The "Other Down Under" destination of New Zealand is on the bucket lists of many Americans -- and justly so. Problem is, New Zealand is a long way from anywhere U.S.A.

The Rationale
A cruise will visit several ports on the two islands of New Zealand, which is a great way to get a taste of the entire…

Our weekend outing to Lake Casitas, on an artificial island in a Ventura County reservoir some 80 miles south of Los Angeles, was my first camping trip since Girl Scouts, and this time there was no sit-upon or mess kit.

Our cruise only stopped for a short time in Miami, and we believed the best excursion to take was the airboat ride through the Everglades.
It wasn’t the only tour on offer. Miami was always a big draw for the rich and famous. There was a city tour which promised…

As a business owner with clients around the U.S., I occasionally hit the road for face-to-face confabs. So when I needed to meet with a new client in Baltimore, I researched hotels in Charm City where I could stay while taking care of biz.

I arrived in a quaint village in the French countryside and checked into a charming villa arranged by my travel agent.
Once I was settled, I made my way out to the balcony. It seemed to be floating on the beautiful fields of lavender and provided a scope of a wide expanse of vineyards in the distance.
I had already decided that all I wanted to do on this vacation was spend my mornings at a local café…
