Exploring Geiranger

After leaving Sogndal we found ourselves heading north to our next location in Stryn. On the way up we decided to detour to Kjenndalsbreen, an offshoot of the Jotunheimen Glacier to check out the waterfall and glacier. The drive here was beautiful and when arrived we were surprised that we were the only ones here [...]

A Western Fjord Adventure

We spent several days in Sogndal staying at the Sogndal Fjordpanorama Airbnb with amazing views of the fjord. This was our base for a few days as we explored the area of Flåm and taking in what it had to offer. While in Flåm we took a boat cruise on the Nærøyfjord and were amazed [...]

Bergen to Sogndal and in between

We flew from West Sussex to Bergen, Norway and spent time walking the city center and checking out the harbor views of Bryggen. Rain is pretty typical in Bergen so we knew what to expect when we landed. We only had the afternoon and evening in Bergen before we left early the next morning for [...]

Anniversary Trip Update 2: Coldplay, Big Ben and Hamilton

Day 2, our reason for traveling to the UK, Coldplay at Wembley Stadium. When they announced they would be performing 10 shows at Wembley I just had to try. This resulted in 2 straight days of 2AM wake up calls to try and buy tickets, and ended in one tired, frustrated and empty handed fan. [...]

Day 1: Wembley: The search for the missing VRBO

Our vacation got off to a rough start soon after arriving in London. We were picked up by driver and headed to Wembley where we’d be spending 2 nights during our quick stopover. We had a few hours between getting picked up and when we could check into our VRBO that we thought we’d just [...]

A (not so) Relaxing Weekend in Las Vegas

NBA Basketball, Backstreet Boys and Lady Gaga In July, Jason and I took a long weekend trip to Vegas filled with more events than when we got married.  While going to Vegas in the middle of July is not typically something I would recommend unless you enjoy the heat, we made an exception when Lady [...]

A Trip to the Mile High City!

Time to cross another new destination off our travel list. Back in October 2024, Coldplay announced a US leg of their Music of the Spheres tour and I convinced Jason to try to get tickets with me. Since all cities were going on sale the same day, we made a plan to each try and [...]

Cinema Paradiso – A New (but old) Style of Movie Theater

"Why would you see a movie on vacation?" While having breakfast with some of the other guests at the Crosshill geo domes, a couple told us about their evening checking out the local movie theater. Now seeing a movie while on vacation isn’t normally something we’d do, however based on their recommendations, we just had [...]

Milford Sound…actually it’s a fiord

Towards the end of our trip, we finally made our way over to Milford Sound, my must see place for this trip. We drove from Invercargill and opted to stay 2 nights in Te Anau, the gateway to the Fiordland Nat’l Park, because there were more restaurants and accommodations. Te Anau is about 2 hours [...]
