All things travel.
I’ve drawn a winner in last week’s contest to receive one free month of Rise, a one-on-one nutrition coaching app that I reviewed. Our winner is…. Marlene Marlene is challenged by gluten-free travel, particularly internationally. I loved her idea in the comments to print cards with dietary requirements to give to food servers. I’m newer…
I’m sure this one has made the rounds already, but it’s new to me. HT to my dear friend Guy Betsy for sharing it with me yesterday as it is totally what I needed after a day of flying in coach. Ah, the lure of cheap flights…. The featured performers are from a UK-based cabaret…
Don’t forget to enter for the free giveaway drawing for a one-month subscription to Rise – entries close at midnight tonight. Leave a comment on that post for your entry. Odds still look good right now! For other freebies, be sure you saw Saturday’s post – more goodies for the taking!
DFW Airport public transit finally became a reality this morning as the DART (Dallas Area Rapid Transit) Orange Line began running to and from DFW’s a Terminal A in the pre-dawn hours. The DFW station is the 62nd in the transit line’s 90 mile network which now covers many major destinations throughout the Dallas half…
It’s Sunday and I’m wondering exactly where my weekend has escaped too, something I do all too frequently. And then I remember that I fell into the rabbit hole of driving for UberX (including my live tweetalong last night which you can still read on Twitter via #virtualride) and keeping the content flowing here (something I do…
I have been known to do some crazy things just to satisfy my own curiosity about what something might be like. I also like to try new things and as a result, it has brought me some interesting adventures along the way. The latest of those ideas has been signing up to be an UberX…
We’ve talked about nutrition quite a bit here this week (when we weren’t talking about manufactured spending… wow, I really had no idea exactly how big that was until the comments started coming in!) And on the topic of nutrition, there’s some free stuff I want to make sure you’d seen! 1. I’m giving away one…
Mediterranean cruisers may be getting a bonus views with their summer cruise – scenic volcanic activity. That same volcano threatens air travel in Europe. Mount Etna is continuing to let off steam and has already caused some air travel delays for nearby air traffic. Volcanic activity poses an uncontrollable threat for air travel. During the 2010 volcanic eruptions…
Fans of the iconic yet campy show that ran from 1977 to 1987 can rejoice – the crew of The Love Boat is reuniting! Alas, it’s not for a new run of the series I faithfully watched with my babysitters (and later AS a babysitter) every Saturday night, but instead as the godparents of the…
My hotel reviews always cover what I actually see of a hotel. Due to my erratic travel schedule, that can often be a limited slice of hotel life as I frequently check in late and check out early. Nonetheless, that sometimes gives a truer portrait of what it is like to stay at a hotel, such as my recent…
Those are deviled eggs. I made them in the Charlottesville Airport one day when I couldn’t find a protein-filled lunch that met my dietary restrictions (no wheat, no corn, no cow milk, no yogurt, no coffee, no nitrates, no fun). Why I am I showing you my deviled eggs? Well, I think they display just…
I love to accessorize. And I hate to pack accessories for a trip because I love to have a great look for every outfit without hauling tons of options with me. I tried being the “simple” gal who just packed a classic necklace and a couple of earrings, but that’s just NOT me. I like…
