The headline says it all. We're a gay/queer (LGBTQ for anyone searching for that keyword!) couple looking to take our babymoon in late May or possibly early June and narrowed it down to Spain and Italy. We want to be someplace where we don't have to hide holding hands, where we can relax, see beautiful buildings and nature and eat well and relax. W... Read More |

DS rang last evening with the exciting news that he has been offered his dream job, and the assigned field office is...San Francisco.
We are thrilled for him, of course. But the thing is...San Francisco and the Bay Area aren't even on the fourth alternate backup list of Top 100 places I desire to visit. I went up once to view the Golden Gate Bri... Read More |

We can go for either two or three weeks - we tend to be slow travelers and never run out of things to do, but just aren't sure about this one. We're... Read More |

Hi all! I'd like to finalize my Southwest trip but I'd like to hear thoughts before I move forward. A few things--I know it's a hot time of year but August is the only time we can get here. And I realize ending up in California is a bit unusual, but we love San Diego and are trying to make this work. Is this reasonable? Anything to add/remove?

I am wondering if things progress, will travel insurance cover a cancellation? Allianz? We are going to Sicily in a month. Of course, nobody has a crystal ball as to how thing will progress but I remember having to cancel my trip after the tsunami in Japan and it wasn't as easy as I had hoped it would be.

Hello! I’m a cancer patient traveling with my daughter for a memory-making dream trip to Paris. She doesn’t mind where we stay, but I would like 2 nights in a 5 star hotel. We would require NON-smoking, a pool, and twin or double beds. (I do not want her to end up on a sofa bed.) We could afford the lower end rooms at these properties.

Now we’ll be staying in a gite for the first time, with a very nice kitchen. I’d like to cook some of the things I see in markets and grocery stores.

I keep hearing it is amazing and no doubt it is and I will have my mind changed but places like the castle & romantic roads and the Black Forest area seem to peak my enthusiasm.
