Ocean View Hotels I’ve been getting a lot of requests from people for ocean view hotels – either in specific locations or anywhere in the world. We love hotels with good views, especially with kids. If we’re somewhere with young kids and they need downtime in the middle of the… Read More
Cool Countries to Visit Google sent me a report showing that people have been finding this website by searching for “coolest countries to visit” and “cool countries to visit” which is funny, because I’ve never before written about the coolest countries to visit. So here you go – a post… Read More
