About this travel blog:

JD wasn't much of a traveler when I first met him.  Soon after we started dating, I traveled to South Korea to fulfill a two-year teaching contract.  He flew halfway around the world to tell me that he couldn't live without me.  After his proposal, on several different occasions before my contract was over, we traveled together to China (Beijing, Xian & Shanghai) and Japan (Tokyo & Kyoto). Sometime in the near future, I'll be trying to catch up on the reporting of all our travels prior to this year (1993-2013).
We have 3 basic types of travel we enjoy.
We love our beach weeks--JD and I  were married at Myrtle Beach when I returned from Korea and love to spend time there.  We always spend one week in the summer and travel to that and other beaches occasionally during the year.
Our second type of travel is our explore the USA/Canada travel. Each year we take a week or two and travel to a different US and/or Canadian destination.  Sometimes it's a road trip and sometimes we fly or sail.  We're also looking into taking a rail trip.
And our third  travel type is to foreign destinations.  We have each created our travel "bucket list" and take turns selecting destinations. Most of that travel involves a cruise of some sort.

What I'd like to do here is share travel stories, tips, pictures. I'd also like to be of help to anyone who has general travel questions or questions about the places we've been.
