Life is too short to be standing still! Follow me as I visit as many places as I can... food, shopping, destinations!! If that destination includes an Anaheim Ducks hockey game? Well, heck, that's even better.

Following the Hotel Nacional, Jimmy took us around the city, and then stopped at the Old Havana for lunch. We went to a touristy spot, and had lunch at the rooftop of the restaurant, before continuing a walking tour of the old part of the city. The walking […]
We made it to Havana, Cuba!! The cruise line took care of our Visa (cost $75, which was billed to our room). The “catch” in visiting Cuba was it had to be a cultural or educational visit, and there had to be a person to person interaction. My […]
Our first port was Key West, Florida. Stephen and I wandered with my parents along the Main Street, while my sister and brother in law went snorkeling or some water activity. There were two goals we had: 1) visit the Southmost point of the United States, and 2) […]
For the next 15 days, the Azamara Journey will be our home. Our ship is small compared to the typical cruise ships floating out there. Instead of housing 3000 passengers, the Journey had about 600 passengers. Our room was #7083 and we were located in the middle of […]
When I was younger, we usually went on a family vacation during Christmas. As I got older, it got harder to take the time off but this year we all went on cruise to Cuba, Colombia and the ABC islands in the Caribbean. We arrived Miami at 7:00 […]
I received a call from the Anaheim Ducks telling me a French sports magazine, L’Equipe was doing a story on the 25 years of the Mighty/ Anaheim Ducks. The writer wanted to interview a fan who followed the team on the road, and was an avid fan as […]
It’s the most wonderful time of the year… Disneyland Resort is in full holiday mode, and Disney California Adventure is celebrating the Festival of Holidays until January 8th. Throughout the park, there are food stands offering tasting size menus of food celebrated from around the world. Guests and […]
This is a late post, but back in September, Karen and I went to see Barry Manilow in concert. He’s playing at the Westgate Las Vegas through June 2019, and Karen’s brother was given free tickets (which he gave to us). Considering the post before this one was […]
I use the Total Rewards “loyalty” cards from the Caesar’s Entertainment properties, where you earn points for free food, rooms, shows, and for any of their casinos throughout the world. I was in Las Vegas to see Barry Manilow and was able to get a comp’d room at […]
Metallica was playing in Las Vegas the Monday after Thanksgiving. I was able to get seats through Citibank, in section 19, Row H. On the night of the event, we arrived at 5:45pm so we could get in line early for merchandise. Apparently, hundreds of other fans thought […]
On September 18th, Mickey celebrated his 90th birthday, and there were commemorative items at Disneyland available only that day. So, as foolish as we are, we decided to go to Disneyland on that day, only to find out that pretty much everyone thought of doing the same thing. […]
Dapper Day is a celebration of refined style of today and yesterday. The events are held at Disneyland, as well as Disney World, and Disney Paris, and other locations. From the Dapper Day website: What is DAPPER DAY? The DAPPER DAY organization produces events that let you “step […]
I don’t know about other sports clubs, but the Anaheim Ducks does a lot for their season ticket holders. On October 21, former Mighty Duck Paul Kariya had his number retired up in the rafters. On Monday, October 22nd, the Ducks allowed each season ticket account to get a professionally taken […]
On the Disneyland website, they had information on the Happiest Haunts Tour. It looked interesting, and I figured for $85 it must be a special tour… so I called guest services and grabbed the 1:05 tour for October 21st. As an annual passholder, I did get a discount […]
As a season ticket holder, one of the perks we get is a meet and greet with the Anaheim Ducks players and staff at the annual “Face-off Fest” (formerly known as “Break the Ice”). It used to be a 2 day event, now condensed into a 4-hour event. […]
The Pink Patch Project (#PinkPatchProject) is an innovative public awareness campaign designed to bring attention to the fight against breast cancer and to support breast cancer research organizations in combating this devastating disease. My agency is participating for the first time in this campaign. What is the Pink […]
Six years ago, we met here for lunch. Porto’s must have amazing food, because our date ended up being a 4 hour meal. To be fair, yes their food is really that good.
