Weekend in Boston Day 3
We woke up on our last day determined to squeeze in as much as possible. We didn't get far before we hit a literal road block. There was a stunt crew from the movie Free Guy filming and had temporarily blocked the streets. Unfortunately we didn't get to see Ryan Reynolds but enjoyed watching for… Continue reading Weekend in Boston Day 3
Weekend in Boston Day 2
After a well deserved rest, we started the morning with continental breakfast at our hotel. Then started walking in the direction of the Boston Public Library, knowing we'd make multiple stops along the way. I was so pleased we walked by the Steaming Kettle in front of Starbucks, which has been operational since 1875! We… Continue reading Weekend in Boston Day 2

MSC Seaside Naming Ceremony – Day 3
Welcome back, friends! So what did I get up to on Day 3? Well, exploring the various staterooms was top of the list! My absolute favorite was the 2 bedroom / 2 bathroom Grand Suite...because of this balcony. There are only three of these suites on the ship and they are exclusively available with the… Continue reading MSC Seaside Naming Ceremony – Day 3

So I've only just realized that my Day 1 recap was December 26th! #bloggerfail! We've been enjoying the final few days of Christmas Break.

New York City August 2010
As I watched the 9/11 coverage on the news yesterday, it reminded me of a weekend trip the DH and I took to New York City in 2010; our first couple's trip since the kids were born. We'd both visited separately in our teens, but it was a refreshing perspective to see the Big Apple… Continue reading New York City August 2010
