Just the musing of a writer and traveler
I am thinking about what our vacation options are this summer. I am planning on getting a few weeks off from work and I want to be able to take a memorable vacation with the kids. I think they are getting old enough that they could remember a great vacation.
I don’t know how many times I have arrived in a new location on a travel lark and was left with finding something to do without any research beforehand or any guidebook. It never took me long to find something to do when traveling by following three simple steps.
I think the world would be such a nicer place if we could all just start doing the Papaya Dance. This dance was first popularized in a game show hosted by my personal hero, Mr Liveraid Coffeemate himself, Edu Manzano. It’s just a funky little dance that just about anyone can do. It’s hilarious to watch and even more fun to do.
To rent a car or not rent a car, that is the question. When you do a lot of traveling around and adopt a travel lifestyle, you are in constant need of transportation, both on the long and short haul. Undoubtedly having a rental car can make the your travel much simpler, but there is more to the equation then that.
There is something about the Chicago Cubs. I remember watching their games growing up on WGN. That was back in the days of superstations. There was TBS with the Braves and WGN with the Cubs. I never really like the Braves so it was Harry Carey and the Chicago Cubs. It’s the Cubs that got me to fall in love with baseball. There is just something about the game and it’s excitement. As I have gotten older, I have still kept my love of the game and my love of the Cubs.
I love taking trips to the beach. I love hanging out on the beach with a nice cold drink in hand and watching the waves splash on the shore. There is nothing quite like the relaxation of it all.
Theft can be the biggest negative when you travel. In fact, theft is one of the most things that can ruin a vacation or trip. A theft can not only leave you frightened, but it can also leave you broke, especially when it’s your traveling money that has been taken away.
