Baby boomers, can you believe that it’s been two years? That’s right, this month My Itchy Travel Feet celebrates two years of publishing travel information for active baby boomers. Have you been inspired to go on a trip because of the words and photographs about our own baby boomer adventures? We hope so.

What’s an anniversary without a celebration? During the month of May, we’ll be reviewing an interesting line-up of travel products. The best part? Our readers will have a chance to win them.
