Thinking about a quick weekend getaway to Carmel/Monterey for two. Have visited many times but not for a few years and certainly not during this pandemic. Considering staying at The Gosby or Seven Gables or Green Gables. Possibly Vagabond house in Carmel. Any thoughts? Will be dining for one meal at Roys. Any other recommendations for good outdoor...

We've canceled our travel plans for this year, sadly, so I've started to dream about next year already. Does anyone know how hard it is to travel from Grindelwald to Chanonix "the back way" -- basically as the crow flies over the mountains? Of course there's a train via Geneva but I think a bus ride (or car rental) through the mountains would be... Read More

We're exploring the idea of renting out our home and finding a well located base within New Zealand to explore the country and its people. We're of course attracted to the landscape and love to hike and paddle board and kayak and canoe and golf. Not necessarily in that order. I guess we wonder if anyone seeing this thread has had a similar lengt... Read More

A friend of mine told me she heard that Times Square is turning into a drug den with people openly shooting up. I can't find anything on this except for Fox and the New York Post (which I don't trust to say the least) . If anyone is in New York, I'd like to know their take on this. Read More

I know that "best time" questions are fraught with uncertainties as to weather. But given best guess, can you Norway experts give me a hand here. I am planning a trip on Hurtigurten Expedition for 2021 after my plans were destroyed for 2020. I am not interested in northern lights. My window is May through September. We are late 70's (hate to sa... Read More

This was the most luxurious trip out of all the trips that we had taken. It was a lot more relax and at a slower pace compared to other trips that we had taken for oversea trips in a two week period. We used points to fly in to Munich airport, arriving in the morning, and then took the train S1 to the city HBF. We stored our luggage for a day i... Read More

We received several quotes and the best by far was from Cruises-N-... Read More
