Why it’s Even More Important to Book Your Next Vacation with a Travel Professional

Some people do love to research and take care of the details of their own trip, and that’s great.  But in the post-COVID world (if we ever get there!), there are so many [...]

Visiting Walt Disney World During COVID

You probably know that Walt Disney World opened up again last month, after being closed for four months.  If you’ve wondered what’s happening there since they reopened, my family visited last month.  We took our twin girls on a surprise trip before they left for college, and we had a wonderful time! New COVID policies: Masks must be worn by all kids 2 and over. You must wear your mask at all times inside the parks, except when you are eating or drinking while staying stationary.  You cannot walk around the parks with your mask off drinking or eating.  Cast [...]

Is Now the Perfect Time to Go to Walt Disney World?

As you may know, Walt Disney World opened up to guests again recently.  Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom opened on July 11, and Epcot and Hollywood Studios opened on July 15.  There are new policies and procedures in place to keep guests safe, including masks worn by all guests, social distancing in the attraction queues, mobile ordering at restaurants, and more.  Disney is also requiring a reservation to get into the parks each day, which drastically reduces the number of guests at the parks.  Because of this, the crowds at all four Walt Disney World parks are at record [...]

Take a Tour of Yellowstone National Park

If you’ve never visited one of the US National Parks, you are missing out on some of the most beautiful scenery in the world.  From the Grand Canyon to the redwoods in Yosemite, there are many sites to behold.  But getting around a national park can be a lot of planning.  Did you know that you usually need to plan your trip at least a year in advance to stay in one of the lodges in Yellowstone? If you’d like to let someone else do the planning so that you can just relax and enjoy, then a National Park [...]

Explore a National Park!

Taking a vacation may look a little different for you this year. Maybe you want to stay closer to home, or maybe you’d rather travel to a place with fewer crowds. Exploring a National Park (or 2) may just be the vacation you’ve been looking for! The United States has established 62 unique national parks, plus another 350 national monuments, seashores, battlefields, recreation areas, parkways, etc. Our National Parks can be found in 29 states plus American Samoa and the US Virgin Islands. What I love most about the National Park system is that each one is so unique. [...]
