Yesterday, I wrote a post about how excited I was to see all of those seals in Santa Cruz. Little did I know that I would be seeing way more seals today on Carmel's famous 17 Mile Drive. Golf enthusiasts love this drive because you get to see three exquisite golf courses, including the world […]
Seals in Santa Cruz From my previous blog posts, you may have inferred that I love monkeys. But did you know that I also love seals? The seal obsession started the last time I was in California, which was two years ago. I was asking the hotel concierge what sights to see on the drive […]
We arrived in Half Moon Bay, CA, last night, but it was too dark to see anything. We had a good flight from JFK to SFO on Jet Blue — all those good Thursday night TV shows helped the flight go by quickly — and got our rental car without any problems. By the time […]
(photo of Snowbird/Alta by Nickehret/Flickr) The ski/snowboard season may be wrapping up, but someone must have forgotten to tell Utah because it's still getting tons of snow. Alta and Snowbird have gotten 12 feet of snow in the past 12 days, and the Park City resorts aren't doing too bad either. If you want to […]
Right now, the world’s largest parade is taking place: the 248th St. Partick’s Day Parade in New York City. It’s a beautiful day in NYC, and I enjoyed being one of the estimated 2 million people who watch the parade — especially because I was standing toward the end of the route near the Metropolitan […]

A big part of that is because it's an intermediate skier's paradise with plenty of long but challenging enough blue runs. Advanced skiers won't get bored though — […]
Trina Mezzacappa covers what’s hot and happening on the NYC nightlife scene on her blog Love, Your Favorite City Girl. But even this girl about town needs to take a break sometimes. And when she does, she escapes the bustle of the city by heading north to a quiet little town in Vermont called Lydonville […]
On Sunday, I took the express train to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyllllandysiliogogogoch. And by that I mean that I took the No. 4 express subway train in NYC to the Financial District where a replica of the world’s longest village/train station sign is hanging out for the month of March in the British Memorial Garden at Hanover Square […]
Guest blogger Kathryn Vercillo says San Francisco is one of the sexiest city in the world. And she should know. She's got a blog called San Francisco is Sexy that covers everything from burlesque to romantic restaurants to exotic art to X-rated events that could only happen in the City by the Bay. San Francisco […]
I don’t think the Hawaii Chamber of Commerce is going to be a big fan of Saturday Night Live‘s sketch about two disgruntled employees (guest host Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson” and cast member Fred Armisen) who are not in the mood to be entertaining tourists in a restaurant on Kauai. The Rock dances in a […]
