VIDEO: Road Trip Through The South
The video is finally here! Watch our great New Years road trip through the south! We had a fantastic time and are already planning our next trip back. The cabin needs to be furnished and we have a few pieces, between out storage unit and Rob’s mom, to make it a little more comfortable. Maybe…

Honky Tonkin Our Way Into 2020
What a morning it was on the 1st of January 2020. There was challah french toast, mimosas and oh so yummy bacon. It’s great to have family all over when you love to travel. Not only do you get a chance to visit them, but they will always have an air mattress for you to…

Driving to Nashville
How we love this mountain air. We can breath so much easier up here. It’s too bad we’re so far from a cruise port and a boat ramp to launch Luna or we would be up here in a heart beat! I pictured us being those snow bird couples that contribute to the winter traffic…

Spending the Day in Blairsville and Blue Ridge Georgia
Day 2 in the North Georgia Mountains started a little later than we liked. For some reason when we are on a long vacation (excluding a cruise) we immediately adjust our sleep schedule to falling asleep sleep at 2am and waking up at 10am. But that’s why we go to the cabin at the end…

Hello North Georgia
We arrived to the cabin at close to 1:30am this morning with some Cheetos and the only fast food restaurant we found open at 11:15pm, Taco Bell, in our bellies. Luckily we left the place tidy, when we left last year, that setting the bed and cleaning up the master bathroom wasn’t too horrible. A…

Where does time go?
Life has been a bit crazy for us this last year. Our Disney groups, blog and YouTube have been a bit demanding with all the new lands and rides opening up requiring us to spend more of our weekends at the parks (It’s such a tragedy…we know). Most importantly, Rob’s mother has been going through…

Dolce Far Niente
Dolce Far Niente – What does that mean? The best way I can translate this Italian concept is: The Sweetness of Doing Nothing. We did’t plan anything for this Sunday other than packing the radio and a cooler full of water and beer. A strange concept for most people these days with life being the…

We started our way to the docks to tour any sailing vessels on display. Watch the video here First up, the Leopard 58 Sailing Catamaran. This very…

2019 Ft. Lauderdale Boat Show Favorites
At last, the 2019 Ft. Lauderdale International Boat Show is back for its 60th year and we spent today searching for unique finds. But before we get into that, let’s talk quickly about parking and getting around the Ft. Lauderdale area if you plan on visiting the boat show this year. Parking and getting around…

Hanging at Walt Disney World for Independence Day and Apple’s Birthday
The first thing anyone would say when they found out we were spending 4th of July weekend at Disney was “hell no” or “you guys are crazy!” Independence Day at the parks is expected to be insanely busy especially when the fireworks are to go off. But if it is one thing Disney knows how…

Camping on Our Catalina 22 Sailboat
Now that we have new (to us) cushions for Luna our plan is to try them out. It took forever to get the covers off the cushions and dry them out. The zippers were all jammed and it took a lot of WD-40 and messing with them using pliers but we got them to open…

Dumping Our Boat
After stripping “Freebie” for all she’s worth, and obtaining several thousand dollars worth of things, we couldn’t give the hull away. The only option left was to take her to the county dump. We’re grateful to the couple who gave her to us but the reality was she was very old and not in the best…

New Cushions for Luna
Since Luna was still anchored we decided to bring some of our new treasures to her and hang out for the evening. We slip our new cushions into the v-berth of our 1983 Catalina 22 and see if we can sleep 2 adults comfortably. Watch and find out! See you on our next adventure! Follow…

We Got a Free Boat!
We Got a Catalina 22 for free! A very generous couple gave us a 1973 Catalina 22 with no strings attached and it has quite a few of the very expensive parts we’ve been missing from Luna. Watch it here! Luckily Rob likes to take a peak at all the sites and see whats for…
