Cleveland rocks! (It really does)
Just before school started again we decided to try to get one last trip in. We looked on our list for something relatively affordable that we could drive to and so Cleveland was the winner. At around 8 hours’ drive it wasn’t too much of a drive for us and got there just after lunch.…

VT in Spring!

London Town adventures!
It’s our first international trip! Going in we knew London was going to be a walking/sightseeing type of trip so there were a few things we got in order before we left. After 8 days, I have to say, great city but exhausted! 15-20,000 steps a day…We were glad we wore good sneakers 🙂 Prep…

It’s been a while…
So, it has been some time since our last “iconic hotel” trip. The second half of the 2023 was of course the beginning of the school year and then the holidays snuck right up on us. During that time though I have been working on this year’s trips and they are going to be awesome!…
