Island Windjammers runs just one itinerary right now – a round-trip from Grenada through the Grenadines. Luckily, it’s a great one for sailors and beach lovers alike, as the Grenadines are full of lovely areas to snorkel, swim and explore, including the beautiful-beyond-belief Tobago Cays.  What...

Leisure travel may have taken a hit in 2009, but sports tourism – where fans take to the road to follow their teams or go to special events such as college bowl games or spring training – is still booming. Scott McCartney of the Wall Street Journal’s Middle Seat had an excellent article...

My husband and I went to southeast Asia on our three-week honeymoon back in October 2007, so the report is a bit older – and longer – than others. We spent three full days in Siem Reap and visited Angkor Wat (touring with a guide), visited a school supported by the Ponheary Ly Foundation...

My trip report from St Kitts is up. Going into the trip, I didn’t know much about St. Kitts, other than it – along with sister island Nevis – was the smallest country in the Western Hemisphere. I discoverd that besides being beautfiful, the island has a rich and tragic history rooted...

                            With everything that’s been on my plate, it’s taken forever to write up the final notes from my October trip to Colonial Mexico. For our last stop on our four-day tour through central Mexico highlands, we spent two days in San Miguel de Allende....

I’ve put together two trip reports so far from my week in Mexico: Guadalajara and Guanajuato. San Miguel de Allende is still to come (and may have to wait until I get back from the Caribbean). I really loved this region of Mexico, Guanajuato in particular. I would love to go back and study Spanish...
