I enjoy wearing jewelry, even when I’m traveling. But that jewelry needs to be understated so as not to attract attention. Although costume jewelry is the prudent choice for travel, I still want it to look classy, not cheap. Joesph Nogucci bracelets fits my boomer traveler parameters. I’m so happy that the company invited me to […]

A Winter Trip to Glacier National Park
If you’re looking for things to do on a Glacier National Park winter trip, you’ll be surprised at how much there is to do. Inside the park, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, and winter hiking provide a beautiful winter experience. Or you could just admire the scenery. Winter is a fine time to visit this lovely […]
Seeing the Light in Antarctica’s Neumayer Channel
We hadn’t head of Neumayer Channel until the day we cruised through it on an Antarctica cruise. What a beautiful surprise this travel experience turned out to be. When Alan and I cruised in Antarctica on Seabourn Quest, we expected to see mammoth icebergs, stunning scenery, and cute penguins waddling around. But the other worldliness […]
Swimming with Stingrays in Moorea
Swimming with stingrays is our favorite South Pacific cruise excursion. Period. Alan and I have experienced this fun adventure twice in Moorea, while snorkeling in Bora Bora, with more opportunities to come as we travel often in the South Pacific. This water adventure is doable for most baby boomers. If you can climb the ladder […]

But what does adult coloring have to do with active travel for boomers? I use the hobby to relax during stressful travel situations. And it’s […]
Antarctica in Video
This article is brought to you by Animoto. Make great videos. Easily. Confession time. Alan and I take tons of photos and videos. But besides using them in our articles or on social media, we rarely do anything with them. For instance, when family and friends asked to see more of our Antarctica cruise photos, […]
Spend a day in Old Salem Near Winston-Salem, NC
I had driven by Old Salem Museum & Gardens (official website) many times on trips to Winston-Salem, North Carolina, to watch Georgia Tech play Wake Forest in football. The journey was only a few hours from my home in Roanoke, Virginia. But, for one reason or another, I never took the time to visit Old […]
6 Questions About Cruising to Antarctica
After Alan and I returned from cruising to Antarctica, we kept asking each other, “Did we really go there?” And, now, the trip seems so distant. Perhaps it’s that our senses were overloaded so it was hard to process all that we experienced on this trip of a lifetime that’s long been at the top […]
Cruising to El Brujo Glacier
We cruised to El Brujo Glacier as part of an extended cruise to Antarctica. This beautiful site certainly whet our appetites for what was to come. Want to make your holiday cruise a white one (or blue in this case)? Choose an itinerary that visits a glacier. When Alan and I sailed in South America […]
