We landed back in the United States at JFK on a  Monday  evening in early November.  Although we were jet lagged and exhausted, we headed to dinner with an old family friend and couldn't have been...

No matter where we're headed, or for how long, we try to apply the same packing techniques each time to limit overpacking. The main factors break down into five categories:  1. Weather  2....

The potential to see geysers, glaciers, waterfalls, and the Aurora Borealis in one trip seemed like a dream. All of that, plus a week with our friends made it a trip we couldn't skip. Unfortunately,...

The Scandinavian territories consist of Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, and Denmark. Each with their own quirks and cultural take-a-ways, but all with breath-taking views, some with the summer sun...

When we first booked our trip to South America, we knew little about Iguazu (Iguaçu in Brazilian) falls.  Like we do with every trip, we began researching our stops and quickly became excited about...

When we landed at the Charles De Gaulle airport, we located the stand down in the international terminal (after customs) and got the 4 day museum pass. They also have 2 and 6 day passes. We went with...

We are breakfast people so it's no surprise that most of our favorite places around Paris were cafés and brunch spots!  Here are a few we'd visit again.

If you've been following along with us, hopefully you'll remember that in our last post we mentioned that we have a world map full of pins for future dream vacations. Some of these pins are really...

If you've been following along with us for at least the last month, you are probably aware that we just got back from a vacation to Australia. Because of all the planning, we slacked a little on the...

It is impossible to fit in all the cities we want to visit in one trip so we tried to come up with an itinerary that flowed well, allowed for convenient train travel, and most importantly, made a...

Almost everything is closed on Christmas Day. The metro stops running early on Christmas Eve and doesn’t run on Christmas Day. Majority of the museums and monuments are closed. Many family owned...

Paris is divided into 20 arrondissements, or districts, and each one has it's own culture, style, and attractions.  A few weeks ago, we shared about our stay in the 7th Arr., which happens to house...

This was our first "toured trip" meaning we went with a guided tour company that provided everything through a package deal. We found the trip advertised on Living Social and it was through Gate1...

Chase & Dani here, providing Trip Itineraries, Travel Tips, Inspiration and Perspectives.

If you've visited us here at home (I'm talking to you, friends and family), it's pretty common to see a copy of our local in the know magazine, Austin Monthly, laying on the coffee table. It's our...

One thing we knew going into this trip was that Australia, as a whole, knows how to do Brunch and sweets. They've perfected the cronut, got just about everyone hooked on Flat Whites, and had the...

The last couple of posts have dealt with Brisbane, the little Australian city that flies under the radar.  If you haven't read about our time in Moreton Island or Brisbane, find that here:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Well, what a busy week. The first pic is of the ill fated borders. It is not a particularly good picture, but you can see how they just didn...
