The only airline I found with a nonstop flight to Bangor was Allegiant. It’s a no frills airline with tiny seats and not much legroom. If you are on the larger side these seats just won’t do. Michael picked us up at the airport, and we had lunch at Dysart’s. Dysart’s is at the truckContinue reading “A Trip To Maine”

What a way to spend Father’s Day. A day at the beach with our 16-year-old granddaughter Kadyn. The surfs up and Kadyn and PopPop went boogey boarding. I spent most of the time on the lounge chair! The surf was a little too rough for me. But Pop Pop joined me as we watched theContinue reading “Father’s Day”

I travel a lot – probably six months of the year give or take. But when I’m home, its like being on vacation. Today I’m sitting on Delray Beach. We have a senior parking permit that lets us park on A1A and the beach lots. For one year it costs $101.25. We also have anContinue reading “Home is A Vacation Place to Many Folks”

I have to say this is one of my favorite ports. It’s friendly and offers lots of different adventures. Previously we explored the island with a really nice taxi driver. Last time we snorkeled with turtles at the Turtle Sanctuary. This time we snorkeled from a dive shop a short walk from the port. ThereContinue reading “Fun in Grand Cayman”

I know very little about Cozumel. I thought it was another beach town like Cancun but it’s actually an island. We decided to take a ship tour, which we rarely do. It wasn’t costly and took us to some Mayan ruins and the beach. Of course, it was a lot of people on the busContinue reading “Our First Time on Cozumel”

We just got back from a month-long trip and cruise from Europe and are now heading out for a seven-day Caribbean cruise. We will be cruising on Celebrity Beyond, one of the newer ships. Our ports of call are Perfect Day at CocoCay, Jamaica, Cozumel, and Grand Cayman. Cozumel is new for us. We tookContinue reading “Here We Go Again!”

When I’m home, not traveling the world on planes, trains and ships, I live in a place that people go to for vacation. Delray Beach is ranked one of the top beaches in Florida and in the country. Pristine water, clean white sand, and usually the absence of sharks make it a great destination. InContinue reading “My Favorite Place”

I miss my mom! She’s been gone since 2011, but I can still hear her words of wisdom in my head. She was kind. The sort of person who never said a bad word about anyone! Even when they deserved it. I remember my two sisters and I saying not-so-nice things about some woman. MyContinue reading “Mother’s Day”

It’s been quite a journey and one we thought we would miss. I had heart surgery in early March and Bruce was hospitalized for bleeding ulcers the day we were to start this venture. But as soon as we received oks from the doctors, I devised a new plan and we were off. If youContinue reading “Going Home”

We arrived in Las Palmas, Gran Canaria, at 8 a.m., but true to ourselves, we didn’t wake until then. The port isn’t as pretty as Tenerife, but the city is a short walk away. Several military vessels were outside our balcony. As we walked to town there were many welcoming signs. Our first stop wasContinue reading “Our Last Port Before 8 Days on The Atlantic”
