Why do this? Why talk about where I go? Who cares? Well moms do.

Lets see. As a mom, a perfect vacation will go with absolutely no troubles, right? Airport security is a breeze, you have the easiest "scan" process, shoes on and off, easy. Next your flight is on time. Everyone waits their turn to board when their zone is actually called and doesn't hover around the gate when they are zone three, and they are still boarding priority seating.  You get your entire family seated and take off is pleasant and a perfect flight. As you land, everyone deplanes accordingly as you would in an orderly fashion. You go to retrieve your luggage at the baggage claim and it's the first one coming around on the carousel! Lovely. It's almost like birds are chirping and woodland creatures and singing songs in the background. You then go to your shuttle or rental car with no hiccups and are on your way to your resort. You arrive to a perfect hotel with your room ready, change into proper attire for a swim, everyone is happy and you post a great selfie with a fun hashtag best vacay ever.

Okay, I couldn't even type that without laughing hard. Yes I am a travel agent. Bonus if this blog helps me, but more bonus if my little craziness of a traveling life can help you. I have picked up little tricks here and there traveling with now a pre-teen, all women, a mother and mother-in-law at the same time, (heavy handed drinks were a must during that trip) family members, and a husband (which should be in it's own category) to help you have a vacation. Let me lay the story out for you how a typical travel day can go...….

You arrive to the airport via hotel shuttle, because getting everyone to the airport at 6am with a two hour drive in the winter, not happening. Plus they have the park and ride hotel discount! BONUS! First, the shuttle is freezing and the driver is scary. You finally arrive to no carts available outside, and your driver dropping everything at the curb! Thanks dude! You haul everything inside, no agents are open yet, except for the one at the far end, you haul your luggage all the way down there, and it's for handicapped assistance only, but they opened another ticket agent where you just were. Are you catching my drift? This is a true start to a vacation!

As moms and even dads, we just have to brush it off and move on! So with these little notes and reviews of food and hotels, I just hope that they can help you make decisions based on my honest and most humble feelings. Scary feelings are probably a better description, but hey, have to have some sort of sincerity!

All I can say for now, is welcome to my blog!
