As if the almost 32,000 steps wasn't enough on the day before, our last day in New York was more walking. I honestly wouldn't do it differently! That said, maybe we'll experience the train system or a ride in a yellow cab one day but walking around such an amazing city is great ... there's … Continue reading New York City 2018 – Final Day

Not that we are gin drinkers … Continue reading Bombay Sapphire Gin Distillery
In June, I will have been married for 16, yes 16 years yet I remember the planning like it was yesterday!
