Pittsburgh 200: A Celebration of a Milestone
The land that would become the city of Pittsburgh was first occupied by European fur traders in 1717. The confluence of the Allegheny and Monongahela rivers became a vital trade and communications route between Quebec and French Louisiana. The Seven Years War (French and Indian War) lead to a succession of forts built by both French […]
Disconnecting to Reconnect
The last few weeks have been filled with work stress for one of us here at No Kids, Will Travel. We felt the need to do something different that would force two social media professionals to unplug for at least an hour or two. So, last Saturday after a night of tossing and turning because […]
Making Time for the City Frozen in It
We are only four months from our anniversary trip to Italy and we thought we’d share one of the pieces from our itinerary. We’ve tried to incorporate a visit to Pompeii on our previous visits to satisfy our love of history. The time and distance of Naples (Pompeii) from our beloved Tuscany has always become an […]
Saint John USVI: Affordable Luxury?
When you think of Saint John you think of idyllic landscapes, crystal clear water, an amazing Caribbean paradise and . . . that it’s expensive, really expensive. We at No Kids, Will Travel have taken that as a challenge, a challenge to find places to stay on a budget. Here we go… Cruz Bay Boutique […]
Airline Roundup
Have you ever looked at the Lufthansa logo and wondered, where did that come from? I get that it’s a bird and birds fly, but other than that what is it? Well, we recently found that out while pursuing the airline media sites and it’s an interesting story. The golden bird on the tail section […]
An Ocean-Going Viking is Nothing to Fear
Viking Cruises are best known for their leisurely river cruises that cater to a more leisurely crowd (and not necessarily the target audience of this blog). But the small river boat company is making some big waves in the cruise business with some much bigger boats. The Viking Sea, the second in a new class […]
We’re Just Window Shopping, Right?
We know it hasn’t been that long since we’ve written about sailing, but it is one of the things we love so it gets a lot of column inches. The best part of a town like Annapolis, MD is that it has more than one boat show per year. The shows aren’t small filler shows, […]
Is This Heaven? No, it’s Pittsburgh’s Bicycle Heaven
I stumbled across a unique spot in Pittsburgh the other day my attempts to unload some 1970s era bicycles. I imagined that it was going to be easy. I was going to go down to a bike shop about a mile from our apartment and drop them off where they would be recycled for parts […]
The Old History of an Old America
I love history and warm places, hence my love of Greece, Italy and Egypt. But did you know we have a 450 year old city in the United States? A city founded as the renaissance in Europe was only 60 years old. Amazing, right? The city of St. Augustine, Florida is just south of Jacksonville […]
Come Fly With Me…
I don’t think anyone said it better than Sinatra. If anyone’s voice evokes a sense of the golden age of air travel it’s Old Blue Eyes. I’m not just limiting that feeling of nostalgia to one song, either. Sinatra recorded an entire album of songs dedicated to travel (and associated pursuits like finding some exotic […]
