some of the best snorkeling and SCUBA diving in the world. On top of it’s beauty, the Caymans are also one of the safest places to visit…
