Tarpon Springs: Greek Town
When you travel to major cities in the United States and Canada, cities that have seen a lot of immigrants settle in them over the years, you tend to find places with heavy concentration of one ethnic group or another. These enclaves have names such as Chinatown in San Francisco, Greek Town in Chicago and Little […]
The Blossom and the Tourist
The District of Columbia isn’t short on tourist attractions. The Capitol, the White House, the Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, the museums of the Smithsonian Institution… they definitely needed one more reason — or should I say 3,700 more reasons — the cherry trees of the tidal basin. The original 3,020 cherry trees were a gift […]
Memories of Africa, A Year Later
A year ago we went on the adventure of a lifetime. I know that for a couple whose goal in life is to travel the world, the adventure of a lifetime, title is a little much. But this time last year we journeyed to Tanzania for our photo safari and are still amazed when we […]
Top Six Films Set in Tuscany
We’ve had a very busy last couple of weeks; there’s been a new job, a new apartment, a new city. We’ve both lived in the same town most of our lives so this has been a big change. The one thing we didn’t want to change was our dedication to at least post something up […]
Travel and Toilets
It’s a lesson every traveler must someday learn: toilets (and bathrooms in general) can vary greatly from one area to another. For us, it’s part of experiencing a new place (more on our experiences in a moment). Apparently some of the journalists who traveled to Sochi, Russia for the Olympic games hadn’t encountered this particular […]
Motorcycle to Oklahoma
A break from the guidebook vacation – a guest post from No Kids, Will Travel family-member Andrea Changuris: It was my boyfriend’s turn to pick our vacation and I was surprised with a motorcycle trip to Oklahoma. Yes, it was quite a surprise. We had one week off and we were going to visit his […]
Super Bowl Memories
Zeke’s father was fortunate enough to attend the Super Bowl in 1984. He shares his experience: The 1983-84 Redskins were one of the best Redskins teams ever. Their 38-9 loss would have been very difficult to take had I not physically been there to see it in person. That was one of the last seasons that I […]
What a Trip
“What the heck is that?” you ask? That’s what it looked like last night as we drove down the Pennsylvania Turnpike. For about 90 minutes I wondered if the state had snow plows. It was nearly as much fun as you’re imagining. The slick roads and intermittent white-out conditions got Zeke and I thinking about […]
A Painful Lesson
Last week we talked about a trip to Florida in Baseball Binge. My father thought it was a good idea, so he asked me, like always, to book him some tickets for a trip. I got the information from him over the phone and wrote it down. Then I followed up with him in person to […]
A Baseball Binge
The search for the sun and signs of spring weather are a recurring theme of this blog, mainly because of my personal dislike of the cold. Because of this bias I grasp for any hint of the warm weather to come. The first and earliest sign of the coming spring is when the birds begin […]
