Travel Inspiration Thursday!

New Zealand! So much to do and see on this beautiful island country. We visited Wellington (at the bottom of the North Island) and Queenstown (South Island) in the month of March. Great time to visit.

Queenstown has the best scenery almost anywhere I would argue.

We visited the mystical Doubtful Sound and then traveled through gorgeous mountain passes on the way to Milford Sound, where we spent the night on a boat.

If you like the outdoors and beautiful scenery - New Zealand is the place for you!

March Travel Inspiration Thursday!

March is an excellent time to visit Australia. It is the start of their fall, and the weather was excellent. Australia is huge, so obviously lots to cover here. Today, I will mention Canberra, the countries capital. Definitely doesn't get the foot traffic as other parts of Australia, but it is a wonderful city with lots to see and do! We happened to be there during their annual Canberra Balloon Spectacular which was beautiful. We also learned about their government and toured the Parliament houses. Similar to our nation's capital, they have war memorials and such to visit as well. Another highlight was the wine tour we took, as Australia makes some delicious wines.

Don't overlook Canberra when you visit Australia!

February Travel Thursday Inspiration

How about a day trip to Tivoli from Rome? Only about 1 hour away, this beautiful city has a lot to offer away from the more crowded streets of Rome.
This hill town is a maze of medieval streets and alleyways and is fun to explore.
One of the draws of the city is visiting Villa d'Este (pictured here) - a 16th century villa that you could spend hours wandering.
Consider Tivoli as a day trip from Rome - or spend the night to get even more out of this gem of a city.

Travel Inspiration Thursday!

Can you tell we live in a winter climate? A lot of posts this month have been warm weather get aways - this weeks feature is Cancun, Mexico!

We went as a family and stayed at the Seadust Family Resort. It was a great affordable all inclusive resort that worked great for our family. The room was spacious and the boys loved the bunk bed feature. The food was what you would expect for an AI, but had lots of choices and the drinks were great. The boys couldn’t get enough of the twin water slides and zipline onsite.

A highlight of the trip was a day at X’caret. We made a beeline to the underground rivers and caves when we first arrived and were rewarded with a very secluded experience.

Another highlight was renting a boat and going to Isla Mujeres. We explored the town on golf cart and then the boat docked offshore shore and we enjoyed the gorgeous turquoise waters.

Cancun makes a great family getaway to escape winter weather! Consider it for your next trip.

Travel Inspiration Thursday!

Japan in February - a great place in the winter! February is when the plum blossoms bloom, almost as pretty as the sakura (cherry) trees in the spring.
February is a great time to head to Nagano - the castle is magnificent, and the snow monkey's are enjoying the onsens this time of year. Skiing is amazing in this area as well, some of the best in the world.

Follow me for more Travel Inspiration, and contact me for information on how I can plan your next vacation.

It is a dark, dreary cold day here, so for today's Travel Inspiration Thursday, lets go somewhere warm! We visited in February and it was lovely escape from the cold.

The beautiful island of Palau is in the South Pacific and is a divers dream! Small islands, reefs and diverse culture make this a true island paradise. Something unique is Jellyfish Lake, full of nonstinging jellyfish that you swim right through!

Don't sleep on this slightly less traveled paradise destination.

Travel Inspiration Thursday!

It's back, and this time I will focus on places I have visited in the month we are in. So.... January - where else to go but a beautiful island. This is Saipan, one of the Northern Mariana Islands in the Western Pacific and is a U.S. Territory.

It was amazing, and some of the best snorkeling I have done. Along with all the sea life, there is also sunken WWII boats and airplanes. We did a bike tour of the island, visiting the Blue Grotto and other important historic places.

If you get a chance - don't sleep on this gorgeous island - full of history and fun in the sun!

Spotlight Balkan Countries in Travel Inspiration Thursday! The two I have been to are Dubrovnik, Croatia and Mostar, Bosnia. Both beautiful places.
In Dubrovnik, take the cable car for excellent views, wander the streets of the old city and definitely walk along the city walls.
In Mostar, the Mostar bridge draws bridge jumpers which are fun to watch, and the best views are from the top of the Koski Mehmed Pasha Mosque.
Which Balkan countries have you been to?
