Minneapolis is one of the most bike friendly cities in America, so it comes as no surprise that the two sister hotels, W Minneapolis and Le Méridien Chambers Minneapolis, launched a bike program this summer. The hotels both stocked up with custom designed bikes that...
Food and wine pairings are a common occurrence, but pairing food with beer isn't something that is done all too often. Sure, there are plenty of restaurants that suggest food and beer combinations, but creating an entire menu that revolves around harmonizing beer and food...
Museums are the perfect activity for rainy days, so that's exactly what we did when we found ourselves in the middle of a thunderstorm on our Virginia Beach trip. We decided to make our way to the Military Aviation Museum for a look around. I was...
We consumed some delicious food in Virginia Beach, and by some, I mean a lot. I love sampling local specialties when we travel, so a large percentage of our meals consisted of fresh seafood, and every meal left our mouths watering for more…although our waistlines...
One of the stops on our road trip through the northeastern United States was the 1000 Islands, an area that straddles the border between Ontario and New York. While we didn’t know much about the region prior to visiting, we quickly learned that we were about...

After zig zagging through the tiny streets of Old San Juan, we arrived at our meeting spot: the totem pole at Quincentennial Plaza. The town was relatively quiet as it was a Sunday morning; the quietness was much appreciated as we navigated the streets and...
Snorkeling at a mall, you say? Yes, you read that right. We went snorkeling at the Mall of America in the SEA LIFE Minnesota Aquarium, and it was quite the adventure. It had been years since we were last at the aquarium, but we were...
This isn’t your typical mall. The Mall of America, located in Bloomington, Minnesota, offers so much more than shopping. Think snorkeling in a giant aquarium, petting stingrays, riding roller coasters, flying across zip lines, mini golfing, bowling and more, and you will have an idea...
A sausage and gravy biscuit is assembled on the back of your hand, pop rocks are served that induce a stream of smoke out your nose, and a field trip is taken through the kitchen for a plate of steak and potatoes created one ingredient...
