Hello! I would like to move to a clean, secure and calm beach town with mild, rainy climate, perfectly accessible for wind and not surrounded by mountains. Currently, I am choosing between Biarritz/Bayonne, La Rochelle, Normandie (Le Havre/Rennes/etc.) and Bretagne (Saint-Malo/etc.). I would highly appreciate your recommendations and opinions on th...

We are planning a cross country drive this fall with stops in Colorado, Utah, and maybe Nevada for some sight seeing and short hikes. I would love some help with our plan. We are a senior couple. We enjoy visiting parks with good scenery and good easy hikes. Also love museum browsing, but with Covid, museums will not be on our itinerary this tri... Read More

Hi Everyone, Wife and myself are planning our 1st trip to GTNP & Yellowstone in the last week of August and would need some help with the itinerary. We are definitely more interested in viewing wildlife and hiking is not necessarily a must do activity in this trip. None of the booking reservations are made and are completely flexible. Our curren... Read More

We will be driving back from Polson, Montana to Colorado early September. On the way there we will spend a few nights in Ennis, Montana for fishing and hiking. Thought we'd like to take a different route home. We have been to Yellowstone a couple of times, Targhee and Jackson, Wyoming. So, we were thinking of maybe eastern Idaho, we have been to Id...

I'm coming from Long Island and would like to meet a family member in Westchester but near 684. Does anyone know of some parks or outdoor space we could meet? We are hyper careful in my house and will bring my own chairs and masks, of course. Funny to be asking this very local question. Hopefully some day I could ask for recommendations for pa...

I will be flying from Ottawa to London next month with Air Canada. I have decided to book a separate ticket with Icelandair from London to Reykjavik. I will have 5-6 hours in between.

So far this year, we have had to cancel a UK trip, and then a Disney. We do have a longer trip to Cedar Point in Ohio scheduled for the end of August, and we'll see how that goes. In the meantime, we have spontaneously (very) decided to hop off to Lancaster, PA. My husband took off work for tomorrow, since my son and I already had it off, and w... Read More

We are renting an AirBnb for 9 days in Estes Park CO. We plan to mostly cook our meals, but wonder if there is any good local food/carry-out that are "musts". As an example, when we go up to Minnesota, there is a local restaurant that serves chicken that is a "must" to take out every trip. There might be a great burger joint, pizza, barbeque. J...

Governor Ige just announced that the mandatory 14-day quarantine for anyone arriving in Hawaii (including returning residents) will be extended through the end of August. The economy is being devastated, but with only (9) ICU beds on Kauai (where I live) they have to be exceptionally careful to not overwhelm the healthcare system. I wish I had... Read More

Has anyone... Read More

We booked a trip of a lifetime with our teenagers to fly to SFO on 16th October this year and do a Cali road trip. I'm currently finding travel advice tricky to understand regarding the USA. Am I right in thinking, that unless President Trump removes his latest 'proclamation?' that we will be unable to apply for an ESTA and indeed, not be all... Read More

Following the disappointment of cancelling our trip to France and the subsequent lockdown, we were delighted when our Premier opened up the state ( Queensland ) for travel within the state. This was earlier than anticipated and with borders still closed to other states, it was a good time to head out to Western Queensland and see places we have hea... Read More

We are planning to bring our 75 pounds Goldie with us to Switzerland from San Francisco Bay Area next spring for an extended stay, when things settle down a bit. We hope. I would like to hear from anyone with first hand experience flying with a large animal. Once we are there we should be fine, just the trek getting there seems a little daunting.... Read More

"ISTANBUL — President Recep Tayyip Erdogan issued a decree Friday ordering Hagia Sophia to be opened for Muslim prayers, an action likely to provoke international furor around a World Heritage Site cherished by Christians and Muslims alike for its religious significance, stunning structure and as a symbol of conquest."

A Road Trip- DC to Upstate NY This trip fell into our lap. My nephew was leaving his house he had SiP for ~4 months and we could stay there before his summer rentals began. As much as I missed travel itself, I had found that I also missed the researching and planning so was very happ... Read More
