Everything You Need to Know About Traveling Pregnant
Being pregnant isn't fun. There's morning sickness, the inability to consume alcohol, and that weird heaviness you might feel in your groin when you reach later months before the baby is born.

So you are thinking about going to Disney World. Or maybe you have a gone a couple of times and feel pretty confident. Fantastic. The biggest question is if you have started your planning and what are you going to do when you get there. If you have a ton of disposable income and throw money at the park, this article may not be for you as you probably have the park putting together your itinerary now. But if you are an average person and want to make this dream happen without breaking the bank, then this series is for you. You may still get some pointers over how to get the most out of your day for each park.

Take 1 Wally World... here we come... Look kids! Big Ben! Parliament! We are so the Griswalds..... So, I'll start with the good news. We were grateful to have made it from Southern California to Utah before sunrise. We left a little late, as often happens with the hustle and bustle of leaving the house with a family. Our 7 hour drive often stretches to 8 with traffic and sometimes even 9 with the frequent potty and refueling stops. So, we were quite happy to make good time and get there with some sleep inducing darkness left to help us harness the zzzz's.

As someone who has visited Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida four times now, I consider myself somewhat of an expert, as do other people. I find myself constantly giving advice, directions and have even been mistaken as a cast member a few times.

I was in a Barnes & Noble one day back in the 90s. I was doing some Christmas shopping. I’m standing in the biographies section, spending more time on my favorite genre and thinking more about what I would like to read rather than what would make a nice gift. I have my neck craned so I can read the vertical titles. That’s when I see a thick new biography on Walt Disney. My mind was instantly transported back to my youth.
Bliss
I'm living in Abbotsford, British Columbia with my older brother in a cheap rent, two bedroom apartment in a bit of a problematic neighbourhood. It's probably the one thing that makes me feel grateful that up till this point, I've lived a pretty sheltered life.
Take Grandma Glamping!
Whether it's a mini break to the big city, an all inclusive getaway to paradise or a staycation beside the sea, there is no denying the fact that everybody loves a holiday.
Michelle HunterPublished 7 years ago in WanderTravels with My Parents: Burgundy, France
My parents have always been great travellers, it's one of the gifts that they've given us as a family is a love of travel and the confidence to go out and experience the world.

Growing up, I never believed in ghosts or hauntings, until my adult years in Arizona when I decided to make a career for myself in the healthcare industry and when both my parents became ill and passed away. When skeptics say, "I have to see it to believe it," I get it. I was one of those skeptics who had to see it to believe it.
Kate AdamsPublished 7 years ago in WanderVisiting Billings Montana
I recently visited Billings Montana to see Garth Brooks in concert and take in a few other sites and locations. First and foremost the concert was awesome, just like his show I went to in Vegas years ago. This show was at the Metra, which hosts other venues as well. During my stay, I also went to a car show and a rodeo as well as one other concert. This facility also hosts dog shows for the dog lover in you, however, there weren't any shows scheduled during my visit. The Metra is set up with rolling hills around it and is close to Yellowstone River, which I have heard from the locals is a good place to go for fishing and quiet time.
Kate AdamsPublished 7 years ago in WanderA Trip to Arkansas
My kids and I went on a trip to Murfreesboro, Arkansas. We started out early in the morning before sunrise since we live in Northeast Mississippi. I chose to take Highway 82 West since it goes all the way across Mississippi, and into Arkansas. We also dropped off some computers at a friend's house in Winona, MS to be fixed while we were on our trip. What's fun about going on a trip like this is finding your way on a map, and seeing places you have never been. Not the Interstates...just regular State highways.

One thing that I can’t stand is how we seem to have lost even the illusion of “customer service” with such an important industry as Air Travel. Over the years the process became more miserable, and the space became more crowded. Somewhere along the way, we became cattle that could pay their own way. I recently traveled from San Diego to North Carolina with my girlfriend, Gigi and the Wee Lad. As things fell apart en route, Southwest Airlines made no moves to help the passengers with contingencies. Our trip ended with me keeping watch over a sleeping nine-year-old and his mother, in a strange airport.
