Hello all! If the stars align, I'm going to Italy next May, and I'm currently asking for the time off. I think I would like to leave on Sunday, May 1, which would mean arriving on Monday, May 2. However, will this be the official Labor Day celebration day, as it would be in the US if a holiday fell on a Sunday? I don't want to arrive on a holid... Read More

Hi folks:
I am speaking at a conference in Basel at the end of August and want to add on a few days in Switzerland. Lucerne looks to be a top option. To see the highlights (no major hiking) is two days enough? Are the experiences of Mount Pilatus and Mount Rigi different enough so we should make sure we have time to do both?
Thank you,
Ken Read More

Laval is a prosperous town of about 50,000 people, birthplace of Le Douanier Rousseau. It's not on most tourists' radar but it has a lot going for it and is well worth a visit.
A friend sent me this link to the 2021 Christmas Lumières. There are lights all over the downtown as well as animations ( un mapping) on the face of the Chateau Neu... Read More

I don’t really have a good reason for not posting any trip reports in the past many years. It’s not for a lack of travel. DW and me (DH) have been on a dozen recent trips including Oaxaca, Mex City, Cabo, Croatia, Austria, Switzerland, Australia, Hawaii (3x), Colorado, Utah to name a few. Maybe it’s because good reports that actually benefit reader... Read More

Let’s say for the 2022 Mediterranean cruise season (or anywhere really) you’re on a cruise ship that mandates the vaccine. I assume they would do testing before and after the cruise like they just did on the celebrity millennium fully vaccinated cruise. The problem here is you and your family can be fully vaccinated, an... Read More

I am not new to traveling in Europe, but I am new to cruising. I can only book a forward cabin on Seabourne. I have read that this is the worst place to be in a ship, but I believe that all the cabins are forward on this ship. Are the newer ships smoother? I noticed they have some of their most expensive suites in the forward section. An... Read More
