Labor Day was first celebrated on September 5, 1882, in New York City, and it became a national holiday in the United States in 1894. We use it as the "end of summer vacation" which means it's time to book a fall break. :-) Wishing you a happy and fun Labor Day. #laborday #labordayweekend #labordayh

If Spartz learned that in school she was not listening very well that day. What the actual heck? How did someone that ignorant get elected?

In January we are headed off to Africa and a few far-away paradise islands. Our first stop will be Mauritius, a small island nation in the Indian Ocean. It's about 1200 miles off the east coast of Africa, not far from Madagascar. Six of us are going. Got tips? Let me know!

It's almost too late to see the fabulous tulips (and other spring flowers) in The Netherlands and Belgium for next year. The prime dates sell a year or more out. Let's talk now about 2026 for you. #tuliptime #rivercruises #thenetherlands #travel2026 #travelchangeslife

I do indeed realize this and am horrified over it. I tried every way I could to convince friends for Harris. I am heartbroken.

Like this blue? Let's find a beach in the Caribbean for you. It's still cool enough to get away to Aruba or Turks.

Summertime in Alaska can look like this! Not that much snow, and sort of brown. But there's also magnificent tall trees and Bald Eagles flying. I've traveled Alaska more than once, and can help you pick what works best for you. Tip: Book ahead or be left with not many options. sue@travelchangeslife.
