Volare: My Baltimore/DC/NYC Vacation Tips

For our 5th anniversary I dragged my husband on a Baltimore/D.C./NYC trip. He’s a farm boy from Podunk, Utah who lives to hunt and owns his own lawn care business. Guess how much he loved our big city vacation??  I might have forced him to walk through one too many art galleries, but he’s a survivor! I love that boy.

It was my first time on an airplane. I've done the whole bus thing – my furthest was a round-trip ride from Utah to Illinois. And I've done plenty of road trips of the car variety. For our first anniversary we drove to Reno, then on to the Redwood forests, up to my brother’s house in Salem, OR, and then home again. That was probably my longest car trip. Growing up my dad drove us places – the furthest was to White Rock, British Columbia, just a few minutes across the Washington State/Canada border. It was a long ride in a Ford Taurus with my 6’5 brother taking up most of the leg room in the back seat. Still though, that was probably about the time when I realized I wanted to travel everywhere.

It’s been almost two years since our anniversary vacation, and I think it’s time to write down my travel tips before I forget all of my “dos and don’ts.” As I said, these are my tips for me to remember. You can read them and leave me more tips, but don’t be a hater.
