We're taking a break from real life and going on an epic road trip: around the world in two years.
Someone is missing from this picture. Shefler has joined us and we are magnificently seven, but there is still someone missing. And that person’s birthday is today! That’s right, free Slurpie day. You guessed it, it’s Aunt Pei Pei! We think baby Shefler gave her that name at some point, but we’re not sure. Anyway, […]
What can I say about New York City that hasn’t already been said? I love this place. It has that “everything” quality I so admire. In spite of the fact that we were staying in Crown Heights, spending at least two hours a day on the subway, and experiencing weather of 90+ degrees and 90+ […]
Hello there, blog readers. I realize you haven’t heard from me since the beginning of this trip. This is not because of a lack of interest in participating in this particular project, but because I’ve frankly been a bit distracted. You see, in addition to being the husband and father in this operation, as the […]
So just left Canada 🙁 and I love it especially the food this article is about how much better Candian fast food chains are than American fast food chains. Just kidding(TRUE), but it is about how delicious canadian fast food chains are. And they are delicious very delicious. Boston Pizza, A&W, White Spot and […]
A dear and thoughtful friend of mine created this collage for us as part of a farewell photo album. I’ll be returning to it in future posts as it is so spot-on insightful about all of us, but for now just notice the dream that is pictured for me, the scene from “The Sound of […]
Suffice it to say that things are pretty busy for us. In an ideal world, I would have carefully researched every city we will be visiting to find out which is the top-rated boutique ice cream parlor, the most authentic farm tour, the best museum for local art, etc, etc. In the real world, I […]
When you are road tripping the entire west-to-east breadth of Canada, there are some bits (just like in the US) that are a little monotonous scenery-wise. Not to say that those bits are not good to see or incredibly important from the standpoint of supporting our existence in the style to which we are accustomed, […]
Canadian Foods (CARL FAMILY RATING SYSTEM SIX CHICKENS 1-6 CHICKENS) My good friend from school, Oliver Reid gifted me some Canadian money to spend on the foods and delights you can only find in Canada. He suggested Tim Hortons, poutine, and ketchup chips, and you’d best believe that we are going to try all three […]
Let me start by saying that if you haven’t yet, in your life, done the drive from Jasper to Banff in the Canadian Rockies, I recommend that you drop whatever you’re doing right now, cancel those tickets to Tahiti or wherever you’re going next vacation and get on it. It’s really that beautiful. As usual, […]
One thing I have been thinking a lot about is trying to live somewhat regular lives as opposed to just being in vacation mode while travelling. This means finding time for work, exercise, play that does not involve sightseeing, and housekeeping. I don’t know about you, but when we are on vacation, healthy eating is […]
