Tombstone, Arizona
Like so many of us of a certain age, we grew up with strains of the Wild West playing in the background. The streets of Tombstone, Wyatt Earp, Doc Holiday, the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral and other legends played on the television screens in our living rooms. Thus...

OUR VERY
LATEST
Exploring the Allure of the Seas
Once the largest cruise ship in the world, Allure of the Seas will be our home for the next seven nights as we cruise the Western Mediterranean and explore the eighteen decks of this behemoth.
Half a Day in Rome
Our recent travel misadventures seriously curtailed our time in Rome pre-cruise but we did get to visit the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel before making the trip to Civitavecchi for an overnight in the port city of Rome preparatory to departing on Allure of the Seas tomorrow.
To Rome But Not According to Plan
Travel plans sometimes go awry. In this case flooding near Milan caused our train trip to be interrupted leading to one Flix Bus journey, three taxi rides, an overnight stay in Milan, and an airline flight to arrive in Rome more than 24 hours later than planned. Not exactly the adventure we had planned but giving us yet another campfire story!
