With our hotel just outside the arches, we are in the perfect location for exploring. Another charming British city. Named for it's Roman built baths, this area still draws many visitors for wellness in day spas. See what else this place has to offer!
We enjoyed a nice free breakfast at our hotel in Bournemouth… jumped in our rented car to head for two nights in Bath. Lots to see on our way… This photo is one hint of what we found today.
Visiting on a recommendation from a friend originally a Bristol native, we love exploring this beach resort! Ready with umbrellas, there was no need on this sun shiny day!
It it’s spring, we are traveling… we must get it in before the busy working summer! Because of our standby status, we had to take the first flight out of Houston and headed to Detroit. It looked like our best bet… what a great day for flying! Bumpy… and, we got First Class (domestic so more like business)
One has the option of packing more shoes when you only have to bring one of each… with a boot on one foot and a variety of shoes on the other, I was set! I also had covers to protect my boot, but I’m a bit of a baby so I didn’t dare to go through the mud of the fairgrounds!
It was a day of celebration! Friend and former boss, Bill, chose NOLA as the spot to celebrate his zero birthday. Great choice!
My broken foot made it back to Tahoe where it continued snowing and I hobbled through a few days of work. Then off to Jazz Fest! Music, music and more music… We caught the first flight of the day!
To our good fortune, Keukenhof Gardens opened a couple days before our arrival… this is a bonus post with photos of the flowers. That’s all it has… beautiful, colorful flowers!
It was explained to us that because the canals are in a “U” shape, there are easy “shortcuts” to getting from one place to another. With my foot in a boot, shortcuts were a necessity!
