Are you as annoyed as I am with these astronomical flight and hotel prices? I sure miss the “good ole’ days” when a family of four could flee to Mexico for under a grand. While I’m still coming to terms with saying adios to yummy shrimp tacos at the swim-up bar, I’m going to take …
After our bones felt record freezing temps at the Munich Christmas Markets (cold enough to close the airport for days!), I now know how to keep our little ones warm. Properly.

We finally attempted the highly sought-after Angel’s Landing hike in Zion National Park with our baby in 2019. Only to turn around an hour later as the temperature was climbing faster than we could, and our one-year-old was overheating in the carrier. Babies and toddlers are prone to suffer from heat stroke and dehydration faster …
Oh really? You confirmed twice with the shuttle driver, in writing and over the phone, that he will have a car seat ready in the car for your little one? Oh, and he said “Yes, confirmed”? Oh, did he? And then showed up empty-freakin’-handed…?!?! Believe it. It happened on our first big trip from San …
I’m dumbfounded as to why the Dolomites don’t get more hype. If it weren’t for my screensaver, I never would have known this beauty was out there. But I’m not complaining.
