2018-A Year in Review
I love looking back at all our travels from the year and 2018 turned out to be a great travel year, with lots of last minute bookings! We visited 5 countries (Mexico twice) and 10 US States. Last year, we saved…
Oklahoma City With Kids
Our last trip of 2018 was OKC! Milana is on a quest to visit all 50 states and this was state number 20 for her. Dave and I have visited 49 (missing Alaska) and she wants to do that one together…
Things To Do In Orange County, CA Besides Disneyland
When most people think of Orange County, the first thing that comes to mind is Disneyland, and really it’s the reason many visit in the first place. While San Diego and Los Angeles are popular with tourists, the OC seems be…

Every Thanksgiving week, we travel outside of the US. It’s one of the best and cheapest weeks to leave the country and go to a place that doesn’t celebrate. Last year we went to Taipei, this year to Hong Kong. We…

Coastal Oregon With Kids
In early August, Milana and I took a trip to coastal Oregon. We flew Southwest from LGB to PDX (points and companion pass) making our flight just $11.20 (taxes). This was a mom/daughter trip and we had a blast exploring the…
