I slept in a Chimney.
Well, well Yotel!
Planes and fun. Perfect day out for us. But, how about a seaplane? Whoo!
Celebrate your freedom. Your fifth freedom.
Let's face it. Almost every male is lazy in one aspect or another. Maybe it's hygiene. Maybe it's remembering anniversaries. Or maybe it's simply a matter of reaching that age where it could be all three, combined. But this post is focused on the lazy aspect. Except that this lazy…
No matter where you go, there you are.
Hopefully you won’t mind if we rail on a bit about rail. Get it?
This isn’t just a train ride, it’s your chance to intimately experience the heart and soul of Canada. So go ahead, pack your bags and rail away!
Meet Bangkok Airways. You can check out any time you’d like, but you can never leave. You won’t want to!
OK, you two. No Canoodling.
Pity the poor British people who, while having a lovely, historic and diverse place to live, also have the agonizing problem of deciding which sunny location they should turn to in order to rent or purchase a sunny spot to escape the grey and unpleasant weather that is a major part of their everyday lives.…
Yes, it probably seems like an odd title for a post, because we, too, wondered about how many beaches there are in Riga. From our fuzzy memories, we seem to recall Riga as being landlocked and in some ways, forlorn and forgotten. But, as you'll - and as we discovered, Latvia offers way…
We would guess that many of us - perhaps even most of us - will skip buying travel insurance when we go. You look at the offers, weigh the plusses and minuses and then either hope for the best, or trust that, perhaps, our credit cards will have the necessary coverage in case of…
Do we ever run out of things to do in Europe? No, not likely. Even when you have haunted the same tourist traps over and over again, you'll walk around the corner and a new and delightful activity will jump out into your path. And so many of these things to do…
For many decades, hunting wild animals was "the thing to do" if you considered yourself as a "sportsman." Never mind that dozens of species were dying out because of the "sport." Luckily, many more forward thinking people realised that hunting was not sustainable. The most significant criticism revolved around the impact on…
Perusing YouTube today, we landed on a video about the UK hotel chain Britannia hotels. After a little digging, we discovered that there were quite a few reviews, and - at least as the YouTube reviews went, things were not looking good. In fact, some of what was discovered by the YouTube sleuths, the…
The ever humorous Douglas Adams always knew how to turn a phrase. He wrote The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy that sold more than 15 million copies in his lifetime. Given the nature of that book, we're sure he would laugh with us at the irony of it all. As he quoted, “I…
There are lots of airlines out there in the world, waiting to handle your travel business. And, considering that they're in the business of making money on your travel, they have to be good, otherwise you'll take your business elsewhere, right? This may seem a bit shocking (it was to us) but who do…
We’re excited to announce the launch of the European Sleeper Train on Omio! This new overnight train service connects the continental hotspots of Brussels, Amsterdam, Berlin, and Prague. To celebrate a new eco-friendly way to see the continent, OMIO is releasing a new discount code that’s valid on any international train (or bus or ferry)…
