It was warm with people, the […]

A Rummymoon at Sea

Do you hate cruising? For years, I thought I did, too. I went on a transatlantic cruise as a teenager, and by about the fourth overcast, 50°F day, I was scanning the horizon for icebergs, because an emergency evacuation would at least have been something to do.

Years later, I went on a booze cruise out of Los Angeles. That jaunt didn’t include much time on land, either. When we did disembark, it was in Ensenada, Mexico, which is essentially a dusty, tequila-soaked suburb of San Diego whose name, I’m pretty sure, means “three-day hangover” in Spanish.

How to Survive Traveling this Thanksgiving

It’s the time of the year where we all gather around the hearth and the dining room table to get together with friends and family, which often involves packing your bags and yourself into a car, plane or train.

This coming Wednesday, when the Thanksgiving holiday weekend kicks off, 46.3 million people will travel home (more than 50 miles from their own home) to sit around the family table for turkey, cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie and other holiday favorites. This is the largest migration home for the holidays since 2007 and a 4.6% increase from 2013, according to AAA.
